  • Patent number: 9320383
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a French press combination grinder, filter, and drinking vessel, and method of making coffee. The system has a motor base, a container body, and two selectively removable container bases. The first removable container base has a blade, and the second removable container base has a plunger and filtering unit. Coffee beans are placed in the container body and ground when the first selectively removable container base is attached to the container body. Then, after the coffee is ground, the first base is removed and hot water is poured into the container body. The user then attaches the second container base and depresses the filtering unit to separate the coffee slurry into a liquid portion on top and coffee grounds portion on the bottom. The user may then drink the coffee directly from the same container that ground and filtered the coffee beans.
