Abstract: A French press coffee maker 200 having a coffee grounds basket is provided. The coffee grounds basket 100 is a completely contained mesh basket (14-19) that enables the placement of coffee grounds therein, while completely preventing loose coffee grounds from physically mixing with the water that ultimately becomes the coffee the user drinks. In this manner, not only is the coffee more pure, but cleaning the device is made easier and simpler by maintaining the used coffee grounds separate and apart from the carafe/container within which it is positioned during use.

Abstract: A French press coffee maker having a carafe with a removable bottom portion is disclosed. The bottom of the carafe is open and a bottom portion is removably secured to the open bottom of the same. A seal ring is positioned between the bottom portion and the open bottom of the carafe to provide a liquid tight seal once connected. In this manner, cleaning the device is made easier and simpler by maintaining enabling the removal of the user coffee grounds from the bottom of the carafe.

Abstract: Emissions from the primary combustion process are captured, cooled (in order to avoid premature combustion before reaching the combustion chamber), compressed, mixed with Magnegas, and then re-combusted in a secondary combustion chamber.
