Bodum French press; *4-cup; 17-oz. 

Famous for their perfect use as a coffee-maker; these French presses are a great way to serves yerba mate tea as well.  We have many clients who swear by them.  You can use a little bit less yerba than you would coffee; strength dependent upon the user.  We use any of the "despaladas" with these--but for a milder flavor use the regular "con palo".  A less bitter flavor is obtained by not over-heating the water.  Coffee instructions included.

*[Note that the Europeans in their obvious jealousy of our homey and colloquial cowboy system have used a "cup" measurement--but to be distinct and modest they have made it only a bit more than half of what the U.S. measure is.]
