Coffee Catcher "How To" Sighting!

The Coffee Catcher "How To" Video is being spread around the blogosphere.  We've noticed it being posted in a couple of places.  Seems to us that French Press users are becoming curious on how exactly the little device works.  Well, check it out for yourself:

Coffee Catcher and grounds

So, the question was recently asked of us: "Will the Coffee Catcher hook work if I use a lot of grounds in my French Press?"

The answer is yes!  We recommend aligning the catches of the Catcher Disk so that they line up with the handle and spout of your French Press.  That way, it's easy to hook into the catches on the Catcher Disk even if they are hidden beneath a heavy batch of coffee grounds!  We've designed the hook and catch precisely so that the two will connect solidly, yet be easy to find by feel.

Plus, lining up your Catcher Disk with the handle and spout of the French Press maximizes the disk's ability to capture and retain the bitter, over-brewed coffee tail at the bottom of the press. The bitterness stays trapped in the carafe and only delicous coffee goes in your cup.

no one is safe...

Our founder John Custer is currently wishing he was in Seattle where the Coffee Catcher samples are being produced and distributed.  While Seattle-based founder Nate Jones is enjoying the Coffee Catcher on a daily basis, John is still struggling with cleaning his French Press the old fashioned way.  At least he only has to endure until the Coffee Catcher ships in April.  But in the meantime, check out John's latest cry of agony, received in the Seattle office via email this weekend:

"DADFREAKINBLASTIT!!!  I BROKE MY FRENCH PRESS THIS MORNING, AND I JUST BROUGHT BACK A LOAD OF BEANS FROM INDONESIA!   I CAN'T WAIT TILL OUR PRESS COMES OUT TO REPLACE IT.    GRRR.....:-("

 Hang in there, John!  Help is on the way.
