Well a typical French press only makes three or four cups worth of coffee at a time anyway, so that's not going to sit around all that long, especially if you're not the only coffee drinker in the house.

We used to French press, but the coffee would always dip to slightly below ideal temperature by the second cup, so when our last carafe broke we never bothered replacing it. She drinks drip now and I use an Aero.

Also, 'artisanal' salts like Himalayan pink often come in large grains and need grinding. I don't personally believe they're really appreciably different from what you get in a canister of Morton's, but but some people swear by them.

That's one thicc dune.
