A cafetière (French press) steeps coarsely ground coffee in hot water; then a metal mesh filter is pressed down to hold back the grounds. With no paper filter, more of the coffee's oils and fine particles reach the cup, which gives a fuller body than pour-over. This page lists cafetière coffee beans that the roaster itself recommends for a cafetière or French press. The brew method is read from the roaster's description by AI and labelled as such. Coffees for which the roaster names no brew method are not included, although many of them would work in a press too.

Light and darker roasts both work in a cafetière. If the cup tastes muddy or bitter, grind coarser and press gently; if it tastes thin, grind a little finer or let it steep longer. Many coffees here are also recommended for other methods, so for more choice see filter coffee beans. An even, coarse grind helps in a press; the guide on choosing a grinder for filter coffee covers what to look for. To browse everything, compare coffee beans from UK roasters.
