Reply to comment by psimian in Stainless steel Gator french press by flames_32

All of this is true, but you actually have to do it. I use the Coffee Gator insulated press, and it's just easy. Usually I pour the hot water, take the press and a cup back to my desk, start a zoom meeting, and press/drink/refill my cup throughout the meeting.

Depends on the kind of person you are. If you're thinking, "why are you so lazy? Just get the thermos." Then get a thermos. If instead you're thinking, "oh yeah, one extra step, I probably won't do it most of the time, and then I'll have to clean another thing." Then get the insulated press.

Clean my thermos? Clearly you overestimate me.

But yeah, it's a complicated equation based on how hot you need your coffee stay, how likely you are to use a thermos, and how much you want to spend.

Note: when the press/thermos gets to the point of being embarrassingly dirty, Astonish: Clean and Revive gets rid of all the scum with no effort. It's overpriced so I don't use it very often, but that stuff is incredible when it comes to cleaning old coffee/tea residue.
