Sometimes French Press coffee makers are just too big. If you live alone, you may find that you waste coffee because you’re only drinking enough for one person, and a lot of coffee makers come in larger sizes.
We put together a list of the 4 best french presses for a single person so you won’t waste your time or money.

Frieling’s beautiful stainless steel french presses are perfect for single person coffee makers.
Their design is a favorite among our entire staff and is offered in a size as small as 8 oz and as big as 44 oz.
We recommend the 8, 17, or 23 ounce french press for making one to two cups of coffee a day.

Bodum French Presses are always a favorite among our members, and they offer a 4-cup french press coffee maker for those of you who want to make just a couple of cups in the morning.
The Bodum Chambord also comes in an 8-cup option.

The Aeropress is probably the easiest brewer for single users. It is small and compact, so as well as being good for making a small amount of coffee, it’s also great for travel!
An Aeropress can brew up to 8 oz of coffee, which can be used as a concentrate and stretched with water or milk.

The Clever Dripper is a pourover style cone dripper that is fundamentally different than a french press.
You can use the Clever Dripper with paper cone filters for a smooth tasting cup of coffee. It’s perfect for making one or two cups of coffee in the morning.
