La Cafetera francesa, de pistón o prensa francesa, permite preparar café en forma sencilla y manteniendo todos los aceites del café, haciéndolo muy suave y delicioso. Esta cafetera pese a que fue una invención italiana, fue popularizada por los franceses, de ahí su nombre. El café requiere ser molido con grano grande para que no traspase el filtro. La preparación es relativamente lenta y sencilla; sólo se vierte agua caliente sobre el café molido y se espera 4 minutos. Luego se comprime lentamente con la prensa o pistón. También sirve para preparar té u otras infusiones de hierbas. 5, record 5, Spanish, - cafetera%20francesa

En las cafeteras de filtro, el agua se calienta dentro de un depósito y cuando alcanza la temperatura deseada, pasa a través del café que se encuentra sobre un filtro de papel o tela. El agua fluye lentamente a través del café molido en grano mediano para luego caer dentro de una jarra, generalmente de vidrio. Esta jarra se encuentra sobre una placa caliente, lo que ayuda a mantener la temperatura del café hasta que finalice su preparación.
