To quote that legendary phrase made famous by Ronseal, Degono really does do exactly what it says on the tin.
It is the no-mess press, taking the hassle of cleaning tea leaves and coffee grounds after each use. It was invented for that purpose and perhaps we don’t shout loudly enough about it. But now we are!
The Degono tea and coffee press makes up to six cups of your favourite beverage at a time.
Its patented Groundsaway dual-filter system compacts tea leaves and coffee grounds, leaving your freshly brewed beverage clear and the dried grounds or leaves are ready for the recycling bin or compost heap.
And, from a tea or coffee lover’s point of view, that’s all there is to it. Obviously a lot of hard work, design and experimentation went into creating the finished product which we – like so many other people – love and use every day. Our goal was to make it simple to use without compromising on quality.
We think we have done that . . . and others agree.
Jason P said: "I love coffee from a cafetière and always rinse the used grounds in the garden. This device makes it so much easier and making a second jug is inevitable. I don’t mind the odd lumpy ground in my coffee, but if you do, this pretty much eliminates them.
“Excellent idea and a great product. It makes fresh coffee that little bit easier."
And Rachel W was equally impressed.
She said: "Where can I start about this amazing product? YOU NEED ONE IN YOUR LIFE.
“Originally saw this product on Buy it now for Christmas back in 2019 and the next day went to a food show and they were there so I had to buy one as I was so impressed with it.
“So simple to use and so much easier to clean due to the unique technology that Tim and Sandra have designed.
“This is not one of those gadgets you buy and then it heads to the back of the cupboard never to be seen again. This is permanently on my worktop and in constant use. Don't just think it’s for coffee either, you can use it for loose tea, too.
“I have recently got a replacement seal (the main part of it) as I think I've used it so much I have worn it out over the years!!!
“This replacement came so quickly and I have been told is also made of a different much better material that won't do the same as the old one. Can't recommend this product highly enough.”
Other key features include:
⚫ Ergonomic handle design ⚫ Spare glass and filters available ⚫ Six-cup capacity
⚫ Dishwasher safe
⚫ The tea and coffee measuring spoon hangs perfectly on the pouring lip for storage!
The Degono story began in November, 2013, in Yorkshire, where Tim Craven came up with the idea of creating an easy-clean cafetiere/ French press.
The following year, our product became a reality. Degono reinvented tea and coffee brewing with our innovative six-cup cafetiere, developed for tea lovers and coffee lovers everywhere to use.
The Degono tea and coffee press uses the same brewing system as the French coffee press, giving tea and coffee lovers full control over the process for the prefect brew, while catching the grounds, and loose-leaf tea in between two filters.
This means you can brew or infuse the perfect tea or coffee hot or cold.
For Tim, the aim was simple, but a lot of work and experimentation went into designing the perfect press.
He said: “As I designed and developed the Degono, I quickly realised that my drive for quality and design was pushing me to create a truly unique tea and coffee press and my passion just keeps getting stronger, so the future is bringing my dreams to the marketplace to share with everyone.”
Degono is now used in homes, cafes and restaurants around the world, including the US and South Africa.
As well as making the perfect gift for tea and coffee lovers, Degono can be used to create a range of different drinks, from refreshing iced teas, to decadent tea and coffee-infused cocktails.
For us, what makes it stand out from the crowd is how easy it is to clean – basically empty the grounds, give it a rinse, and it’s done. There’s no mess or hassle of trying to dispose of wet coffee grounds or tea leaves that stick to the sides of the glass or filter, and have to be washed down the sink.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
