Does any part of plastic come in contact with the coffee

Yes, as you can see the clear water dispenser is plastic & water goes into it & down a hard plastic tube. I don't if that answers your question but hope so.

Yes, the brew basket is plastic and there is a long plastic tube that extends from the lid of the carafe which funnels the coffee to the bottom of the carafe.

I would say yes. The coffee pot cover is plastic and dips into the pot like a funnel. It forces the hot coffee to the bottom of the pot.

I would assume so. You will be hard pressed to get a better cup of coffee at home.

Both will only touch glass. The plastic top is used to hold steam in and to hold up the top part when coffee is done. Best coffee maker Iv ever owned.

It does not appear to come in contact. The pump tube, where the coffee percs from, is above a small aperture leading to the o-ring. The pump tube bypasses the o-ring aperture and percs directly into the plastic knob in the cover. Yes, the knob in the cover on the model I use is plastic. In the end plastic is inescapable!

There is a metal band around the bottom of the carafe and there is no way that coffee would come in contact with it while decanting

The plastic is there to allow you to pick up the hot item after brewing, it does not enter the water reservoir

I can't confirm the BPA content but the only plastic it touches is when you pour the coffee. It does not touch any plastic during brewing or while it sits.

The reservoir where the coffee sits is stainless steel. The whole top is plastic though. FWIW I don't taste any plastic.

There is no plastic! I love this french press, it plunges so easily and keeps your coffee hot for a long time!

Any hot water that gets through the metal screen can potentially come into contact with the plastic body before passing on into your cup. I understand wanting to minimize contact with plastic; I bought this filter hoping to minimize the use of paper filters. I actually returned this unit b/c coffee grounds were not filtered well; they were in my cup of coffee, which defeats the purpose of using a filter.

Yes, the ground coffee sits in the plastic portion (overnight at my home). No plastic taste, ever. If I plan properly, in the morning, I pull the plug over the carafe while heating my cup of water in the microwave. I have a second carafe so I can make the last cup from that carafe while I start decanting the fresh batch. Wash the empty one and by the time I am ready to go to work, switch the empty and partially-full carafes and head out for the train. When I get home, the process is done and I simply add the second carafe to the first (I tend to use more water than fits in one carafe and get a little overflow on the counter if not careful). Also, I take some coffee liquid in a container to work so I can have a second "best cup in the world" once I'm there.

I have a black plastic liner. Yes, it will come in contact with the coffee when the coffee is poured into a cup.

no, the glass funnel is below plastic which holds it. It is an excellent drip coffee maker. be aware you have to buy the Hario filters that it.

No plastic parts touching coffee unless you overfill and it touches the bottom of the lid. But it's easy to control that.

Not a bit. I put it through the dishwasher every 4-5 uses, but the plunger really pushes it clean. I then clean the end of the plunger. You would think that with all that heating/cooling going on, there would be a plasticky taste, but the coffee is only in the chamber for about 30 seconds before I plunge. No time to get plastic residue, I suppose.

Not significantly. As you pour there is a chance that the coffee will come into contact with the lining of the lid..

No, there are no plastic parts on the inside. The handle is the only thing that is plastic. It's the reason I bought this one, I too did not want my coffee touching plastic. You'll be good with this one, get it.

No plastic parts come into contact with the coffee. Drawer is all wood. Only the lid, but usually I don't need so much coffee to actuall fill it all the way to the lid. Hope this helps.
