Is the top interchangeable with a Bodum travel french press top? Just to clarify, I intend to switch this one's top with the top of a clear plastic model.

Hello Dan, If you are refering to the old version of the Bodum travel french press (clear plastic) I don't think it will work because this model is much taller. If you are refering to the stainless steel travel french press you shouldn't have a problem.

Yes, it should be the same size. In fact, depending on where you purchase it you might get both tops with the cup.

I matched the replacement glass with the bodium coffee press at the office and it worked well. The next time someone broke the glass, I purchased the stainless steel bodum coffee press and did not have to worry about breaking the glass, etc. I found that I could clean the stainless steel model much better and the coffee was just as good. Cost of two replacement glass unit versus the stainless stell model was worth it. The stainless steel bodum coffee press is on its second tour in Afghanistan with me.

I'm so sorry...I read your question again and see that it was the carafe, not the top, that broke. I definitely would not try to switch tops. I'd call B&D; anyway, and ask them about the carafe and ask if it will fit your coffee maker. They'll likely be able to tell you if the specific replacement carafe(s) you found will fit. They're very nice!

Thursday, February 27, 2014 Good Evening Marie: The cover/lid on the Bodum Chambord 3 cup French Press is metal. The little black knob that sits on top is made of hard plastic. Hope this helps. Here's to Great Health and the Perfect Cup of Coffee/Espresso. Sincerely, A. Crowell

It's been a while since I installed mine, but I remember wondering about that and deciding that the plastic was interchangeable. I would say the probability is about 90% that you can just swap out the plastic with the new one. I am seldom 100% certain about anything :-)

Even if the top plastic insert seemingly has minimal contact with the coffee, the boiling heat and steam may make the plastic release toxins down into the coffee.I have a Bodum without that plastic insert. They can be found.

Got it, used it, it fits but I think the top(meta top from coffee pot) fits too loosely on the plastic. thus coffee gringes are allowed into the base. Small problem, I just don't drink the last drop. I am next going to get paper filters that coat bottom mental before you put coffee in. Just to see which is better. One thing for sure is this gizmo saves getting alot of paper filters.

I have used a few of these replacement Glass Carafes for my Bodum 12-cup French Press. However, my Bodum is made of metal (?Stainless Steel?). The carafe perfectly fits in my metal housing and all the press parts fit perfectly within that carafe. I suppose you need to confirm that your Bodum is the 12-cup, 51 ounce version. I dont know if yours is "the original Bodum French Press", mine is quite old and does not have "black insulating bottom", presumably you mean your framework is black - mine is not, its stainless steel. Hope this helps. Brenda

Yes, we just went from a 4 cup glass carafe Bodum French press to an 8 cup stainless. The 4 cup stainless was too small. We do 4 cups in the 8 cup stainless and still get the good quality coffee. And it stays hot if we have a more leisurely breakfast.

I bought mine particularly for use with a french press and it works great for me. I think it's consistency is reliant on the user's. ;)

This is a replacement piece for a French Press Coffee Maker. Try Bodum Carafe.

I would think it would because it didn't fit my Bodum coffee maker. I think it is made for French presses.

Mine is about 3-7/8" wide and a little less than 7" tall, and it fits with a metal Bodum frame. I have the Bodum Chambord 8 cup French Press.

Hi, I found the grinds to very inconstant so I returned it. It can get very coarse though, I think someone posted a picture that is exactly what I got. But for french press I was not happy.

Yes it does replace the 3 cup Bodum Chambord. I have 2 and I found that it a drop tight going in so you may have to push it a drop; I was afraid of shattering the glass but it worked out well. It's definitely a bit of a tight fit, so don't be hesitant to use.

I would have to agree, I have gone through multiple French presses and they were glass or plastic and it would always break in a few months into it so I was done and just invested in a stainless steel press, amazing press. But that's just my background if your make your coffee or tea everyday I would recommend it, I bring it to work and just pour whenever I wanted more,its a convents.

I uses it with mine, it's a bit tight as it's a smidge taller but the handled flexed over it without breaking and I don't remove the glass to wash it out. I owned 3 bodum single serves as it cost about as much to replace the beaker as purchase a new one in our town when I broke a beaker. When I found these online, I ordered 3 beakers. It seems silly to have so many but works great when a few friends are over. Every one can have the our style of what is a perfect cup of coffee for then - Every Time. :O
