Hi Kenneth,

Well, I would just use a French coffee press, except for two things:

1. I've not been able to find one big enough.
2. In the ones I've looked at, you can't actually cook IN the press...you
boil the water separately, then pour it into the press to steep.

For the stuff I'm making, I need to use larger quantities, and, more
importantly, I need the leaves to boil with the water for at least an hour,
and then repeat the process.

If I could find a really big French press that you can actually boil the
water in, that would work dandy.

Thanks,

Mike
