SUCTION CUP
Combine hot water and
ground coffee in the hop-
per, then press the but-
ton on top. The FrankOne’s
vacuum mechanism sucks
the liquid through a mesh
filter and into the glass
carafe below. The coffee’s
bitter oils are left behind,
resulting in a sweeter-
tasting brew. A 12-ounce
cup of hot java is ready
in 30 seconds; cold brew
takes just four minutes.

hold a phone, a paper note-
