The Bodum Santos Vacuum Brewer has fascinated passionate coffee drinkers for decates. In the mid-50's, Peter Bodum became convinced that the "vacuum coffee brewing system" was the best way to brew a good cup of coffee. 

With this in mind, and with the help of Danish architect Kaas Klaeson, he improved both the practical aspect of the vacuum coffee system and the quality of the coffee brewed in it. The Santos' new, revolutionary nylon filter achieved a break-through in coffee brewing quality, far overshadowing the existing cotton and glass filters of the day. 

This patented filter strained coffee to a fine, tasteful and aromatic coffee with nearly no sediments left over in the cup. Santos became the coffee maker of the 50's, 60's, and a good part of the 70's. Its popularity grew to the point that you could find a Santos in nearly every Scandinavian home, and the Santos continues to fascinate coffee lovers around the world today.

The vacuum brewer uses a unique physical process with the ideal balance between the 94°C/201°F water and just the right brewing time, extracting the finest aroma from all types of coffee. First, near-boiling water rushes from the bottom glass jug to the upper one where it gets mixed with freshly ground coffee. 

After a few minutes off the stovetop, a vacuum forms in the base which pulls rich black coffee through a filter and back into the bottom jug. Whatever your preferred coffee and roast, the Santos vacuum system brings the very best taste to your cup.
