Primula Burke vs Bodum Side-by-Side Comparison
Overall Verdict
The Primula Burke and Bodum are similar in their shape, size, and colored jacket design. The Burke is a glass jug-type carafe with a plastic and nylon filter, while the Bodum has an all-plastic body with a metal and stainless steel plunge filter.
The Bodum is a freestyle brewer meaning you can adjust the brew ratio and brew volume as desired. After brewing, you replace the simple brew lid with a plunge-filter lid.
Both brewers produce a finely-filtered brew. The Bodum produces a full-strength cold brew concentrate, whereas the Burke is not a brewer we recommend due to its weak and insubstantial brew.
