French Press instead of Aluball or Strainer?

And some of them told me, that you can use a french press, usually used for coffee, to straign the kava.
What do you think about that technique?

Doesn't work. The screen gets clogged and wont let any liquid through. Had one member require stiches when attempting this process with a french press.

really there isn’t much to improve the traditional technique, as we have seen with aluball and other techs. I do think blender can be added to the process to make a stronger bevy, but you still have to kead it after blending. Dont cut corners with the root.
