Set up your account

The first time you open the web interface, you create an account on FrenschPress. It protects your device settings and is stored only on the device; it is not an online account.

  1. Enter a Username and Password. The password needs at least six characters.
  2. Repeat the password in the confirmation field.
  3. Create the account with the button in the form.
  4. Sign in with these credentials.
First-time account setup

Signing in and out​

Sign-in form with Username, Password and Remember me
  • Remember me keeps you signed in on this browser. Use it on your own computer if you access FrenschPress regularly.
  • Sign out at the bottom of the navigation ends your session.
  • When a session expires, sign in again.

You can set up FrenschPress from a phone, too. Add its address to your home screen to open it faster. The mobile layout is described in Getting to know the web interface.

Forgotten your credentials​

A credentials reset lets you create a new account.

  1. Disconnect every USB power connection. A second connected USB cable can otherwise keep the device powered.
  2. Hold STOP + PAUSE while you reconnect FrenschPress.
  3. Keep holding both buttons for five seconds. The LEDs flash orange meanwhile. They then flash four times quickly and the FrenschPress restarts with the credentials cleared.
  4. Open the web interface and create a new account.

All combinations are listed under Button combinations.
