The AeroPress is an entirely new way to make coffee, American style or Espresso style for use in lattes, cappucinos and other espresso based drinks. AeroPress brews simply delicious coffee, 1-4 cups per pressing. Ideal water temperature and faster brewing yields rich flavor with lower acidity and without bitterness. Other brewing processes use near boiling water and long exposure to coffee grounds. Quickly brew a variety of coffee drinks including an Americano or an espresso-style shot for use in lattes or cappuccinos. Its total-immersion system permits extraction at a moderate temperature and a short brew time. Water and grounds are mixed together for 10 seconds, then gentle air pressure pushes the mix through a micro-filter in just 20 seconds, which avoids the bitterness of long processes such as drip brewing. The air pressure also gently squeezes the last goodness from the grounds, further enriching the flavor. The total brewing time of only 30 seconds results in an exceptionally smooth brew.

Excellent coffee maker! This is a great coffee maker – especially for someone like me who wants to make only 1 mug at a time. I’ve tried all different kinds of coffee makers, but they don’t seem to be optimized for making a single ~8 oz mug of coffee. I always ended up brewing multiple cups of coffee and throwing the extra away to get the one good cup I wanted.I got this aeropress for Christmas 2006 and it is great. I followed the initial instructions, but preferred my coffee a bit different. So, I experimented with grind, water temperature, amount of coffee/water, etc., until I found the right combination for *my* personal preference. I use this to make a cup of coffee, not espresso (that is, I add water to the result to get “regular” coffee), so I can’t comment on the quality of espresso taste. I have noticed that coffee beans/grind from different sources have their own “sweet spots” for best grind and coffee/water quantity to get the taste I prefer. So, now that I know how I like to brew a…
Best Coffee ever from a Frisbee company… yup! I may try a video review of this later because I think this is hands down one of the greatest ways to make a single cup of coffee.I bought this because I was tired of the coffee at the office giving me heartburn and generally making me want to immolate myself every time I drank another cup.There are some things about the AeroPress that blow my mind.1) The coffee is outstanding; better than MoreBucks and definitely a lot more affordable and convenient.2) Cleanup is very easy3) You feel like a cubicle alchemist which is always a good thing.4) You can customize you level of flavor/density very easily.The process for me is pretty cool. Check it out.(I bring in espresso ground coffee from home but you can use regular grind if you like a lighter brew)1) Fill my cup with hot water from the filter (or whatever; can’t say I recommend regular tap water as you want it about 170 degrees)2) Put a…
