Overview
AeroPress makes this small manual brewer to combine French press, pour-over and espresso-style brewing in one plastic press. Ground coffee and water go in, and pressing out a cup takes about two minutes.
A short brew, a tiny footprint and no need for power suit camping and desks. The limits are the single serving and the paper filters that have to be restocked.
Who it's for
Campers, commuters and office workers who want strong coffee from a pocket-size brewer suit this press. Households brewing a whole pot should buy a different brewer.
Pros and cons
- Quick two minute brew
- Small and portable
- No power needed
- Several drink styles
- One small serving
- Paper filters needed
- Not dishwasher safe per listing
Performance notes
Paper filtering and a short brew time are what the maker credits for less bitterness. Pressing moves the water through the grounds by hand, so grind size and press pace shape the cup. The chamber holds a small serving.
