my brother has one. its a pain in the ass to clean. but it makes some nice coffee.

aeropress is the easiest way to make good coffee.

best way:
>paper filter in the cap, make it wet so it stays there
>wet plunger and cylinder so it moves easier
>move plunger a few cm in cylinder and have the opening upside
>put coffee in
>fill half with water (90°C) for easier stirring >(timer start)
>fill the other half
>put cap+filter on
>turn 180° put it on cup
>(some drops will fall out)
>wait until the minute mark, and start pressing
if this doesnt work you might want to buy a new press or other filters.
>let steep for 3-5 minutes
far too long anon

opinions on this? I tried french press and it's too much of a pain in the ass for me to bother with.

I'm a big fan of the aeropress, mainly because it's light and durable enough to take camping
It's amazing how many products are out there to make the same drink. It's awesome
