Amazing Coffee in less than 5 minutes November 30, 2008
I was skeptical going into this. I didn't think that a funny looking device like this could make serious coffee. But I had heard a few people talking about it so I thought I'd try it out.

Glad I did. The coffee is great. Probably the best "brewed" coffee I've ever had. It has all the qualities of a French Press coffee without the sediment (thanks to the filter) and tastes great. Sometimes the plunger can be a little hard to press down fully, but that's usually because the grind of the beans is too fine. A simple adjustment (this device will work best if you have a bean grinder that allows you to adjust the fineness) to the grind and the next batch is great. It makes a single cup or a pot of coffee in no time at all. I highly recommend this product.

Wow! Amazing coffee from simple device! November 30, 2008
I've bought hundreds of items from Amazon and this is the first product I absolutely HAD to comment on. I'm an admitted coffee snob and I drink a lot of it. I'm a writer and this is my main weakness. I grind and brew my own just fine through my fancy coffee maker as well as my french press but the Aeropress makes a cup as good or better than any coffee I've ever had. Plus the cleanup is SO much easier than the french press. That alone makes it worth the purchase. I cannot rave enough about how much I love this thing. I can't wait to travel with it so I'll never be without great coffee again.

Pretty good coffee maker November 27, 2008
I was looking for an inexpensive alternative to an espresso maker. I didn't find it, but the Aeropress makes decent coffee. I like my coffee very hot, so I used hotter water than the directions stipulate (just below the boiling point). It made good regular coffee, but only fair espresso. I was not able to produce any "crema" on the coffee. The paper filters filter too well: they remove all sediment even when I use extremely find grind coffee.
The coffee maker is easy to use and eash to clean. My Aeropress arrived with one packet of filters included, so you may want to forgo buying another packet until you are sure you like the coffee maker. The manufacturer claims you can wash the filters and reuse them, but I had better results using a new filter each time.

Works as advertised November 27, 2008
There are quite a few pieces, and getting the right combination of water temperature, coffee grind, coffee quantity, and water quantity takes considerable trial and error. The result is, however, a fine cup of coffee or espresso from a most inexpensive device. Keep notes on your first attempts and you will be rewarded by a flavorful cup that is tailored to your own preferences.

Simple and Portable November 21, 2008
I saw the Aeropress at a friends house and went right home and bought one for myself, which allowed me to get rid of my large footprint espresso machine. I like the Aeropress's simplicity and, because it is easy to use, I use it more often. And it's small and light enough to take on trips. Hooray!
