Product Description
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.

This simple gadget makes pretty good espresso. It’s not the creamy espresso that the $500 machine I used to have made, but I really don’t care. This thing doesn’t require cleaning with a toothbrush. It doesn’t require high-maintenance- it basically requires NO maintenance and makes a serviceable espresso- better than the small coffeehouse down the street! This has allowed me to keep my latte habit despite the tougher enconomy and not feel like I’ve made too much of a sacrifice!
