A few thoughts on the new AeroPress, both the brewer and the company. For more information:The AeroPress Clear: https://aeropress.com/products/aeropress-clea...

New Hoffman video dropped. Not sure if we have any 3rd wave coffee lovers in this community. I’ve been an avid AeroPress user for about two years now and it will be interesting to see where the company goes, though it will likely not affect me as this thing feels nigh indestructible and I can likely use it for ten years with no issues.

      Yeah but I’m always worried I’m gonna spill coffee everywhere. I will say it works well when I’ve done it, it’s just nerve wracking. The Aeropress isn’t my daily driver so I don’t get a ton of practice.

        I do the inverted method a lot and after the first few tries I haven’t had a spillage at all. Big thing to be careful of is make sure the plunger isn’t too close to coming out of the press.

      I’m personally not a fan of the inverted method, moving parts around early in the morning before I’ve had coffee is a recipe for disaster. I’ve considered getting a prismo (the fellow attachment), but haven’t bit the bullet because a little bit of drip doesn’t bother me. But I know that it works well for stopping drips.
