Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker
Customer Review: Outrageous coffee maker
Summary: 5 Stars
I did a lot of research before buying the Aeropress--I'm totally impressed by the coffee it makes. I took the unit to work for a while, made coffee for a co-worker who buys lattes daily. She said my Aeropress coffee was the best she had ever tasted. I have to agree. And it's fun to use!Customer Review: This Aeropress Maker is Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars
This maker is the second Aeropress purchased for this household. My wife purchased this for me two years ago for Christmas and after hauling this from home to work for two years, it finally occurred to me to buy a second one and leave it at work.
I have probably convinced at least seven people to buy this product since our first purchase. They in turn told their friends and I know of three people who purchased one from hearing about it. It is so simple to use and MAKES THE BEST CUP OF COFFEE I HAVE EVER HAD!
When you make your first cup, you might think the coffee was made a little on the weak side. But after a few sips you'll realize that it isn't weak, it's just that you've removed so much of the acid, it's a smooth cup of coffee you're tasting.
Buy one. I promise if you're a coffee lover, you'll be pleasantly surprised!
Customer Review: Great little coffee maker
Summary: 5 Stars
The saying "Less is more" is true about the AeroPress. It makes very good coffee fast, is easy to clean, the filters are cheap, and the amount of coffee used per cup is low. The coffee is not bitter like with a french press and it is far more efficient that the cold press Toddy. My latte with the AeroPress is as good as Big B and I do not need to leave home to get one. Unlike some of the reviewers, it is very easy to press the water out. I use a cup with a wide base and it is very stable. Since you press the water out, the grounds are dry and easy to remove. Hats off to AeroPress for a great invention. Customer Review: The only thing it's missing is a cute little storage box
Summary: 5 Stars
I really love my Aeropress. Even the first cup I made with it took mere minutes. The clean up really is as easy as people have stated. I bought mine from Amazon. I was disappointed that I'd purchased filters separately. There's no need. The unit comes with a set of around 200 filters. There are also two black pieces that came with the unit and are not shown on Amazon. I figured out that one acts as a stabilizer to place the unit on a coffee cup more securely. The other piece...I'm still not sure of its function. BUT clearly it isn't a crucial piece, because I'm making great coffee without it. :) I would recommend the company think up a cute little box that will store the unit nicely. The shape of the box in which it is sold is too awkward to fit nicely on my shelves or in my cabinets. Just a suggestion. Yes. I recommend the Aeropress. Buy it.Customer Review: Amazing Coffee in less than 5 minutes
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
