"WONDERFUL coffee and FUN!", Aeropress Espresso Maker
This coffee maker makes the smoothest, richest coffee I have ever tasted. The espresso even ends with a dollop of crema and after adding water to make a 'regular' coffee the brew is...perfect! The great plus is the process; it's easy and FUN! You have the feeling of making coffee from a small chemistry set and the control you have over the strength of the final brew is complete. This is a spoiler, coffee elsewhere is bland and I wonder why this technology hasn't been automated. Makes the best coffee ever, hands down.

"Amazing", I had this on my Christmas wish list. Thanks to dear old dad, I was able to first use it on Christmas Eve. Wow, I have 2 of the fancy espresso pots that will be returned!! I have ordered another 2. One for my travel bag and one for a gift.

"Excellent coffee maker!", This is a great coffee maker - especially for someone like me who wants to make only 1 mug at a time. I've tried all different kinds of coffee makers, but they don't seem to be optimized for making a single ~8 oz mug of coffee. I always ended up brewing multiple cups of coffee and throwing the extra away to get the one good cup I wanted.

I got this aeropress about 1 year ago and it is great. I followed the initial instructions, but preferred my coffee a bit different. So, I experimented with grind, water temperature, amount of coffee/water, etc., until I found the right combination for *my* personal preference. I use this to make a cup of coffee, not espresso (that is, I add water to the result to get "regular" coffee), so I can't comment on the quality of espresso taste. I have noticed that coffee beans/grind from different sources have their own "sweet spots" for best grind and coffee/water quantity to get the taste I prefer. So, now that I know how I like to brew a couple different types, I try to stick with those so that I don't have to go through the experimenting stage needed if I try a completely new coffee bean/grind. That works for me. This coffee tastes great. :)

Oh, I should mention that I have also used french press coffee makers. I really like the taste of french press coffee, but got sick of the grinds and/or sediment that always ends up in the bottom of the coffee and made the bottom of the cup taste gross. True to it's advertising, the aeropress doesn't seem to leave grinds or sediment. I sip my cup kind of slowly and end up zapping it in the microwave to heat it up again several times. The coffee does not get bitter from sitting in my mug because there is not coffee grind sediment soaking at the bottom. That is a huge plus for me!

A few folks mentioned that the plunger can be hard to press. I have to agree. I've had 2 shoulder surgeries and it does take some extra effort to manage to push the plunger straight down. I can still do it, although I only have 2 scoops of coffee grind in at a time. I think it would be extremely difficult to press with too much coffee in it.

One year of daily use, including travel, and there are no problems, no parts wearing out from stress, no cracks in the plastic. It still looks like new.

I donated my drip coffee machine, french press and espresso machine to Goodwill. :)

PS - I noticed the aeropress is available via third party vendor and Amazon. I can't comment on the vendor, as I put it on my wishlist for Xmas last year and got it as a gift. I noticed there are separate reviews for each device/vendor, so will post my review under both.


"Great little gadget", This inexpensive gadget makes great espresso that you can convert into what the Italians call "cafe Americano" or what we call a regular cup of coffee by adding an equal amount of hot water. I didn't believe it but take my word for it: you can make great coffee with this thing.

Downside: several plastic parts to clean (although just running water over them does the trick), a limit to how big a cup you want, and pushing down on the plastic pump is a tab dangerous--if your push isn't totally vertical you could knock it over with the hot coffee inside.

"Best and easiest espresso contraption", I love the Aeropress! It is simple to use and super easy to clean! The coffee quality is wonderful, I can use my own coffee, and I can make myself an easy espresso or Americano in a few minutes, hassle-free. I cannot rave enough about this coffee maker. I've had it for months, and am finally writing this review so people know what they're missing! Miles away from messy clean up of French presses, or expensive complicated machinery for an espresso machine. Easier than keeping track of when a Moka coffeemaker boils, to avoid burning. And of course, much better coffee compared to a regular drip coffee maker. You HAVE to try this out!
