Pure and simple - best caffeine delivery system ever?

bysundogg99 Jul 21, 2008
22 Helpfuls 23 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 3 Comments
Pros Simple, easy to maintain, inexpensive.
Cons Uses a lot of coffee per cup; effectively makes only one cup at a time
Recommended it? Yes

If I had a dollar for every coffee making device we've tried, I could visit Starbuck's every day for... well, for a day. Still, we've tried several things, from a traditional coffee maker to a ludicrously expensive espresso machine to a simple Chemex carafe. All have their drawbacks. Our most... Read full review »

The biggest grin in coffee making!

Pros Spectacularly good coffee, simple and forgiving process, quick cleanup
Cons Uses a lot of coffee compared to drip/press; kind of goofy looking
Recommended it? Yes

The Aeropress is in my opinion the best single cup coffee maker in existence, short of a semi-auto or lever espresso machine. If this gadget doesn't put a smile on your face, you're hopeless!  Let me count the ways (and then I'll get to the details):

- it's a coffee maker from a toy... Read full review »

This makes no sense. None.

Pros Inexpensive, simple to use and clean, fantastic coffee
Cons You'll use a lot of coffee, but you won't mind.
Recommended it? Yes

Espresso is a strange, nearly mystical substance. The mystical part is that you'll rarely find two people who will agree completely on any aspect of its production or consumption. Some people sweeten, some would rather die. Some people insist on straight up, others drink elaborate brews only... Read full review »

Excellent way to make coffee

Pros Great alternative to a regular coffee maker.
Cons Bad if you hate strong coffee
Recommended it? Yes

I was originally given this “coffee maker” by a then-girlfriend of mine who had discovered it at a coffee shop that she really liked. For a while, I didn't really like it because I thought it was going to be quite hard to use. Once I got the hang of it, it was actually really... Read full review »

Coffee will never be the same

Pros Coffee is flavorful, never bitter. Easy cleanup. Fast.
Cons Uses a LOT of coffee, but worth it!
Recommended it? Yes

I'm a bit of a coffee nut, as is my wife. We both like full-flavored, rather strong coffee, but we detest bitter-tasting brews. I had bought my daughter a pod coffeemaker for Christmas and she really loves it, so I bought one for myself - a Hamilton Beach that broke after just a month. I suppose... Read full review »

Perfect on-the-go cup of coffee

13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Easy to carry, easy to use, easy to clean, great cup of coffee
Cons Uses a bit more ground coffee per cup than other methods
Recommended it? Yes

The Aeropress is a simple coffee maker designed by the same genius that gave us the Aerobie flying ring.  I don't know why he decided to make a cofee maker, but I am glad he did.

First off, though, a little background on me.  I am a true coffee geek.  I collect coffee makers... Read full review »

Quick concentrated coffee, effortless cleanup, great for travel or work

Pros Easy to use, easy to clean, easy to pack for a weekend getaway.
Cons Sensitive to bean quality and grind, only makes 4 shots at a time.
Recommended it? Yes

I saw the AeroPress mentioned on SingleServeCoffee.com in one of their newsletters, and found that Amazon had it in a "buy 3, get 1 free" promo along with several paperbacks I wanted. Coffee and books, and a free book? Sure, I'm game.

Having had relatively bad luck making drinkable joe... Read full review »

Best Coffee I Ever Tasted!!

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros The Inexpensive Aerobie AeroPress makes Very rich coffee. Sturdy. Easy to fill; brew;...
Cons Very hard to push the plunger through fine coffee.
Recommended it? Yes

The Aerobie AeroPress is very unusual because you must force the water through the grounds by hand making the equivalent of an espresso double shot. No I can't say it is as good as the best espresso, but the concentrate is very close and tastes better than any other brewed coffee I ever tasted. I... Read full review »

Great coffee anywhere

Pros Great coffee, easy clean up, small size, portable.
Cons Too much hype on the box/web site. Great coffee, but its not espresso.
Recommended it? Yes

I love great coffee, and now there is simple way to make it.

If you are a coffee fan you will like the coffee the AeroPress makes.

Just boil your water, pop a filter into the cap of the Aeropres and tighten.
Pre-heat the Aeropress, grind your fresh coffee beans.
Put... Read full review »

Not espresso, but very good coffee.

byindintruk Dec 9, 2009

Pros Simple to use, nearly idiot proof, and makes great coffee.
Cons It does not make espresso as claimed.
Recommended it? Yes

Oh boy, where to start with a product that hypes itself this much.  The packaging is oh so cheesy; reminiscent more of a toy maker than the manufacturer of a serious coffee making device.  But, this can be forgiven, as Aerobie is a toy maker; known for their flying ring shaped disc. ...
