The Aeropress is a must have for any coffee lover.

Alan Alder who invented of this product made some metal filters to test but has an issue with selling them based on the health concern of non paper filtered coffee so it doesn't look like he will be selling them. A suggestion I am going to try is to cut one of my old gold filters to fit the bottom.

Well, for low mess and power brew the AeroPress is a great call.

As long as you're not talking about Aldo Novo, it's all good. That "life is just a fantasy song" reminds me of my first breakup.

Sorry Rob, I know you were trying to provide some Chemex factual info and I went and trampled all over your reply, but you were kinda rough on me when my chrome E61 machine was in transit.

I was actually talking about the Aeropress with the whole Alan Alda Alan Adler fiasco.

My eyes still hurt from looking at all that shiny metal
