    I got myself an aeropress, because it was on sale in a café I was at. It is exactly how I imagined it to be and very easy and quick to brew with. The coffee tastes good out of it

      My wife and I were talking about getting one last night. We have too many coffee gadgets to play with still I think but we’ll probably pick one up the next time we do a weekend trip. Hopefully we’ll do one this autumn.

        It’s nice for making good coffee in a short amount of time. Not as much work as pour over or espressi

          It might be good for my morning coffee too then. Right now I’m doing both espresso and pour over in the morning while also trying to make breakfast and get my daughter ready for daycare. It’s fun, but a lot sometimes. Especially at 4:30am. I was considering moving to French press for the mornings, but I might also consider AeroPress now too.

              I’ll have to give it a try then. Maybe I’ll gift one to my wife for Christmas. She’s just as into coffee as I am so I’m sure she’d be excited to try it. She’s wanted one for a while now.

        I got it because I mostly made espresso before and it’s extremely convenient. I still equally make espresso as well but for making multiple cups I can just use the aeropress simultaneously
