Zombie G says: I use an AeroPress to make my morning coffee every day!
We also carry replacement paper filters.
Smoothest
Using the ideal water temperature
and gentle air pressure brewing yields
rich flavor with lower acidity and
without bitterness.
Richest
Total immersion brewing results in uniform
extraction of the ultimate in full coffee
flavor. Other coffee makers drip hot water
on bed of grounds, over-extracting at the
center and under extracting at the edge.
Purest
Micro-filtered for grit-free coffee - unlike
other press-type coffee makers.
Fastest
One minute from start to enjoy. The actual
press time takes only 20-30 seconds.

The AeroPress is an entirely new way to make coffee.
- Water and grounds are mixed together for a few seconds.
- Then gentle air pressure pushes the mix through a micro-filter and into a coffee mug.
- Makes from 1 to 4 cups of coffee, depending on desired coffee strength.
- The total brewing time of less than a minute results in exceptionally smooth flavor.
- Tasters ranging from professional cuppers to coffee aficionados all praise the smooth, rich flavor.

Total immersion of the grounds in the water
results in rapid yet robust extraction of flavor.
Air pressure shortens filtering time to less than
a minute. This avoids the bitterness of long
processes such as drip brewing.
The air pressure also gently squeezes the last
goodness from the grounds, further enriching the flavor.
Because of the lower temperature and short
brew time, the acid level of the brew is much
lower than conventional brewers. Laboratory
pH testing measured AeroPress brew's
acid as less than one fifth that of regular drip
brew. The low acid is confirmed by coffee
lovers who report that AeroPress brew is
friendlier to their stomachs.
AeroPress is the result of several years of applied research by inventor/engineer Alan Adler.
He conducted numerous brewing experiments, measuring the brew with laboratory instruments.
The experiments demonstrated that proper temperature, total immersion and rapid filtering
were key to flavor excellence. He then designed and tested dozens of brewers before settling
on the AeroPress design. The design was further validated by coffee lovers who tested prototypes
in their homes. Adler has about forty U.S. patents and an equal number of foreign patents.
He is President of Aerobie, Inc, Palo Alto, California and a lecturer in mechanical engineering
at Stanford University. Adler's best-known invention is the Aerobie flying ring which set the
Guinness World record for the world's farthest throw (1,333 feet).
