AeroPress Original Coffee Maker & Stainless Steel Filter Bundle

The AeroPress Original can brew up to three shots of espresso style coffee. If you prefer to brew your coffee by pushing all the water through the grounds, you can brew one 10 oz. serving of coffee or cold brew.

The AeroPress Original can make American style coffee, cold brew style coffee, or espresso style coffee for use in drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.

The biggest mug you can press into with the AeroPress Original has a top inner diameter of 3 3/4 inches (95mm). The smallest mug you can press into with the AeroPress Original has a top inner diameter of 2 5/8 inches (67mm).

You can in the top shelf, but a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber. If your chamber ever gets sticky, wash it with vinegar. We recommend occasionally removing the seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap.

For the best brewing experience, use a medium-fine grind size, shake to level the bed of coffee grounds before pouring in the water, and pour the water slowly. Read More

Storage and Care:

To maximize seal life, always eject the used coffee right after brewing and store your AeroPress coffee maker with the seal pushed all the way through the chamber. This keeps the seal free of compression for longer seal life. There is no adhesive on the seal, so you can easily remove it and then replace it on the AeroPress plunger. You can purchase replacement seals from our website here: https://aeropress.com/products/aeropress-seal.

For day to day use, a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber clean as you brew. However, you can wash AeroPress coffee makers in the dishwasher (top rack only). We recommend occasionally removing the seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap. If your chamber ever gets sticky, wash it with vinegar.

You should use a sturdy mug or carafe and should never press into a thin walled glass mug or carafe.

Inverted method:

The “inverted method” can cause the coffee maker to be less stable and prone to mishaps that expose the user to potential burns from hot liquid. Be advised that we strongly discourage using the inverted method because it is less stable and therefore prone to tipping over and exposing the user to hot liquid.

Both the reusable metal filter and the paper micro-filters keep out coffee grounds for a grit-free cup of coffee. The main difference between them is in the flavor profiles that they give you. The reusable metal filter allows oils to pass through for a somewhat fuller-bodied cup of coffee, whereas the paper micro-filter keeps out those oils for a cleaner flavor profile. Whichever filter you use, you're sure to make a delicious cup!

No, the AeroPress reusable metal filter is the one and only metal filter designed and made by AeroPress. All other products on the market are made by third parties.

Because it is made of stainless steel, the AeroPress reusable metal filter is not compostable. However, it is infinitely reuseable, so you can make as many cups of coffee as you like with it. Just wash and reuse for cup after cup of rich, full-bodied coffee!
