Makes an excellent americano style coffee, no bitter taste. Probably can make a decent espresso "style" shot. Not a real espresso as you won't get a true creama, but you won't get a true espresso from a K-cup either.I have an authentic espresso machine for a real espresso shot, but I don't have a convenient drip appliance for a single cup. I generally have a cappuccino daily and occasionally want a drip style cup. So I decided to try this for that.I immediately made a cup when it arrived. It is easy to do and easy to clean.The very first cup tasted great, smooth and full bodied. I then made a cup with the inverted method, and it was even better. If you want to make an espresso style shot, then the inverted method is the only way.The inverted method is better because; you can consistently get the precise amount of water, and the entire cup will be pushed through the filter with pressure. When you do the normal upright process, water will start dripping through the filter (unless you use a very coarse grind) while you are pouring the water in, making it hard to to avoid adding too much water. Also, the amount that drips through won't have pressure applied, preventing a full extraction of the beans.The inverted method is as it sounds, upside down. Put the plunger up to the "4" marker. While upside down, add the coffee, then the hot water and then secure the filter holder (make sure to wet the filter first). Then turn right-side up and press the plunger, dispensing coffee into your cup. It's that easy!An important note for brewing coffee. The ideal temperature is from 195 to 200 degrees (the instructions say 185, but that is too low). Water boils at 212 degrees. So, if you don't have a thermometer, then take the water off the flame just when little bubbles start for form (not a rolling boil), and let it sit for about 30 seconds.Bottom, quick and easy to use, quick and easy to clean, and makes an excellent brew.

I don't understand why it works so well but as very long time coffee drinker (I started off during the percolator era) but by far this best coffee maker I have e er used. I have tried drip coffee makers, French press, many different brands of k-cup machines, but I have never er had a better cup of coffee. The brew time is short. It only takes about 3 minutes. What you get is good express strength coffee, but it is easy to elite it so that you get what you want. To make additional cups you can make more (up to four) espresso strength cups or you take another three minutes and brew up go for more expression cups. Capacity is on problem. The taste is better than anything you can imagine. As advertised there is No acid taste; no matter how strong it is. .y only complaint about the clear model is that measuring guide numbers on the outside come of quickly. You are better off with the smoked plastic versions. It is the same device but the numbers last !longer. A!so it is worth buying the pressure. That way there are no problems with the size of the grounds. Finally the metal filters are very easy to clen. As with rest of the parts a quick rinse is all that is needed.

Mucho mejor de lo que esperaba.Usarla para preparar café es muy sencillo. A pesar de su simplicidad, permite preparar el café de diversas maneras. Mención especial al diseño general tanto de la Aeropress como de los accesorios incluidos, que entre su simplicidad, se nota que fueron muy bien pensados para cumplir su cometido casi a la perfección.Ya viene con filtros incluidos, los cuales, aunque tenía mis dudas, sí que se pueden reutilizar algunas veces sin alterar el sabor del café — y comprar adicionales es relativamente barato. Limpiarla también es muy sencillo y rápido. Y ciertamente es algo más “portátil” que otras cafeteras.Aunque se puede preparar un buen café, solo se puede avanzar hasta cierto punto, y, a pesar de lo que indica el título de esta publicación, difícilmente se lograra un café tipo “espresso” o similares que requieran de máquinas avanzadas para lograr el nivel de extracción requerido. Pero me parece un muy pequeño precio a pagar a cambio de la simplicidad que ofrece, y del buen café que de todos modos se puede lograr.Otro defecto, al menos en mi caso, es que el “tubo” exterior de la Aeropress venía con un pequeño defecto estético, que la hace parecer como si tuviera una pequeña mancha en el interior (incluso me hizo pensar que recibí una unidad usada y que no había sido lavada de manera correcta). Este defecto no afecta en nada a la extracción, y no es algo que me importe demasiado; pero a personas que quieran tener la Aeropress en un lugar visible, sí que podría importarles si recibieran una unidad con el mismo defecto.Sin duda he quedado gratamente sorprendido con este producto.

Auf unserer Reise von DE nach Österreich, Slowenien, Kroatien, Bosnien bis nach Montenegro haben wir diese Maschiene mit gehabt. Pulver war Dalmayer Classic gemahlenen Kaffee. Wir haben einen Reisebecher genommen, haben 1,5 Messlöffel Kaffee Pulver eingegeben , voll aufgefüllt, kurz gewartet, nochmal etwas Wasser nachgefüllt. Und dann einfach durch gedrückt. Den vollen Becher durch 2 geteilt ... Milch rein ... perfekter Kaffee ... besser als Maschienen Kaffee ... jeder der frischen Kaffee mag, und unterwegs ist, kauft dieses Teil und es ist jeden Penny wert

Makes a great roadside coffee

Great product, working well. Really has improved my morning coffee.
