A new standard in coffee flavor. Crafted from durable double wall stainless steel with a large 12oz capacity, our unique 3-in-1 brew method speeds up extraction for less bitterness and a smoother, more full-bodied cup.
Speaking of packing for camping, the website doesn’t say how much this new stainless steel version weighs, although I can’t imagine it’s too much heavier than the original plastic.
Yeah I gave up on that idea - silicone pour over! Lightweight and crushable, no microplastics, works with standard paper filters and any method you want to generate hot water
what the fuck? the original aeropress is famously not BPA-free.
oh right the other junk science scare from the early 2000s, based on ONE mouse study where they injected insane amounts of BPA in muscle tissue, then follow ups with more junk science.
Let’s learn something today: Bisphenol A was actually created by a german pharmacuetical lab trying to make a synthetic hormone. In 1891, and it was revisited many times until the 1930s and considered a failure. It never showed estrogenic properties. Eventually, it ended up as an additive to plastics.
The amount shown to be estrogenic in a mouse muscle, after injection, would be impossible for a human to consume in 10 lifetimes. This plagues most of the estrogenic research published.
But selling fear sells media. So no, BPA will not give you tits.
Now Aeropresses contain “microplastics”, despite no evidence they actually do.
Another example of people believing bad science was the banning of DDT. One ecologists faked data about bird populations and linked it the use of DDT, so everyone banned it. Millions died of malaria as a result.
One of the big selling features of the original AP was its portability, i.e. you could throw it in your luggage, and durability.
The glass Premium cancelled those features and was panned for it.
I can imagine people using the inversion method, which would put the glass part teetering on top while full of hot water while brewing. That would easily tip over, shatter, and cause unhappy customers.
When I was more likely to have hangovers, my French presses had the habit of choosing that time to leap off the counter and shatter. The plastic Aeropress could survive a drop in just about any kitchen scenario and well beyond.
“Pre-order ships in May”
An eye watering $169, but hey it’s finally here.
Slightly cheaper than the $199 stupidly breakable glass Premium.
Slightly larger 12oz capacity vs 10oz Aeropress original, but smaller than the 20oz XL
Thats silly money.
The charm of the AP is that it’s cheap and you can just lob it in your camping bag.

I think it will be substantially heavier!
No thermal insulation also a big minus in my eyes.Missed the vacuum insulation part…They need to vacuum insulate because heat conductive metal would be a stupid choice of material, as opposed to glass or plastic.

I’m fine keeping my press at home
I’ve never used one, is the breakable nature of the glass version a result of heat cycles or just because it’ll crack if you knock it by accident?
it’s breakable compared to the $20 plastic original, which is basically nuke proof.
But it somehow makes microplastics no one can see but everyone believes in. Christianity is envious of microplastics.

The inverted method is a bad idea with any version of the AP, the risk of shattering the fancy glass one could be a good deterrent to stop doing it ;D
Just the glass

Way, wayyy too much for what it is. Just use a mocha pot
The whole 👉 was a cheap easy coffee maker.
They are cashing in on the microplastics fad. Simps are so easy to sell to.
