A drop in the ocean of reviews but...
AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker
My daughter just gave me this AeroPress for dad's day and I thought what a lot of people thought,
".. it can not possibly do what it says it does." I remember thinking that my daughter just had no idea what it takes to make a great shot of espresso...
Obviously, she does. Either that or she'd been reading these reviews.
I took it out the next day and pressed out a 3 shot Americano. It takes a bit of upper body strength to push the air driven water through 3 shots worth of finely ground coffee but when it was finished, from the 1st sip I knew, this was Barista quality espresso. I texted my daughter immediately and told her how wonderful it was and thanked her profusely. The clean up is effortless and even if it were more difficult, I'd still use this puppy over and over (as I have)
I over caffeinated myself the next few days. I've since calmed down and have finally come to the full realization that I have the luxury of a top notch espresso maker in my possession.
At any price, this would be worth every penny. For under $30, it is a treasure.

Great product
This makes the best coffee ever. No bitter after taste. So much better than any other coffee maker that I have tried.

Great for a cup or two
I've had this a couple of weeks now, and this is all I use now for making coffee for myself. Others have written about the finer points and techniques, and I can't really improve on their suggestions. This is so simple and easy to use that you really can't go wrong with it.
