Has turned me into a coffee snob -- nothing seems to taste quite as good now.
My wife thinks it takes a little too long to make a cup now, so she still uses her k-cup refillable pod and my good beans... but that's fine.
Honestly, I have no patience -- and making a regular french press in the past was a pain - I think mostly because of the cleanup time. With the aeropress, cleanup is the simplest thing ever!
I will mention - the instructions are stupid -- keep the aeropress inverted while you let the grinds / water stoop for a minute... .THEN invert on your cup and press. If you invert and let it stoop (as instructions mention) -- it all drips out through the filter and there isn't much left to press after 60 seconds.
I'm a huge fan of Black Rifle Coffee Company (BRCC) and these guys have a great short video demonstrating the best use of the aeropress.... I've found it to make the smoothest, nicest cup of coffee with virtually any bean now - 4 months of super, duper happy coffee drinking!
