Compact, indestructible, and incredibly versatile, the AeroPress is a favorite among travelers and coffee geeks alike. It uses air pressure to force water through the grounds, delivering a smooth, concentrated brew in under two minutes.

For a classic recipe, place a paper filter in the cap and rinse it. Add one rounded scoop of fine-to-medium ground coffee into the chamber. Pour hot water up to the number 4 mark, stir for 10 seconds, and insert the plunger. Press down gently and steadily for about 30 seconds until you hear a soft hissing sound. Drink it straight as a shot, or add hot water for a smooth Americano.
