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.
The number markings are a recognizable part of the AeroPress design and, by including them on Steel, we’re protecting our trademark. To help with fill guidance, the inside of the chamber includes a laser-etched mark at the 5 level that can be seen from above.
How do I use the numbers on the outside?
They address this in the FAQ:
“Protecting trademark”
Wow that’s the stupidest thing I’ve read in a while. Also very American (no offense intended)
I’m open to change my mind, but at a glance the plastic one seems better in many ways.
Ok this is really funny. 😂
I don’t use the numbers at all. I do inverted, and pull the plunger until it’s barely in the cylinder, and fill it from there.
That makes just enough coffee for a standard 10oz mug.
