The Aeropress is portable, lightweight and brews a sweet, full-bodied cup wherever you are: at home, camping or on a road trip. The Aeropress brews the coffee by soaking grind's then pressing the water through the coffee and the results are somewhere between several brew methods, not quite plunger but stronger than a Chemex.

Chemex

This iconic brewer with a enduring design was invented in 1941. It is easy to use and brews a ‘clean’ cup, maintaining body and balanced floral notes.

plunger

Easy to brew and super consistent, the Plunger or French Press is very reliable. Its classic and well-engineered design hasn’t changed much since its invention in 1929, and it’s perfect for making multiple cups of heavy-bodied coffee in 4 minutes.
