I took the AeroPress camping for the best camper-coffee ever!

@batonrye Same here. Once took it on a camping trip with other dads and their kids. Our tent had the best morning coffee all throughout the camp site, thanks to the Aeropress.

Can you use your own grind coffee beans for this coffee maker?

[boyblue1171]

@Metsada007 Yes you can use your own grind. Preferably a fine grind of any coffee you want.

Remember that the Aeropress requires a fine grind similar to espresso while French presses require a coarse grind similar to percolator. Another plus about brews from the Aeropress is that it is very clean due to the paper micro filter.

So this or the french press, which one wins in your opinion?

[boyblue1171]

For me, Aeropress wins by a wide margin. I don't get the full flavor of the coffee with a French Press. Not mention that I need to wait at least 4 minutes for the coffee to brew in the French Press.

Then, there's also the fact that I can take the Aeropess when I travel because of its rugged durability.

@pamemake I love acidity in coffee so coffee in Aeropress tastes dull with less flavor and it requires more coffee to be used than other methods.

I love a good mug first thing in the morning, got some good brand ideas from coffeeloverstipsandtricks (.) com

@wangouthangout I just got one and once I get the water heated, it's only 30 seconds before I've got a warm cup of coffee.

[wangouthangout]

Surely that's not enough time to brew!

Hi, could you explain why the HandPresso is better?
