I dug my aeropress out of storage not too long ago after like 5 years. it was one of my first coffee tools and I thought I moved on when I got better stuff. I gotta say it's combination of convenience and taste is still unparalleled. It still works great and immediately went back into normal rotation lol

I agree, I've tried other methods (so far only pour over and French Press) and the Aeropress is by far the hardest to screw up. I'm usually adamant on my 2 minutes 30 seconds brewing time (I set a timer) but there have been times that I've forgotten to set it and let it brew for like 5-10 minutes and it still tastes largely the same. I still haven't made a pour over that was as good as an Aeropress brew. French Press is close, but it leaves a bunch of ground coffee in the bottom of the cup.
