Brewing Disk Stainless Steel Standard Filter for Aeropress Coffee Makers

I definitely noticed the change in my brew after buying this, the flavour just had more depth and tasted fuller. This also seemed to be noticed by people unaware of the change. Either that or I have just been making better cups.Anyway, convenience. Well it clearly trumps paper in this department as it's reusable and can be stored within the Aeropress at all times ready to go. Made travelling less of a hassle. I'm the type of person who would forget to pack paper filters anyway.I noticed that another reviewer claimed that this adds another cleaning step and they said that it was finicky. I disagree. I clean my aeropress before I enjoy my cup, it takes about 60 seconds to do, including washing this filter. After plunging I remove the filter and set it on the counter after running it under the tap for a literal second to clear most of the debris. Then I dump the grounds into another container (for fertilizer) by plunging the extra inch that is attainable after removing the filter area. I then rinse and wipe down the Aeropress quickly and finish by filling it with warm water, reattaching the filter and plunging the water straight out. A quick shake and it's ready to go back home. Reassembling the aeropress to plunge the water always removes the grounds that get stuck in the filter holes for me. Whole process takes no more than a minute.

Much better than stainless mesh filter that clog and can't be cleaned. Replacing mesh filters with these

Top bit of kit

As other have said, works great just a shame you don’t always get a puck. I tend to leave it in till it cools and not much to clean off the filters

So easy to use, amazing tasting coffee, love it

Works very well, and produces an excellent brew

I have found this disk to be an essential bit of kit if you have the AeroPress to make yourself a strong velvety coffee that has more in common with an espresso than a filter coffee.Always use the upside-down AeroPress method with this disk (you-tube has plenty of How-to Videos regarding this). 1 espresso cup of (~90 deg) water per 1 measure of ground coffee, ~20 seconds of stirring then ~20 second of extraction... and you're done!
