Summary:	Best Coffee EVER!
Comment:	This funky little gadget makes an incredible cup of joe! My husband and I were given the AeroPress as a gift and we were so happy with it that we gave our standard coffee maker away. It takes a little getting used to, but once you figure it out, there is no going back. The bonus of this product is that there is no electricity needed, so we travel with it and even take it camping! We love the AeroPress and have since bought it for several of our friends.

Summary:	A few tips
Comment:	This truly is a great coffee maker. I have one at work and two or three at home (in case one breaks). The manufacturer says you can reuse the filters, and you can! Oh baby. A filter lasts me 2 days to a couple of weeks. Maybe longer. The upshot is that a pack of filters will last a very long time. Eventually, the filters will get torn, and you'll have to replace. Here's another tip. Sand down the rim of the filter holder to make it flat. I used a fine grit sandpaper on a flat surface and sanded down the rim until I saw uniform scuff marks on the whole surface. Why do you want to do this? So that the filter is held tighter and doesn't fall out when you go to throw out the grinds -- it's a real drag to dig through the trash can to get the filter back.
