While the AeroPress Premium is made of glass and metal, it is built to perform like our other coffee makers.

No, because the chamber is double-wall glass, it does not get hot.

Due to its hand-crafted nature, the AeroPress Premium is handwash only.

While the AeroPress Premium is built to perform like our other coffee makers, we do not recommend it for travel. Of course, as always with glass, a little extra care is suggested when handling as it can break.

You can run the filter cap under cool water for a few seconds before removing it from the chamber, or you can use a cloth to remove it.

Every AeroPress Premium is handmade of double-wall borosilicate glass. Because of this process, minor imperfections in the glass may occur.

The chamber is made of double-wall borosilicate glass and anodized aluminum (the flange). The plunger is made of anodized aluminum and silicone (the seal). The filter cap is made of stainless steel.

The AeroPress Premium chamber holds up to 10 oz. It is the same capacity as AeroPress Original, Clear, and Go Plus.

Yes.

AeroPress Premium is compatible with Standard size AeroPress filters.

It can make American style coffee, cold brew style coffee, or espresso style coffee (which can also be used in drinks like lattes and cappuccinos).

Due to the materials used in its construction, the AeroPress Premium should not be microwaved.

Yes.

It comes with a scoop, a stirrer, and paper filters.

Yes. Just grind your coffee, heat some water, stir and press!

You can make hundreds of recipes with an AeroPress Premium, but here’s an easy place to start! Put in 1 heaping scoop of medium-fine grind coffee, fill the chamber to the (4) with boiling water (or 185 degrees if you have a kettle), stir for 10 seconds, then press and enjoy. For more, check out our How to Use page!

When fully packed up in the mug with the lid on top, the AeroPress Go chamber and plunger, the accessories, and the 20 paper filters that fit into the travel filter holder weigh 11.4 oz. (323 g) altogether.

Up to 20 Standard size micro-filters.

All AeroPress Go parts except for the lid, plunger seal, and micro-filters are made of food-safe polypropylene that is free of BPA and phthalates. The lid and plunger seal are both made of food-grade silicone and the micro-filters are made of paper.

The AeroPress Go mug holds 15 oz. (444 ml) or almost two 8 oz. (237 ml) servings of American style coffee or cold brew coffee.

Yes.

The AeroPress Go comes with 100 AeroPress micro-filters.

The AeroPress Go is manufactured in the United States.

You can clean the AeroPress Go mug, and solid-color Go lids, in the top rack of your dishwasher. (Patterned Go lids should be hand washed.)

The AeroPress Original (which some just call “the AeroPress”) and the AeroPress Go both work in a similar way, but have some big differences. Most importantly, the AeroPress Go is optimized for work, travel and the outdoors because it’s designed for everything to pack up neatly in the included travel mug. See here for a breakdown of the differences and to see which version best fits your lifestyle! Please refer to this document for a side-by-side comparison of the AeroPress Go travel coffee press and the AeroPress Original coffee maker.

The AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter allows oils to pass through for a somewhat fuller-bodied cup of coffee, whereas the paper micro-filter keeps out those oils for a smoother, grit-free flavor profile. Whichever filter you use, you're sure to make a delicious cup!

Yes, the metal used in the AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter is a food-safe, premium grade 316 stainless steel.

The Standard size AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter works with AeroPress Original, Clear, Go, Premium, and Go Plus (not compatible with AeroPress XL). The XL size AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter works with AeroPress XL (not compatible with AeroPress Original, Clear, Go, Premium or Go Plus).

Yes, the AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter is made in the USA.

316 and 304 are two different grades of stainless steel. 316 is a premium grade of stainless steel that is much more durable and corrosion resistant than lower grade 304 stainless steel. The AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter is made from 316 stainless steel, unlike other metal filters on the market.

Yes, AeroPress also manufactures the AeroPress Gold Tone Super Fine Filter, a great option for fuller-bodied flavor with increased clarity. All other products on the market are made by third parties.

Yes, the AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter is dishwasher safe (top rack only).

The AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter has a 178 micron hole size.

For the best brewing experience, use a medium-fine grind size, shake to level the bed of coffee grounds before pouring in the water, and pour the water slowly. Read More

We recommend using a burr grinder instead of a blade grinder with AeroPress coffee makers. If you do use a blade grinder, we have found that it takes around 30 seconds of continuous grinding to achieve a medium-fine grind size with a blade grinder.

A good grinder will grind coffee into particles of uniform size. Very fine particles block the flow of water and make it difficult to press. The same blocking occurs if your grinder is dull because it produces particles of varying size and the fine particles will block the spaces between the larger particles.

All AeroPress scoops have the same capacity. A level scoop holds 11.5 grams of coffee or about 2.5 tablespoons. A heaping (rounded) scoop of coffee holds 14-15 grams or around 3 tablespoons.

Try the AeroPress XL coffee maker, which has twice the capacity of standard size AeroPress coffee makers!

If you have an AeroPress Original, Clear, Go Plus, Premium, or Go, you can make more servings at once if you brew "espresso style". See the instructions at the bottom of this page for how to do so!

All of our tasters agreed that coffee brewed at these temperatures tasted the best. These temperatures deliver smooth, rich brews without the bitterness and acidity that come with using hotter water. One of the advantages of AeroPress coffee makers is the user controls all the brewing process variables including the temperature of the water used. We recommend brewing with water of different temperatures to determine one's personal preference.

Look down into the chamber from above. The numbers on the outside are visible through the material particularly if looking down against a light background.

Ground coffee floating around in the chamber can make it difficult to judge the water level. Try pouring in half of the water, stirring to wet all the grounds, and then pouring up to the desired level.

Even when using the optimal medium-fine grind, it is normal for a minor amount of liquid (about 2-3%) to drip through prior to stirring and pressing. If a lot of liquid runs through prematurely, remember to shake to level the grounds and pour the water slowly. If an excess amount still runs through prematurely, you need to use a finer grind of coffee.

You may need to use a better or sharper grinder. A good, sharp grinder (ideally a good burr grinder) grinds coffee into particles that are all the same size. A cheap or dull grinder produces a wide variety of particle sizes and the very small dust-like particles at the fine end of the particle size distribution block the flow around the larger particles, turning the layer of coffee particles into a barrier that blocks your pressing.

Press gently, there is no rush. Pressing hard actually compacts the coffee particles into a barrier, making it harder to press. You can try pressing down half an inch, then hold the plunger there and let the air pressure in the chamber do the pressing for you. Then after 5 or so seconds of waiting, press another half inch down and repeat until finished pressing.

If the above two points don’t work, use a coarser grind (ideally medium-fine) until you get to where a minor amount drips through prior to pressing and slow, gentle pressing takes 20 to 40 seconds.

Many people say that espresso must be made with 9 bars of pressure. If you use this definition then no, AeroPress coffee makers do not make espresso. But if you define espresso by the taste of the drink in the cup, certainly many people think AeroPress coffee makers can brew espresso. Since coffee brewed by AeroPress coffee makers can be made into lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso based drinks, we feel it is important to use the term "espresso" when describing what AeroPress coffee makers brew so potential customers will understand how coffee brewed by AeroPress coffee makers can be enjoyed.

For an even more espresso-like experience, try the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap!

Yes. Please see our cold brew page for instructions on how to make cold brew style coffee with AeroPress coffee makers.

You can use any coffee when brewing with AeroPress coffee makers and you’ll get a delicious cup! But the bottom line is that the best coffee for AeroPress coffee makers is whatever coffee tastes best to you. Experiment with different roasters, origins, and roast levels, and maybe you’ll find your next favorite coffee!

Depending on what roast you’re using, you may want to switch up your brewing temperature. If you are brewing with light or medium roasts, a great place to start is a brewing temperature of around 175°F (80°C) water for dark roasts and 185°F (85°C) for medium and light roasts. But as always – experiment and see what tastes best to you!

We found in our taste tests that using slightly different brew temperatures for different roasts can yield great results. A great starting point is to brew with 175°F (80°C) water for dark roasts and 185°F (85°C) for medium and light roasts. These temperatures deliver smooth, rich brews without the bitterness and acidity that come with using hotter water, but as ever, they’re just a starting point. One of the advantages of AeroPress coffee makers is the user controls all the brewing process variables including the temperature of the water used. We recommend brewing with water of different temperatures to learn what tastes best to you!

Yes, you can make up to three 8 oz. cups of American style coffee at a time with an AeroPress Original, Clear, Go Plus, Premium, or Go by brewing "espresso style". Start by putting three rounded scoops of fine drip grind coffee in the AeroPress chamber, shake to level the bed of grounds, then fill up to the (3) on the chamber with hot water and stir for 10 seconds. Insert the plunger and press gently. You've now brewed three espresso-style concentrated "shots". Then, divide the "shots" into three different mugs and add hot water to bring the total serving to 8 oz. (237 ml) each. Enjoy!

Or, pick up an AeroPress XL coffee maker and make double the servings above with just one press!

A lot of people want to know how much coffee to use when they first begin brewing with an AeroPress coffee maker. As a starting point, we recommend one heaping scoop of medium-fine grind coffee, or 14-15 grams of coffee per cup.

All AeroPress scoops have the same capacity. A level scoop holds 11.5 grams of coffee or about 2.5 tablespoons. A heaping (rounded) scoop of coffee holds 14-15 grams or around 3 tablespoons.

The instructions provided with AeroPress coffee makers and also available to download from this website describe a starting point from which users can deviate if they wish. The taste of brewed coffee is affected by all the variables in the brewing process. When using an AeroPress coffee maker the user selects the water temperature, the brew time, the coffee to water ratio, etc. AeroPress coffee makers enable the user to control all the brewing process variables and thereby brew a particular coffee with a desired brewing recipe. Taste is personal. There is no right answer to the question of how to brew a particular coffee and there is certainly no right answer for how to brew all coffees. With that said, we think the methods described in the instructions are great for most coffees.

Some people brew with their AeroPress coffee maker upside down, which has been referred to as the “inverted method”. People who use the inverted method apparently do so to prevent premature drip-through of their coffee, to give them complete control over longer steep times, and to allow them to use coarser grind sizes.  However, we strongly discourage using this method as it can cause the coffee maker to be less stable and prone to mishaps that expose the user to potential burns from hot liquid.

For precision brewing, use the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap (compatible with AeroPress Original, Clear, Go, Premium, and Go Plus). It allows you to eliminate drip-through, extend your brew time for as long as you want, and use whatever grind size you prefer!

SAFETY NOTICE: The “inverted method” can cause the coffee maker to be less stable and prone to mishaps that expose the user to potential burns from hot liquid. Be advised that we strongly discourage using the inverted method because it is less stable and therefore prone to tipping over and exposing the user to hot liquid.

If you have an AeroPress Clear, Original, Go, Premium, or Go Plus, you should use a Standard size filter. If you have an AeroPress XL, you should use an XL size filter.

You should use a Standard size AeroPress paper or metal filter with the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap. It is not compatible with XL size AeroPress filters.

You can store any size AeroPress paper or metal filter in the AeroPress Organizer Stand.

Only Standard size filters are compatible with the AeroPress Filter Holder. It is not compatible with XL size AeroPress filters.

Only Standard size filters fit in the AeroPress Go Filter Holder. It is not compatible with XL size filters.

Up to 550 Standard size micro-filters.

No. The bleaching process used by filter paper manufacturers until the late 1980s used chlorine gas and the chlorine gas bleaching process created dioxin as a byproduct. In the late 1980s the filter paper mills switched to using what is called the non-elemental chlorine bleaching process (they use a chlorine compound, not chlorine gas) to eliminate producing dioxin as a byproduct.

AeroPress Standard size micro-filters are compatible with AeroPress Original, Clear, Go Plus, Premium, and Go. They are not compatible with AeroPress XL. AeroPress XL requires AeroPress XL paper micro-filters.

Coffee brewed by AeroPress coffee makers contains about one-fifth the acidity of drip brewed coffee and one-ninth the acidity of French press brewed coffee. Because of this it’s easier on your stomach.

Tests done by an independent researcher showed that the caffeine content of coffee brewed by AeroPress coffee makers is the same as comparable strength coffee brewed using other methods. People often find they enjoy their coffee stronger when it is brewed in an AeroPress coffee maker because of the lack of bitterness, so that would result in more caffeine per cup.

All materials used in AeroPress coffee makers are FDA and EU approved for use in contact with food, and are free of BPA and phthalates.

We stopped putting the water level marking numbers on the AeroPress Original plunger because we were concerned that they encouraged the use of the plunger in microwave ovens and we just do not know what effect microwaves have on the life of the rubber seal.

The bottom circular rim of the chamber is firmly clamped down on the paper micro-filter when you screw the filter cap onto the bottom of the chamber. Therefore all the coffee that you press down must go through the micro-filter paper. There is a tiny amount of coffee that instead of going straight through the filter and into your mug goes sideways through the micro-filter paper and emerges outside of the chamber in the filter cap. The side holes in the filter cap are there to enable this small amount of coffee to drip down into your mug. If those side holes were not there, some of this coffee would be pushed up and over the rim of the filter cap and then drip outside your mug.

The biggest mug you can press into with the AeroPress Original or AeroPress Clear has a top inner diameter of 3.75 inches (95mm). The smallest mug you can press into with the AeroPress Original or AeroPress Clear has a top inner diameter of 2.75 inches (70mm).

We removed the ridges from the AeroPress Original plunger because they were scratching the inside of the chamber and had no function. We initially put the ridges on the plunger because we thought they would provide needed additional strength. That was not the case and to our surprise they were a source of scratching of the inside of the chamber.

Plunger with Seal: 5.26" tall, 3.28" diameter

Chamber: 4.75" tall, 4.22" diameter (at widest part of the hexagon)

Compressed Plunger + Chamber: 5.26" tall (height of the Plunger), 4.22" diameter (diameter of Chamber)

The AeroPress Original, AeroPress Clear, AeroPress Go Plus, and AeroPress Go have the same cylinder diameter but the flange that supports the chamber on your cup is smaller on the Go. The Go can sit on a cup with a maximum inside diameter of about 3.25” whereas the AeroPress Original, AeroPress Go Plus, and AeroPress Clear can sit on a cup with a maximum inside diameter as big as about 3.75”. The AeroPress Original, AeroPress Clear, AeroPress Go Plus, and AeroPress Go will all press into a mug with a minimum opening diameter of 2.75”.

For day to day use, a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber clean as you brew. However, with the exception of AeroPress Premium (which is hand-wash only) you can wash AeroPress coffee makers in the dishwasher (top rack only, except for AeroPress Clear, which can be cleaned in the top or bottom rack). We recommend occasionally removing the food-grade silicone seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap. If your chamber ever gets sticky, wash it with vinegar.

Remove the seal from the end of the plunger and wash thoroughly inside and out with warm water and dish soap. There is no adhesive on the seal, so you can easily remove it for cleaning and then replace it on the AeroPress plunger.

While the AeroPress Premium is hand-wash only due to its handmade nature, you can clean all other AeroPress coffee makers in the top shelf of your dishwasher (although AeroPress Clear can be cleaned on the top or bottom shelf), but a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber. If your chamber ever gets sticky, wash it with vinegar. We recommend occasionally removing the food-grade silicone seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap.

Always eject the used coffee right after brewing and store your AeroPress coffee maker with the silicone seal pushed all the way through the chamber. This keeps the seal free of compression for longer seal life.

Best way to store AeroPress filters: The AeroPress Original Filter Holder is great for storing your filters on the kitchen counter. The AeroPress Travel Filter Holder has two compartments for dual storage of metal and paper filters (both Standard and XL size) and is a great option for filter storage on the go.

The seal does eventually wear down over time. To maximize seal life, always eject the used
coffee right after brewing and store your AeroPress coffee maker with the seal pushed all the way through the chamber. This keeps the seal free of compression for longer seal life. There is no adhesive on the seal, so you can easily remove it and then replace it on the AeroPress plunger. You can purchase
replacement seals from our website here: https://aeropress.com/products/aeropress-seal.

The seal can be cleaned using hot water and dish soap. We advise you to occasionally remove the seal from the plunger and wash it inside and out with hot, soapy water to prevent the accumulation of coffee oils. Use a paper towel to provide a little abrasiveness.

Your seal has become compressed and is no longer big enough to tightly seal the chamber. Whenever the seal is inside the chamber, it is being held compressed. Eventually the compression forces prevail and the seal becomes too small. To maximize the life of your seal you need to minimize the time your seal is held compressed. This means eject the spent coffee immediately after every pressing and store the seal either pushed all the way through or removed from the chamber.

Buy a new seal: The seal can easily be replaced on the end of the plunger so one solution is to buy a new seal on our website. With care, a new seal should last at least three years.

For a quick fix: Joe Lindsay sent us his short-term fix: First place the rubber end of the plunger in some hot water for a couple minutes. Then press the rubber end of the plunger onto a flat surface such as a cutting board. While pressing roll the seal around on its edge so that you are pressing the edge out, widening the circumference of the seal.

Yes. The black seal is fitted onto the end of the plunger. There is no adhesive. To fit the seal back onto the end of the plunger, position the seal on the end of the plunger and then turn the seal while pressing it onto the plunger until it gets fully seated.

The weight of the AeroPress Original (including the chamber and plunger, the filter cap, the scoop, and the stirrer) is 7.75 ounces.

When camping, backpacking or traveling light, the parts of the AeroPress Original you would take along (the chamber, the plunger, the filter cap, and however many paper microfilters you thought you’d need) weigh 6.5 ounces. You would leave the AeroPress scoop and stirrer at home, and use whatever spoon you were already bringing on your hike as a scoop and stirrer.

Holding the AeroPress coffee maker with the food-grade silicone seal facing you, brace your fingers around the chamber flange and push both of your thumbs against the seal. This will push the plunger up through the chamber making it easier to pull the two pieces apart.

This is like removing a screw top lid stuck on a jar. You can try lubricating the filter cap with a little water or cooking oil to make it easier to turn. Or, you can buy a sheet of rubber like material that is intended to help you grip the lids of jars to make it easier to twist the lids – try using one of those. You also can try running hot water over the filter cap (not the chamber). The filter cap expanding with heat may make it easier to turn.

AeroPress brand products are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for one year from the date of purchase from an authorized retailer. If you think you purchased a defective AeroPress product that is under warranty, please contact us and report the problem. We will promptly be in touch.

Always eject the used coffee right after brewing and store your AeroPress coffee maker with the food-grade silicone seal pushed all the way through the chamber. This keeps the seal free of compression for longer seal life.

Yes, you can take AeroPress coffee makers camping*! While any AeroPress coffee maker can be taken camping, the AeroPress Go and AeroPress Go Plus are perfect for a camping trip. We optimized the AeroPress Go and Go Plus’s designs to make them compact, lightweight and durable, and the included drinking mugs double as a carrying case.

*Due to its handmade glass nature, the AeroPress Premium is not the best choice for camping.

Take a piece of paper towel and soak it with a little canola or olive oil. Lay the oil-soaked paper towel flat over the residue, pressing to adhere, and leave it for 10 minutes. Then, remove the oily paper towel and wipe away any remaining oil with a clean paper towel. Wash your AeroPress chamber with dish soap and warm water. This should remove the residue.

For the AeroPress Original, Premium, and Clear, we recommend pressing into a glass mug or carafe only if it is sturdy. Do not press into thin or delicate glassware. For the AeroPress XL, do not press into any glass mugs or carafes.

We manufacture a carafe made from crystal-clear, shatterproof Tritan™ that’s perfect for brewing and serving. The carafe is included with the AeroPress XL coffee maker but also sold separately as it’s compatible with the AeroPress Original, Premium, and Clear coffee makers.

Tritan™ is a trademark of Eastman Chemical Company.

The seal is made of food-grade silicone. Silicones are rubber like materials that are primarily made of silicon and oxygen. They are frequently used in the manufacture of kitchen implements including those used for baking because of their non-toxicity and excellent durability including resistance to heat. Up until October of 2018 the AeroPress seal was made of a thermoplastic elastomer. Both the silicone and the thermoplastic elastomer are FDA and EU approved for use in contact with food.

The AeroPress Original and XL coffee maker chamber and plunger are made out of polypropylene (except for the food-grade silicone seal on the plunger). The stirrer, scoop, and filter cap are also made with polypropylene.

The AeroPress Go travel coffee maker chamber and plunger are made out of polypropylene (except for the food-grade silicone seal on the plunger). The stirrer, scoop, filter cap, travel filter holder, and travel cup are also made with polypropylene. The travel cup's lid is made of food-grade silicone.

The chamber and plunger of the AeroPress Clear and AeroPress Go Plus are made with Tritan™ (except for the food-grade silicone seal on the plunger). The AeroPress Clear and AeroPress Go Plus stirrer, scoop, and filter cap are made with polypropylene.

The AeroPress Premium chamber is made out of glass and anodized aluminum. The AeroPress Premium plunger is made out of anodized aluminum and silicone. The AeroPress Premium filter cap, scoop, and stirrer are made of stainless steel.

All materials used in AeroPress coffee makers are free of BPA and phthalates, and are FDA and EU approved for use in contact with food.

Tritan™ is a trademark of Eastman Chemical Company.

No. AeroPress coffee makers have always been free of phthalates and have been free of BPA since August of 2009.

Most AeroPress Original, AeroPress Go and AeroPress XL coffee maker parts are made of #7 polypropylene plastic, which is recyclable. The paper micro-filters are both recyclable and compostable. The plunger seal and the lid of the AeroPress Go mug are made of food-grade silicone, which is not recyclable. The AeroPress Premium and the AeroPress Clear are not recyclable.

The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap's valve doesn't open until users begin pressing. This creates a buildup of pressure that brews barista-worthy espresso-style coffee. The pressure-sensitive valve stops all drip through so that users can extend their brew times and control their brew.

You can clean the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap with a quick rinse, or it can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher.

An easy way to remove the paper filter is to use the end of your stirrer to gently brush the paper filter off of the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap. Once it has begun to peel away from the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap, the paper filter will be easy to tap out into the trash.

The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap is compatible with AeroPress Original, Go, Clear, Premium, and Go Plus (it is not compatible with AeroPress XL).

The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap makes an espresso-style concentrate that can be used in lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso based drinks. While it is quite similar to espresso, it is not real espresso.

The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap is designed in Silicon Valley and made in the USA.

Yes, you must use a Standard size filter with the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap. You can use an AeroPress Paper Micro-Filter, an AeroPress metal filter (either the AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter or the Gold Tone Super Fine Filter), or both at once to create a variety of delicious flavor profiles.

The AeroPress XL uses the same breakthrough technology as the AeroPress Original. As the only coffee maker on the market that combines the best of 3 brew techniques into one simple to use press, you get uniquely delicious, grit free flavor. Create Americano, espresso style, latte or cold brew tailored to your taste in 1-2 minutes. So what makes the AeroPress XL different? It has twice the capacity of the AeroPress Original.

The AeroPress XL can brew 2-4 cups of coffee at one time.

For day to day use, a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber clean as you brew. However, you can wash the AeroPress XL in the dishwasher (top rack only). We recommend occasionally removing the food-grade silicone seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap.

For the best brewing experience, use a medium-fine grind size, shake to level the bed of coffee grounds before pouring in the water, and pour the water slowly.

For the AeroPress Original, Premium, and Clear, we recommend pressing into a glass mug or carafe only if it is sturdy. Do not press into thin or delicate glassware. For the AeroPress XL, do not press into any glass mugs or carafes.

We manufacture a carafe made from crystal-clear, shatterproof Tritan™ that’s perfect for brewing and serving. The carafe is included with the AeroPress XL coffee maker but also sold separately as it’s compatible with the AeroPress Original, Premium, and Clear coffee makers.

Tritan™ is a trademark of Eastman Chemical Company.

Yes, it is (top rack and bottom rack safe).

Yes, it is BPA-free.

It comes with a scoop, a stirrer, and paper filters.

It can make one standard sized 10 oz serving of American coffee or cold brew, or up to three shots of espresso style coffee, with one press.

It can make American style coffee, cold brew style coffee, or espresso style coffee (which can also be used in drinks like lattes and cappuccinos).

Yes, it makes cold brew.

The AeroPress Clear uses the same breakthrough technology as the AeroPress Original. As the only coffee maker that combines the best of three brew techniques into one simple to use press, you get uniquely delicious, grit free flavor. Create American, espresso style, latte or cold brew coffee tailored to your taste in 1-2 minutes. What makes the AeroPress Clear different? It is made from Tritan™, which has the clear appearance of glass but not its fragility. The AeroPress Original is tinted grey and is made from polypropylene, which is cloudier in appearance.

You can make hundreds of recipes with an AeroPress Clear, but here’s an easy place to start! Put in 1 heaping scoop of medium-fine grind coffee, fill the chamber to the (4) with boiling water (or 185 degrees if you have a kettle), stir for 10 seconds, then press and enjoy. For more, check out our How to Use page!

Yes, it is a double wall, vacuum-insulated tumbler.

The AeroPress Go Plus chamber and plunger are made of Tritan™ (with a silicone plunger seal and chamber gasket). The scoop, stirrer, and filter cap are made of polypropylene. The tumbler is made of 18/8 stainless steel with a polypropylene bottom cap. The tumbler lid is made of Tritan™ with a silicone gasket and an embedded magnet.

Yes, it is cup holder compatible.

The AeroPress Go Plus tumbler holds up to 16oz of coffee, but the AeroPress Go Plus coffee maker makes a maximum of 10oz of coffee with one brew. If you want to fill up your tumbler, do two pressings: one filled to the (4) on the chamber, then one filled to the (3). Now you have a full tumbler of coffee!

It can make American style coffee, cold brew style coffee, or espresso style coffee (which can also be used in drinks like lattes and cappuccinos).

Yes, it does.

Yes, it is dishwasher-safe.

It includes the AeroPress Go Plus chamber, plunger, and filter cap, a tumbler with a built-in filter holder, a lid, a stirrer, a scoop, and paper micro-Filters.

It holds up to 25 paper micro-filters.

Yes.

Fully packed up, it weighs 1 lb 4 oz. (0.56 kg).

A very small amount of coffee can pool on or around the lid after the user takes a sip. If you snap the slider closed very quickly, that little bit of coffee may splash. You can avoid the splashing by closing the slider slowly and gently.

A very small number of Go Pluses had their magnetic slider installed upside down. However, there's an easy fix. As the slider is held on with a magnet, simply remove the slider, turn it the other way, and pop it back on. See here for an image showing how the slider should be oriented.

In order to ensure two critical functional design aspects for the Go Plus, it was not possible to fit an AeroPress Original, Premium, Go or Clear in the Go Plus tumbler. First, in order for the Go Plus to be cup holder compatible, it needed to have a narrower plunger top. Anything wider would have rendered it incompatible with most cup holders. Second, in order to ensure that the Go Plus packs up securely inside the tumbler, the bottom of the chamber had to be designed with two customizations that enable it to snap securely into place.
