This blew my mind. Same guy, two different inventions, both equally awesome
I have been awaiting the AeroPress Premium, which is made of glass and steel, since I started worrying a bit about microplastics. It's now available and even though it's expensive, I drink so much coffee that I splurged. Loved reading about the amazing guy who invented this thing that has added a lot of joy to my life.
