AeroPress Clear Single-Serve Coffee Press

A: If you aren't already, wet the rubber tip of the plunger before you start. That should ease things up.

A: No! I have this problem too. Now I set my cup in the sink and press it there. Better leverage, and if the cup breaks, the mess is confined to the sink. (Haven’t broken one yet though.)

A: Thank you for your question. First of all, please try pressing 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 doesn't work, try using 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. We hope that this helps! Thank you, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question! The AeroPress Clear comes with the press itself (chamber and plunger), a filter cap, a stirrer stick, a scoop, an instructions sheet, and paper filters. Best wishes, Constance, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question! The AeroPress Clear works in the following way: Place a paper filter into the filter cap. Screw the filter cap onto the bottom of the chamber. Place the chamber on top of a sturdy mug. Add ground coffee and hot water to the chamber, and stir together for about 5 seconds. Then insert the plunger and press gently until all of the brewed coffee is pressed out of the chamber and into your mug. We hope that this helps! Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question. Yes, the AeroPress Clear can be used to brew espresso-style coffee. Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question! Yes, the only difference between them is the material that they are made of. The AeroPress Clear is made of crystal-clear shatterproof TritanTM, while the AeroPress Original is made of grey-colored polypropylene. Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question. When filled to the very top, both the AeroPress Original and AeroPress Clear will brew around 10 oz with a single pressing. Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question. Tritan is a BPA-free copolymer plastic. Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.

A: Thank you for your question! Yes, you can make cold brew quickly and easily with AeroPress. Add 1 heaping scoop of medium-fine ground coffee to the chamber, then shake to level. Add cold or room temperature water to the (4) mark on the chamber and stir briskly for 60 seconds. Then insert the plunger and press through. We hope that this helps! Best wishes, AeroPress, Inc.
