I like early adoption but in this case I'm gonna be lazy and trust you guys to do the reviews. Hurry up Peter.

I'm a strict adherent to the rasqualator/polyfelt cult, but secretly, only use my AP a few times per year.

And not to change the subject, my Kone is going up for sale too.  For so many years, my rut included a presspot that I just can't make the switch.

I liked the rasqualator felt solution a lot but sadly it disappeared during one of our moves. I'm back to the Aeropress paper filters now. Truthfully I find myself doing more Melitta one cup pourovers rather than Aeropress... when I'm not pulling a lever. ;-)

I occasionally use the AP, but I've discovered that my many-year consistent use of it, hitherto, was an exilic habit while awaiting a redemptive pourover.

With the Hario now on hand, I use the AP far less often. It probably makes just as good a cup, but I've always preferred pourover as a technique.

I tried out the Coava Disk this morning and I'm happy to report that I really like the cup it produced.  A very nice sweetness & clarity came through and the cup was decidedly better than using paper filters. Clean up is very easy as well - just a quick rinse under the faucet and its good as new. Definitely worth a try if you're an AeroPress user.

Well, now that I find that my AP is one of the old, BPA-laden models, none of this matters anymore. :(

It looks like I'm not the only one who thinks the Coava Disk let the coffee's natural "sweetness & clarity" (kinda eerie that we both used the exact same descriptors) to come through:

That's a damn good price. That AP looks like it's tinted or something. Mine is clear.

That might be a nice addition to carry on your new web site.
