(trilema) nubbins`: life's a scam, so you better try to get yours!
(trilema) nubbins`: that's one outlook, yes
(trilema) nubbins`: but for a lower price

(trilema) nubbins`: inventor ragequit the coffeegeek forums after a months-long argument about whether it's "espresso" or not :D
(trilema) nubbins`: the aeropress actually makes an "espresso-like concentrate", that you then top up with hot water
(trilema) nubbins`: you can get away with using less, tho
(trilema) nubbins`: compensates for the 30 second brew time
(trilema) nubbins`: like 2x what you'd use for drip
(trilema) nubbins`: fair warning, they suggest you use a large number of beans per cup
(trilema) nubbins`: don't bother with a spare pack of filters, they give you like 300
(trilema) nubbins`: and although you could probably throw it at a brick wall without breaking, that's probably not enough to justify the cost
(trilema) nubbins`: consider that if ROOR made an aeropress it'd probably cost $200

The hard black filter cap, filter holder, funnel, and stirrer are made of polypropylene. The rubber like seal on the end of the plunger is made of a thermoplastic elastomer. All of these materials are FDA approved for use in contact with food. None of these materials contain bisphenol-A
(trilema) nubbins`: have been using one for ~3 years now, no signs of degradation
(trilema) nubbins`: yeah, i brew at 80C
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway, copolyester is what the aeropress is made of
(trilema) nubbins`: "oh whoops it's not lel sorry"
(trilema) nubbins`: remember when everyone thought BPA was safe?
(trilema) nubbins`: don't be sorry
(trilema) nubbins`: not sure offhand what type of plastic it's made from
(trilema) nubbins`: guy who invented the aerobie made it
