Whereas we anxiously look forward to official launch particulars of the rumored XL model of their iconic brewer, the oldsters at AeroPress have been busy churning out different new merchandise and equipment to whip the press brew fanatics right into a frenzy. Together with the already confirmed AeroPress Clear (which is precisely what it seems like), a glass, stainless-steel, and aluminum AeroPress Premium made an look earlier this 12 months at Ambiente, a world shopper items commerce present in Frankfurt, Germany, that many are already coveting (which, together with the AeroPress XL, shall be available on the SCA Expo later this month).
Then there’s the brand new Circulate Conrol Filter Cap. The most recent official AeroPress accent offers customers extra management over their brew, permitting for lengthy brew instances and a wider vary of grind sizes.
In keeping with the web site, the brand new Filter Cap makes use of a “pressure-actuated valve” that forestalls any espresso drip-through whereas the espresso is steeping within the chamber. No inverted technique (nor the related threat of spilling sizzling espresso slurry in every single place on the flip) required. This helps convey the brewer one step nearer to true espresso. The valve doesn’t open till the person presses the plunger down. This enables for a larger stress buildup that assist create “espresso-style crema,” per the web site.
With the totality of the brew staying put, customers have even have larger management over the full brew time in addition to opening up the brewer to bigger grind sizes; as a result of the grinds are now not accountable to basically choke the brew and maintain all of the water from passing by way of earlier than the press, a wider swath of particle sizes can be found to the person.
And since the Circulate Management Filter Cap is suitable with AeroPress’s paper and metallic filters (and even each on the similar time), the brew choices and recipes are solely restricted by the person’s creativeness.
Now out there for buy, the Circulate Management Filter Cap retails on the AeroPress web site for $24.95. It’ll maintain us throughout till the XL will get right here. However I would like that huge boy. I’ve bought jumbo love. Give us the XL.
