Yay, new coffee brewing methods! ☕️ 👓 But, I have to wonder - how does it differentiate from the age-old Aeropress?

@lukasfittl I can't see a difference. Aeropress is like highly praised and reviewed forever.

@johnnyquachy @lukasfittl it looks to me that you use the very same container to carry and drink from. That is, it is self-contained. It is hard to see in the attached video but it is better explained in the Kickstarter video.

It's main differences with aero press I can see @lukasfittl and @johnnyquachy is that 1) it includes the container for the extracted coffee, 2) somewhat more complicated (easier to break?), 3) build in filter ? My main question though - does the coffee taste better then aero press. Most coffee in big chain coffee places isn't actually that great. Aero press beats it each time for me.

Interesting product. As a coffee aficionado (did i really just say that?) i think this has a lot to offer and has a lot of benefits that can compare to Aeropress. It's going to be hard to get into the Aeropress fan's mind but it has a lot to offer like i said. Only time will tell if its actually good or worth it after a large amount of people have tried and tested it and really tested it against the mighty Aeropress. Obviously this offers a more travel-friendly product but it looks quite bulky and not sure how many people will take it on their commute. It can be good for business travel though.

Spotted this the other day. I think the problem with this setup is that it's not very cost-effective at its current price point, no matter if the coffee is very good. The Aeropress is $30. You can buy a cup of about this quality or better at Target or Bed Bath and Beyond for $10-$15. The product, as pictured, goes for $56. On the other hand, I perhaps shouldn't talk since I own this: http://amzn.to/1MDm3B6 It only holds about 13 ounces of coffee, which is smaller than a Grande-size cup you can get at the Bucks. I think this is interesting, but the average person might be happier buying a nice cup rather than one with a lot of extra parts. Something I think is going for it, however, is the fact that it appears to be a little more fool-proof than the Aeropress—but that also means the cup is less flexible and discourages the kind of experimentation that the Aeropress is known for. Hoping that the price point goes down after it goes into production.
