Make delicious pressed coffee in just one minute from home

I gave the AeroPress coffee maker a go even though I'm not one for ground coffee at home. I prefer instant coffee as it's the easiest and quickest way to make coffee without a special gadget - or so I thought until I tried this little one.

The AeroPress is so simple to use, and I admit that I was a little sceptical about using it at first, but what I discovered using ground coffee with the AeroPress coffee maker was that the taste and flavour couldn't be faulted. It's much richer, smoother and flavoursome than an ordinary instant coffee - I'd even go as far to say it has everything you'd ever want if you're wanting a delicious cup of coffee.

If you're wondering how the AeroPress coffee maker works, it's so simple, and in as little as one minute you'll have the perfect cup of coffee. To achieve this, all you need to do is place your filter at the bottom of the gadget, place the required amount of ground coffee scoops on top, add your water (hot or cold), stir and press! It is honestly that easy.

Make a delicious pressed coffee in four simple steps!

It will make up to three cups of coffee in one go - so whether you want a coffee, espresso, or a cold brew this little coffee maker will do just that. Best of all, its innovative technology allows for a shorter brew time, leading to no bitterness, and less acidity, while the filter ensures your coffee is completely grit free!

What's more, it's so light and compact that you can take it with you anywhere, whether that be on a weekend away, on holiday, or even just to the office. Once you've used it, cleaning it is even easier, just remove the filter holder to empty the coffee remains, give it a quick rinse, and you're all done... until next time!

Add your choice of delicious ground coffee

The price may put you off at first as it's not particularly cheap for such a simple gadget. At £35 you'd be right in thinking that it's a little steep, but, if you enjoy a rich, smooth, delicious coffee, then the AeroPress will certainly be worth the investment in the long run, especially if you're a coffee lover who enjoys as close to a barista style coffee as you can get from the comfort of your home.

To get you started, when you purchase the coffee press, you'll receive filters, a scoop and a stirrer. The coffee is not included, so if you don't already have ground coffee in the cupboard, don't forget to purchase that as well - For a mouth-watering option, I used Blue Mountain Coffee 100% Jamaica Roasted and Ground, £20.49. For more option - follow the link to view the full range of ground coffee that's available to buy on Amazon.

AeroPress accessories included with your purchase

The AeroPress isn't the only option either, if you want similar tasting coffee results at a more affordable price then you may want to take a look at the RAINBEAN French Press Coffee Maker - £9.34, the Portable French Press Coffee Maker - £29.99, or the BODUM Travel French Press Coffee Maker, £24.11.

For an updated, slightly more expensive, sleeker version of the Aeropress for all the coffee lovers, feast your eyes on the AeroPress Clear Coffee Press – 3 in 1 priced at £49.96.
