It’s fine if you like stove top coffee, I personally find it bitter and mostly undrinkable.
If you put hot water in it then heat really slowly, so the expanding air gradually forces through, then it’s not bitter. But it takes ages.
I’ve got an aeropress thanks. By the time all the fannying around is done then it’s just a shot of cold coffee.
Not sure what you do but it only takes a minute for me. Put kettle on, load aeropress with coffee and paper, when coffee is nearly boiledpour in (more than the markings suggest), stir with the t bar thing, wait ten seconds and press. Then pour the still nearly boiling water in the mug and you’re away. Less time than brewing tea.
