    The price increase combined with removing filters and all the addons really isn’t great. This just feel like another product that will be ruined by greed.

      At first I thought that the aeropress clear is more expensive because of “aesthetic tax” only.

      Price difference might be more tolerable if everything from the original aeropress are still included.

      You bet. At least a hardware product is a bit harder to ruin than a software service. 🥲

    found this pretty interesting as i recently dropped my old old aeropress and some of the side (fins?) came off. i use the fellow prismo, and it seems to hold well enough, but i can no longer use it with standard cap and filters. was thinking about getting a new one, but i think i’ll spring for a chemex instead and try that.

      I like my chemex, but the coffee it produces is very different from my aeropress.

      Not saying you shouldn’t go that route, just be aware

    Just searched for the original, and it no longer comes with a funnel or filter holder, and the number of filters seems to have been dropped to 100 as well. It seems to be a darker version of the clear now, but less than $40.

    Greed ruins everything.
