I love my aeropress, but this seems highly unnecessary to me. I think it’s great that I’ve had the old one for over a decade, I can chuck it in the sink or a drawer and it’s practically indestructible.
I can’t say I’ve ever once noticed my cup being cold after pressing so claims about heat loss feel suspect.
I suppose if you just want the same experience but to feel fancier while doing so and you have cash to spend on it, then go right ahead.
Heck I still chuckle when I am reminded of the aeropress XL. If folks aren’t aware the aeropress company was mostly bought out a few years back which may explain the recent burst in new fangled products.
Heat loss is related to glass, not plastic. Brewers made of glass, ceramics or metal must be preheated before brewing. For AeroPress Premium, heat loss may be not that big, but we need feedback from owners to know exactly.

Fair point, appreciate the clarification!
