Aeropress

AeroPress, noun: Method of preparing filter coffee in a cup. Here, a small paper filter is rinsed out with water and inserted in the plexiglass cylinder. Ground coffee is then put in the cylinder on top of the filter and hot water is poured over the ground coffee. After steeping for 90 seconds, the cylinder is placed on a cup and pushed through using the accompanying plunger. The resulting coffee is very intense and robust. It’s so popular among connoisseurs that there is even a World AeroPress Championship (WAC).
