Was the air press go the brand new era press?

The first, I think new product they've made in quite some time.

It's a new version of the air pressing.

If I'm honest, I'm not sure I entirely understand it now.

In their own words.

This is the better Travel copy press, and I think that's a really interesting decision, because the spot, as I could tell, most people already really liked the air.

A press of the travel brewer.

It was really easy to travel with.

It was light.

It was plastic.

It was hard to break.

You could get a grinder inside it.

If he's like a Pall ex or something like that on people really liked traveling with it.

I didn't feel like there was a problem traveling with it, So it's interesting to me.

The air pressed shows for a new model to pursue a better travel version.

So let's see what's inside the box.

So you get so you get this, which is which is the whole thing right like that?

The idea.

It's like an all in one travel solution.

So here you go red lead that keeps everything together.

You've got a little sort of papers holder that doesn't hold that many papers.

But you uncomfortably get maybe 15 20 filters in this thing inside here you've got.

Then your era press, which is a little bit smaller than a traditional era press.

You have your all important coffee scoop and you've got your brand new, uh, Steira for for staring, I guess.

That way, that way.

The stirring very important stuff.

Then you got this, Which is your trouble cup.

So the idea is that you be brewing on top of this, so it's kind of all in one.

Now I'm still just a little bit confused.

But before I explain that I should just talk through how they may be changed this compared to the original, I should clear some space.

So this is an original air A press on dhe.

It's obviously a little bit taller.

I'm surprised because I kind of feel one of the most common complaints about the air oppressed is that people wish it brood More coffee, right?

They wish it was bigger that they find the serving size a little bit small.

So the decision to shrink it is an interesting one, right?

Like a smaller air oppresses.

I feel like something no one was really asking for.

Aside from that, they changed the sort of the top of this to make this a little bit narrower.

So it's It's still perfectly comfortable to plunge with the plunger.

Dimensions are still exactly the same.

Which is good news, right?

This is a good thing.

It means that all of the fittings and fixtures of this thing, all of the replaceable is like the little rubber plunger.

They It's one part right, like if you don't need to buy a different part, it's just one thing.

And again, the filter paper holder at the bottom has changed very slightly.

It's still the same size.

It still takes the same papers, but the new one has, interestingly, a sort of ah blanked hole right in the middle, which I know that doesn't seem necessary.

There's a change.

I feel like does this actually, Yeah, the original fits completely find.

I don't actually know whether changed that.

It looks like there's actually less open surface area on the new one, right?

So this actual peace will be providing a little bit more resistance So that's Ah, that's an interesting choice to make, but it's the same size.

Writes the same papers.

You have to buy different papers.

There's none of that.

By and large, it's There's no kind of cheeky trying to sell you new stuff here, right?

They've just made a shorter air press.

They're sort of locked the top off the change that the sort of so shapes down here again, I think just to make it narrower so that it all fits inside a cup.

Now I will promise you a brew, some coffee, and I promise you that at some point I will.

I promise.

Talk about how I brewed coffee with an air press and maybe give Cem Brewing, taking kind of guidance there.

This is not that video there.

So I'm not gonna talk about how to brew with an air of press.

I'm just going to talk about this era press.

You are now free to go.

I think about a travel brewer, and I think about the situations in which I might use a travel brochure.

I might use one traveling, though, To be honest, traveling usually means I'm in a hotel of some sort and making coffee there or to some people.

Travel might be suitable for some of the office right, like no one really likes.

Nice coffee at work, But you do.

So you take your own brewer and you, dear and stuff.

But you do it at work, I guess this camping, which is the thing that some people do some of the time.

And then what's left.

I mean, people make air presses on airplanes, which I find astonishing, fascinating, terrifying in all of those situations, in very few cases, on my missing a cup, right, like that's That's the kind of big change in this set up, which is you always have some sort of drinking vessel with you.

But if I'm in a hotel, if I'm in an office, if I'm actually on an airplane, I probably can have access to a cup of some sort.

That's not really the problem that I have.

I'm intrigued that that this was the solution that they went for right, which required shrinking a device that people already thought was a little bit small and they didn't really, in my opinion, sort of look at some of the other challenges people have the biggest one for most people is that you need.

If you care about coffee, you need to have a grinder, Right?

And the old era press was great because it was just big and open, and you could get a grinder inside it, and that was a nice way to sort of trouble.

He could tuck some papers down the side of there to get your little hand grinder in there and then is a pretty all in one bundle.

You just needed coffee, beans, hot water and a cup.

I'm sort of surprised that air Press didn't go for a unit where they had sourced a nice little grinder to go inside this.

And that was part of the whole travel deal that that, you know, they'd built something specifically to fit inside here.

I feel like that's the big wind on right now.

I don't know of any grinder that will fit inside this, because when it's all put together, you can't have anything sticking out, right?

Like it's got a fed exactly in this little space, and that's a little bit frustrating to me Now.

I'm no picking on this, bro.

I'm not being negative about it.

It's still on air.

Oppressive still brews very good coffee, if you use it right.

I'm just surprised that with a new product, they chased such a narrow use case of like I have everything I need except a cup, right?

That's the big innovation here.

Like I have everything I need except a cup, and it's nice that the Steira folds down.

Now that's kind of useful on.

If I had both, I'd get rid of the original sterile and just keep this around like that's better.

This is a cute way to keep your papers because it was always annoying when you were travelling and your paper's got kind of crumpled up on.

Damaged are often a little bit damp that always drove me crazy.

But the cup?

I'm not sure I need a cup.

I'm not sure I need a cup, but let's drink out of the cab.

That's kind of what's missing here.

I should make some coffee with this now because it's smaller.

There are really two ways to breathe the air.

A press right, like you could bring the traditional way.

We put coffee and hot water in a way you can do what's called the inverted method, where you take the cap off and you sort of standing up like that and you brew in that way on, people do the inverted method because essentially, you have a much better infusion because no liquid can leak through the paper into the cup below.

The downside of an inversion brew is that you shrink the volume capacity of this brewer on because this is already smaller.

I'm definitely not going to do an inversion brew, so I'm definitely gonna brew the traditional way.

So despite appearances to the contrary, I'm now organized have rinsed my filter paper.

She's ready to go on top of my cup.

I have 15 grams of a reasonably find coffee.

Even add 200 mils because this is an infusion brought to me.

So 75 grams per liter makes sense, and away we go.

So we're gonna add my full water.

See how full 200 grams is in this thing.

Who is going before I give this a little stir?

I don't know where to put this.

Maybe that's what we sacrifice the lid for on then lid on.

And now we wait.

Now I'd like to refuse for about a minute in these situations with this kind of grand setting, the air presses really about marrying your grind size and your infusion time.

I would recommend not too much agitation in terms of staring enough to make sure that all the coffee and all the water or in contact, but not so much that you're doing a lot of work with that kind of extraction.

I just don't really.

I love the taste of it before we stern plunge.

Always take it off the scales because you don't be pressing on the scales.

It's very bad for but say break a scale, Give this war a little stir and then we're gonna gently from an awkward seated position Press.

It's very exciting to watch me do this, isn't it?

Turn it upside down.

Leave it there for a minute.

Leave it there now.

Interesting to me to note that we were close to the capacity of that brewer.

But we're about halfway up the cup.

I mean, it's it's This is kind of pointless.

This is not a review of the brewer.

We all know the air presses a good brewer.

We know there's a competition devoted to it for good reason.

It's a great play thing, but this is about the changes.

They've made the Cup, that they have included.

The decisions in some of that design that I just don't necessarily get.

Let's try and, uh, a little sip.

It's not.

It's not a stunning drinking experience.

It's not a really particularly smooth edge on the Cup.

It's not actually beautifully finished in that regard, this little little bits on mine that I know stunned by.

It's not a bad drinking experience, but but it's no elevating it in that regard.

It's okay.

It's okay.

I mean, the coffee's good.

That's Ah course and given.

So let's answer the question.

Should you get an air press go and one, it's an Arab rest.

If you like the way the air press bruise, it's a narrow presto.

It's just a little bit smaller.

If your problem with the air a press has been that you lose papers that you find it hard to keep it all together, that you are often struggling for something to drink your brew out off.

Yes, this is a good choice.

This is a nice, neat little setup It's cute the way everything packs together.

It looks good.

I like the red cap.

Yes, get it.

If you wish the air press was bigger if you wish the era press was more compatible with a grinder of some sort was easier to get a grounder inside or trouble with.

This is not for you, but I'm probably in the latter camp.

If I'm honest, you know, like I would probably was traveling and I need to throw on air press in my bag.

I would throw an original air a press in my bag.

I still really like the brewer.

It's a good brewer.

Maybe it's just me.

Maybe I just don't get it.

Maybe you're watching this and thinking I'm an idiot for not seeing the advantages here.

Let me know.

Let me know.
