    Thats silly money.

    The charm of the AP is that it’s cheap and you can just lob it in your camping bag.

      Speaking of packing for camping, the website doesn’t say how much this new stainless steel version weighs, although I can’t imagine it’s too much heavier than the original plastic.

        I think it will be substantially heavier!

        No thermal insulation also a big minus in my eyes. Missed the vacuum insulation part…

          They need to vacuum insulate because heat conductive metal would be a stupid choice of material, as opposed to glass or plastic.

        Yeah I gave up on that idea - silicone pour over! Lightweight and crushable, no microplastics, works with standard paper filters and any method you want to generate hot water

        I’m fine keeping my press at home
