This brew, although in a legacy AeroPress, requires enormous force to get through the column. The JoePresso v2 allows for only a tiny single jet stream of liquid to pass through. This, combined with the tamp, requires me to put the setup on the floor and press most of my body weight over top the Aeropress. After several broken glasses, I ordered the plexiglass tubing to make the brewing contactless. Although it’s harder to see what is happening, it has the added benefit of allowing the glass, in this case a turkish tea cup, to be filled all the way to the top. The presentation with bubbles and all is truly spectacular!
The taste is something else.
