I wish more companies made low sugar drinks that did not try to make up for their low-sugarness by adding a bunch of apologetic faux-sweetness (sucralose, aspartame, whatever.) Why not just make some of your stuff (iced teas, juices, etc.) with half the sugar in it?
I agree with you 1000%. Big companies know a lot of people are watching the sugars call it low carb if yiou want. One day someone will wake up and smell the low sugars in life.

Aeropress - basically a coffee syringe. - http://www.flickr.com/photos...

My first cup was an americano made with Blue Bottle Hayes Valley Espresso coffee. I had a cup of drip from the Blue Bottle cafe this morning (because of my accident with the siphon) and I have to say that the results from the Aeropress were extremely similar.
- Robin Barooah
It came with a carrying bag which is useful since I'll need it at home while I wait for the new siphon funnel.
- Robin Barooah
Does that make it a worthy buy?
- John Samuelson
I used it again yesterday - had 3 cups during the course of the day. I have to say the results were consistently very good. It is very easy to control the amount of coffee you make and how strong it is, and it is as quick and easy to clean as they say. It also produced great results every time with no real practice - which is not true of hand dripping or siphoning. The only drawback, if you can call it that, is that it has no romance to it at all - it's almost like using a medical appliance.
- Robin Barooah
LOL @ syringe... it goes PERFECTLY with the IV ;)
- Mona Nomura
Tried this with the Jamaican Blue Mountain. Surprisingly, FAIL. It tasted good, but had none of the richness I got from dripping. The Aeropress seem to do a very good job of extracting the sweeter notes but doesn't handle the body well, so it will make an average coffee taste sweeter, but do violence to something that's already well balanced.
- Robin Barooah
I think I'm going to relegate this for coffees that are past their prime.
- Robin Barooah
(note: that last comment doesn't mean that I have stopped thinking this is great - I'll be using the siphon or hand dripping instead)
- Robin Barooah
So you're having good luck with Blue Bottle beans, generally? That's what I'd typically be using.
- Veronica
Yes, generally great with them.
- Robin Barooah
Just having a cup of the Temescal Espresso made using the Aeropress. Very nice indeed. Definitely works well with espresso/mokka pot blends.
- Robin Barooah
i live in turkey and i dont know how can i buy. how much money did you pay for Aeropress? is it expensive?
- fatih gül
I'm not sure how to buy one in turkey. Amazon.com sells them - do they ship to turkey: http://www.amazon.com/AeroPre... ?
- Robin Barooah
thank you robin:)

- Admiral70
i've had coffee made from just about every brewing method around and this one, hands down, makes the best cup of coffee I've had. very highly recommended.
