What does it take to clean? I'm supremely lazy so I've been content with instant coffee where I just clean the mug, but if I can have superior coffee with just a bit more effort then I'm willing to buy in.
I highly recommend an Aeropress. The clean up is amazing. Half a turn to unscrew the bottom, give it a bit more of a press and the filter/grounds pop right off into whatever you want to put them. Quick rinse and wipe and your done.
No electricity, highly portable, just need a source of hot water
Sturdy mug you can press down on comfortably highly recommended
Interesting. It looks like it uses paper filters, which I'm looking to avoid, however thanks for the recommendation!
You can get metal filter inserts, which last a year or so.
Thats what i used before swapping to an espresso machine
Oh sweet i didnt know that. Ill have to check it out!
I had to run plain water through it when I first took it out of the box, and the directions say if it needs cleaning you just run white vinegar through it once every few months. I just run the reusable filter under the sink when I'm done making coffee
So, it doesn't need any lotion?
I just can't deal with lotion or baskets until I've had my morning coffee...
