So what's the benefit of an aero press over a French press? I've used the French press for years and I always see people loving aero press. I'm curious what the differences are.
Main difference is the fact that the aeropress uses a paper filter which filters out sediment and oils giving the coffee a "cleaner" taste. From my research before I bought it, I remember it also being slightly healthier because, again, you filter out those oils.
Interesting. I don't know if I'd ever describe the coffee I brew as oily or anything like that. I suppose I have to try this sometime.
Oh, no. It's not oily. Just a bit thicker. Like espresso. That's partly because of the oils that coffee has.
