Ah okay.

Do you use the paper filters or the steel one?

i prefer paper but if you like a chewy coffee then metal is good too. i still haven't gotten through the original filters they last forever

my opinion of aeropress overall is that it gives great results and it's cheap with replaceable parts, and convenient if you're travelling or something and want good coffee. but it quickly gets time consuming if you're making more than one cup so i only use it sparingly when in the mood

ive found the big rubber stopper can get weird and sticky, idk if it was from several years of uv exposure or what. but you can just buy a replacement stopper ($6 for two on amazon) if it comes up

also i like to put everything into it upside down and stir, then put the filter and cap on then flip it over onto a mug
