NEW AeroPress Go Plus - The GO I Wanted to Begin With

[@bradsyoutube]

For me, it wasn’t the release of different APs. It was the fact that they decided to not include the original accessories. Along with the price increase it just didn’t gel. It felt anti-customer focused. Increase the price, fine, but don’t skimp as well. I still love my aeropress 😉❤️

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Yeah one thing I have learned is there is a widely varied attachment to the accessories they got rid of. I never used my funnel and I found the filter holder… bad 🤣. IMO, they made the overall initial experience of the aeropress overall more confusing and I was actually fine to see them go. BUT some people (including local friends of mine), use those accessories all the time. So I get both sides of this, but I also applaud Aeropress on finally delivering on other things people had been asking for for years

[@bradsyoutube]

@@DaddyGotCoffee give credit where credit is due. I agree. We do tend to focus on the negative unfortunately

[@pkwan970]

Totally agree. The aeropress used to include 350 filters, enough to last you a long time. but they cut it down to 100......come on! those are dirt cheap. Also charging $9.95 for filter holder and $9.95 for funnel on the aeropress website! that is ridiculous.

[@stephencraker3988]

I loved the funnel. I didn’t use it as a funnel. Instead I used it as a base to press on for small-mouthed thermoses and mugs (eg contigo)

[@T100ley]

The plastic bottom is actually great cheap replacement, and for minor drops won’t dent.

[@TheGOF]

I hauled my 2010 model around the world (military) for over a decade. Used a Crown Royal bag to keep the parts together. Carried a cheap plastic coffee cup with a travel lid because it looked indestructible. It was. The Aeropress was often my only source of coffee for months at a time and it’s still going strong. This new version would improve some on my current method, but it’s hard to just ditch my old friend.

[@Scandinavianalpscoffeeroasters]

We love the aeropress GO. The red cap has two good functions. We use it to weigh out our beans into and then it folds to does your coffee into your aeropress. The 2nd thing it is good for is to fit under the travel cup to give it more friction to place on uneven surfaces when camping. ⛺️

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

I have used my Go cap as a coaster on rocks and stuff. I forgot about that! Thanks for dropping this!

[@bouncyafro4175]

On the contrary, I find the cap to be extremely useful as a bean measuring tray/funnel for handgrinders. It weighs almost exactly 50g, so if you forget to tare your scale, you can just do easy maths to get to your desired amount of coffee. Also, since the cap is pliable I can very easily shape it into a funnel so that beans flow into my handgrinder without creating a giant mess in the process.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

You guys are teaching me all these niche use cases for the go cap I never thought of and I’m here for it 😂☕️

[@sunrainsky5617]

Can you share more on how to get the desired amount of coffee with that?

[@shorina_fm186]

I think I will stick to my AeroPress Go as the squarish shape makes it easier to find room inside my bag.

[@KarlaStorm]

Thank you! I’m considering purchasing my first AeroPress for a camping trip and your video was incredibly informative and helpful.

[@dsb1302]

I didn't like that magnetic thing on the lid. Apparently, it was made for Americans who mostly move around by car. I live in Europe, and in my use case, I put the mug in my bag and went on foot around the city. I made sure that the mug was always upright, but still, the coffee spilled all over my bag. It would be great if they made something more airtight than that magnetic thing. Now I'm looking for something to replace the standard lid, but there's nothing like that. This makes me regret paying the extra $40 for the thermal mug instead of buying a regular Aeropress and a good airtight thermal mug separately.

[@BlakEstrada]

The original aero press go still fits amazing in Soto’s thermal stack cup. The thermal stack is an insulated cup that come apart into two cups and allow you to boil water and make your coffee and stack back into a thermal cup after. Best cup for backpacking with an AP or any pour over. The go plus is probably better suited for making coffee at work where you have a kettle. I also wish the stir stick wansnt plastic. I’ll probably replace it with a cop stick

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

I’ll have to check out that stack cup!

[@kerry1383]

So you boil your water in the middle sized mug, then use the smaller inner “thermal” cup to press your coffee into? When not in use you nest everything inside the inner and middle sized pots from the Soto kit? Pretty cool idea, it’s a shame there’d be no room for the stove tho.

[@BlakEstrada]

@@kerry1383 yup then the little one go in the middle size keep it insolated

[@sunrainsky5617]

When you say fits amazingly, are you talking about combining it like how the aeropress go combines with its cup?

[@BlakEstrada]

@@sunrainsky5617 as if the cup from soto was made for the aero press go.

[@NightFate]

Over several years of regular travel I tried to hone my kit into something like that. I appreciate these being released, so there's now a readymade option for gifting friends/family. In my travel kit, I put the plunger in backwards and put the whole thing in a 12 oz stainless "Elemental Artisan Insulated Tumbler"(Amazon) with ceramic lid . My grinder fits in the plunger with a prismo on top and the lid gets wrapped in a towel, all in a canteen bag with the stirrer, and a scale. It used to be quite compact until I started bringing the collapsible kettle too

[@username566-jb8sx]

I would like to see this setup. I'm trying to find a compact way to carry everything together.

[@gabrielalehle6135]

Usually I'm not a fan of x iterations of the same product, bc in most cases it's just marketing. But I see that Aeropress is also making products that the community was asking for. Bigger Aeropress? Got it! Colorful body? On it! A fancier and higher end Aeropress Go? There you go! If I hadn't bought the og Go just a couple months ago, I'd probably pay more bucks for this. I love hove compact and easy to store and travel with the original is, but I can't get my coffee to go. This solves the problem :D

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Exactly!

Paper filter vs reusable filter on the aeropress. What's your take?

[@stevenswall]

2:40 Is this the same size as the aeropress go? I thought it was 2 oz bigger. They look so close in size in the video but I'm guessing the extra marking labeled 4 on the Plus means it's bigger.

[@amrith10]

If you put in the flow control cap, does it still pack in neatly? Thank you.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Unfortunately not! I did give them this feedback when I first saw the unit. Would love to see this in the future or even a modified version of the cap for this config. (Current one is about 1/8-1/4 inch too tall)

[@amrith10]

@@DaddyGotCoffee got it. Sort of a deal-breaker for some then. Thank you!

[@MarkEichin]

@@DaddyGotCoffee Yeah, my coffee kit is a repurposed craftsman tool bag, mostly because I include a collapsible silicone kettle (for US hotel-based road trips it's worth the trouble) and *also* a corresponding collection of tea and tea-brewing gear (for variety, and because one of my occasional travel companions prefers tea.) So I don't think I'd ever scale it quite that far down - and yeah, I definitely prefer a metal filter + flow valve - but a thermal mug that actually fits the whole thing is tempting, since most of the other stainless-steel vacuum-wall travel mugs are *just* small enough that the sides of the aeropress can't vent when you're pressing it down...

[@1Selous]

I got the Original ie Mk2 then a later verson, I picked up a Go 5 minutes and the filter holder fell apart, never used the holder after that. I got the XL for Xmas 23 from Mrs for iced brews. My all time favourite is the Standard AP. All 3 of my Original AP came with Tote bags I understood the APGoPlus has extra tabs as you mentioned, and the actual top of the AP. This all tells me it is a different AP with the gasket and the prongs.

[@wootenbasset8631]

4:54 I would have agreed back when I went from the regular size to the shorter AP Go. But now I have been using the XL for more coffee in the morning. How about an XL Go? Also, I would rather a tumbler that would do all of that with the Aeropress versions that already existed.

[@smaskell]

Does the flow control cap (and/or fellow prismo) fit inside the lid? The prismo fits just well enough inside the original go lid (red cap) that I just leave it on there, which is nice. I feel like it won't work with this one though.

Would a Knock Aergrind be able to store in the plunger of the go plus if I remove the scoop and stirrer?

[@NightFate]

​@@DaddyGotCoffeethe aergrind/aerspeed sticks out top of the plunger's hollow by about 3.5cm/1.5in so I think everybody asking mean "is there ~3.5cm of space in the bottom of the tumbler with aeropress seated in it?"

I'm a french press user who has never used an aeropress. One of the things I like about the french press is that there's very little plastic coming into contact with the hot water (just a part of the press, and that's only during the pressing part, not the steeping part). Do you know if aeropress makes or will make a borosilicate version of their product? Or if there's something very like that on the market? I've heard great things about the quality of a cup of aeropress coffee, but I'm wary of all that plastic. Thanks!

I have the Go and I like it, but the bigger size and cup included would be nicer to travel with other than a bit more weight. My one concern is, will the coffee be too hot to drink immediately after brewing into the stainless steel tumbler? Of course you could wait a few minutes with the top off to let it cool down, but who wants to wait to drink their coffee in the morning LOL! Still, looks pretty good and sometimes the tumbler would be handy and you don't always find a good cup in many hotels.

[@joemikeska2657]

I'm really torn. I was always a fan of the idea of the original Aeropress as a way to make coffee while backpacking. But, the original was a little large and heavy and didn't travel well. Then the Go came out and I got one almost immediately. It works great for camping EXCEPT the cup really isn't useful. I take my time when drinking coffee, and typically I camp in the winter, which means my coffee would either get cold or I would need an additional cup with a lid. Now comes the Go Plus. It checks a lot of boxes, but it's heavy. With the current 20% off promotion it's definitely appealing, but I don't know how much use I would get out of it. Does the extra weight make up for the need to no have a second ultralight cup? Time to do some weight tests.

[@cpolpa]

Hi , nice to meet you, i like the review, but my question is a little different, in the new videos of aeropress most of the people use the the pull in the normal position, but i Learn use it in the reverse process and leave the extra air away. For professional mode what your recommendation?

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

What you’re referring to is called “inverted method” it’s not oficially recommended because it’s a lot easier to spill and make a huge mess - BUT a lot of people do it and it does eliminate drip through which has a marginal impact on brew quality. I use the flow control cap/prismo because I’m lazy, it achieves the same thing and makes clean up a lot easier.

[@sunrainsky5617]

You can use a mesh filter (finer than a metal filter). I use the ultimate 13 micron mesh one from Cera. That way, you don't have to worry about dripping in the normal position. Also, the fine mesh prevents more sediments than a normal metal filter.

[@redchen3682]

You can buy a silicon boot for the base of the tumbler for more protection. But then again, it's something they should have included since it's very cheap.

I would LOVE a video talking through your travel coffee setup, as well as exploring other travel accessories and possible demands for coffee making (espresso, no kettle available at location, pour over instead of aeropress, etc.) I’ve been trying to build out a travel kit similar to the one you showed in the video for when I travel, but I’ve found most videos already on KZbin to miss the mark when it comes to assembling a kit capable of doing good beans justice, while still being a reasonable size and weight. I’ll also say, I vastly prefer the old Go’s design to the Go Plus. I would much rather drink out of a plastic cup than a metal tumbler, and the new design isn’t realistic for the demands of backpacking - polypropylene is much lighter and more impact resistant than stainless steel. But I’m happy that both exist concurrently.

My last hotel didn’t even have a microwave, so I had to use hot water from their pod coffee maker. I’m curious if you have any solutions I’m unaware of, or if the market really is just lacking a good portable kettle aimed at coffee usage.

I have tried running the water through twice, and the machine wouldn’t actually function a second time - either due to the water already being too hot, or the machine not being able to run the heating element again so quickly.

I like the concept of the added tumbler but also agree that the plastic bottom base is a major issue for me. I have both a Yeti and a Kleen Kanteen tumbler that get dropped frequently but are built solid and hold up well to the road rash and dings from frequent falls. I know that it would only be a matter of time before that plastic base gets damaged and the tumbler becomes useless to me.

Out of curiosiiy, what did you get? haha

[@NorthcoastPatty]

I do like that it comes in a black travel cup. I've never had a cup of coffee from an Aero Press. I do a pour over directly into my travel cup with winged filters. I like to make a 16oz coffee and add cream in a 20 oz cup. The reason I have never purchased an Aero Press is I need a bigger cup of coffee.

[@JacobDrJIsrael]

Need a gas burner and a small water pot ;) Nice kit. Thanks for the review. Exactly what I've been looking for!

[@bzboii]

og aeropress used to be 20 something dollars! and had tons of accessories and filters!

[@Sourpusscandy]

Honestly, the first AP I ever bought was for $7 new in the box at a thrift store. I was like what is this? Then whenever I find them for a good price I buy it. This full price business is craaazyyyy!

[@mgraham_Indiana]

I have the original and love it. Bought the Go, and love it. There are uses for both. But an $80 version, just dumb. It makes coffee and does so really well. Get the original and be done. Then enjoy.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Yup, absolutely nothing wrong with this!

[@inkscratch]

My first and only aeropress is still the original aeropress go and I love it. Once I saw this one though my first thought was "that needs a ceramic liner" lol

[@waspbr]

What? the cap is one of the best features of the Aeropress Go. It acts as a dosing tray if you squeeze two opposing corners. the cap itself is a great tray for weighing and the dispensing the coffee beans into a coffee grinder. My only gripe with the aeropress go is that it does not fit the Fellow Prismo particularly well. Well, it does when it hot, but even then it is snug and it is a nightmare to remove when it cools down.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Clearly I am missing the boat on the go cap 🤣☕️

[@daimlerli]

The red cap is great for weighing beans in. Its nice and wide so beans stay in, also can bend so easy to shoot the beans into my smallish 1zpresso Q2.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

You’re not the first person to mention the squeeze thing in the comments - no idea how I never thought of that!

[@ipedros7]

@@DaddyGotCoffee i sometimes just use my left hand around the x-pro top to funnel beans in. Works well.

[@KellanJames]

Me, "wait a minute, is that Tobermory?" 2 seconds later, "it is!!"

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Ha! IYKYK!

[@robojimtv]

Re: the private equity thing, there were a few changes that were clear money grabs IMO. The number of filters you got in the package was cut down. I remember you used to get 100 or even 200 in many cases. That and the price increase is meh. Some of the new ideas felt rushed or half baked but overall, i think them jumping onto the trend of "same product, multi colors" is ok since they also arent aggressively pushing fake "limited edition" colors for example (looking at Swatch)

[@robojimtv]

Also I have my trusty gold letter aero press still working though I had to finally replace the plunger on mine

[@AaronEMorales]

We had a lot of years of aeropress not releasing anything that may have pleased the hardcore fans. But releasing new products makes the whole thing more fun and keeps the company going, have at it I say.

[@khug]

This was a fantastic review and I think you're 💯spot-on wrt the OG negativity. Excited for my Go Plus to arrive 🙂 That photo looks like The Grotto (lived near there in the 90s) - beautiful spot!

[@Naylor_Element]

Would have been good to see a container for beans inside the centre of the press, or a compact grinder in that same space maybe🤷🏽‍♂️ Just feel that space is wasted by Aeropress, but will still likely buy one haha!

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

I hear you - but I also think they would have been accused of needlessly doing things to increase the price had they done this 🤣 I’ll often throw a couple doses in a ziploc bag and throw it in the middle. I’ve also heard the “knock” grinder fits in the middle and I believe also the timemore slim

[@BloxTube101]

My 1zpresso q2 heptagonal fits perfectly just the handle hangs out which can be folded😊

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

@@BloxTube101 this is great info, thank you for dropping it!

[@goemboeck]

I'm massively sceptic about Aeropress because of the microplastic fantastic. The new Premium non-plastic so I may finally give Aeropress a try.

[@1Selous]

I got a 2nd original AP, then a first Dark one, both used 1 while away serving the other at home as I got so used to useing it. Since then I got a further dark AP and this year my mrs got me the XL last year the Go but I got my set up diced in with a original AP I hardly use it. I have a fellow prizzmo I hardly use it but ok if ever needed. I like the new 'extra's' they are offering brings a wider market, unfortunately the price point is rising in UK its £50 for the new go + a AP is £35. The import tax is not making selling easy plus buying from USA we still pay the import.

[@Jevongen]

I would also rather drink from an open cup. I find you get a better flavour, maybe because you can smell the coffee better as well as taste it.

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Yup! Most of the time I have used this with the lid off!

[@atomazninja24]

Now I want a bottle that just holds my ordinal aeropress with filter storage on the bottom

[@DaddyGotCoffee]

Yup!
