what makes it unique?

The facts outlets repeat and where the money goes.

THE JARGON, EXPLAINED

Borosilicate glass: A tougher glass. It won't easily crack when temperature changes fast, and it scratches less than regular glass.— Aeropress
3 in 1 brew method: AeroPress's brewing method. It speeds up extraction for less bitterness and a smoother, fuller cup.— Aeropress
Double-wall glass: Two layers of borosilicate glass. AeroPress says it keeps your coffee hotter for longer.— Instagram

NERD OUT FACTS

FACT 01
Nearly three years in the making
AeroPress says the Premium took nearly three years to develop, mainly to bring in new materials for the iconic press.
PR Newswire
FACT 02
Glass that handles heat shocks
The borosilicate glass won't easily crack under sudden temperature changes. It also resists scratches better than regular glass.
AeroPress
FACT 03
Real walnut, not a print
The Walnut version uses solid, clear-grade walnut with a food-safe sealant, not a printed wood effect.
The Gadgeteer
FACT 04
The maker says: skip it for travel
AeroPress says the Premium performs like its other makers, but it does not recommend it for travel. Glass needs extra care.

THE ONE DIFFERENCE THAT MATTERS

Extra money buys looks and no plastic, not a better cup

You want glass and no plastic

It doesn't improve brewing performance, but it adds aesthetic value to your kitchen.

— Baristamagazine

You just want good coffee

One owner says to buy an Original AeroPress and focus on coffee, not on device issues.
