New Hoffman video dropped. Not sure if we have any 3rd wave coffee lovers in this community. I've been an avid AeroPress user for about two years now and it will be interesting to see where the company goes, though it will likely not affect me as this thing feels nigh indestructible and I can likely use it for ten years with no issues.

In the video he showed a bottom valve (for lack of a better term) from Fellow. That seemed interesting to me as my main problem with the Aeropress has historically been that all the water leaks out as I’m brewing and there isn’t enough time for infusion. Does anybody have any experience with that? It’s only $25 so I might buy it just to see for myself.

Have you tried the inverted method to brew?

Yeah but I’m always worried I’m gonna spill coffee everywhere. I will say it works well when I’ve done it, it’s just nerve wracking. The Aeropress isn’t my daily driver so I don’t get a ton of practice.

I do the inverted method a lot and after the first few tries I haven’t had a spillage at all. Big thing to be careful of is make sure the plunger isn’t too close to coming out of the press.
