Product Description
Made for AeroPress, Made for Excellent Coffee
When we first used the AeroPress we ran into the same problem as you – paper filters. While we saw the potential of the AeroPress, common paper filters were not only wasteful, but also undermined the coffee taste. Good thing that we came up with our own, reusable filter for the AeroPress.
So, why do we think the AeroPress coffee maker and our metal filters make an excellent combination? It's simple: it tastes great and lasts for years.
Metal Filters Means Better Coffee
Our 3-Piece set includes a Mesh, a Fine, and an Ultra-Fine permanent filter for the AeroPress which allows you to minimize waste, and achieve impeccable coffee.
No more wasteful paper filters or coffee that never really hits the spot. If you invest in a good roast, our accessories help you fine tune your coffee to taste, without absorbing essential oils that make up the body of your variety’s flavor.
Simply put, you make great coffee a part of your daily ritual - without fail.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
First, a word about how I make coffee and why, which has a relevance to the first point of differentiation, coffee sludge at the bottom of the mug. I heard the inventor of the Aero Press give a talk about making coffee. Basically, as long as you have clean equipment and water, the next most crucial thing is the temperature of the water. He said above 175F, more of the bitter oils are released from the grind making a more bitter morning brew. Keeping the water between 165-175 makes wonderful coffee overtime, but needs to be microwaved to bring it back to a nice hot drinking temperature. This is why I press into a ceramic mug to microwave, then transfer to a stainless steel travel mug, leaving the sludge behind. So for me the sludge isn't really an issue. For those where it is, the Slimm filter lets through 1/3 to 1/2 the sludge that the Coffee Nebula filter does. All reusable filters let some through compared to paper, but the Slimm is pretty close to paper.
Cleanup. They both only take a few seconds to clean, rinsing them under the faucet. But since the Coffee Nebula is smooth, it is slightly easier. But it takes more effort to scrape the grounds of filter of both. So, not a big difference between them, a non-issue.
Construction: The Coffee Nebula is constructed of a single piece of stainless steel with holes drilled into it. The thing is virtually indestructible. The Slimm Filter appears to be well made. The rim is about the same thickness as the Nebula. It is constructed of two pieces of stainless steel with the ultra fine wire mesh spot welded between them. This may seem weaker, but since it's lying flat on the plastic mesh bottom of the Aero Press, unless you have grinds or something else under the filter, it should be fine.
Seepage rate. The Slimm filter rate is almost the same as paper. So if you have your grind size calibrated for the desired amount of steeping with paper, this is a direct replacement without adjusting your grind. The Coffee Nebula on the other hand has lets the water through at 1/3-1/4 the rate and will require more pressing. I usually calibrate the grind so that I just let the water slowly seep through while I'm making breakfast so I just have to press the last 10-20%. With the Nebula, I'll have to go to a finer grind which will also let more sludge through. On the other hand, my coffee is a little stronger without using more grounds.
Leakage. In a lot of the reviews people complain about leakage, even with the paper. I have never had any leakage period, with either filter or with paper. I suspect they have a defect in the mating surfaces of their Aero Press, it's dirty or they are not screwing on the bottom of the press hard enough. It should not be leaking.
Final note, both filters are great, hopefully now you have enough information to decide which is right for you.
I like to use a vegetable brush (round one) to clean the filter between uses. Just add a drop of soap to the brush, put the filter in your off-hand and scrub both sides. Rinse and then dry.
I have not noticed any difference in taste between these filters and the paper filters except that with these filters you get the yummy coffee oils. If you are brewing your coffee too hot you may be creating an acidic brew that may leech some taste from the filter. If you don't actually ENJOY acidic coffee, it is easy to fix by getting a kettle you can set the water temperature and brewing it to the correct temp for the roast:
175 degrees of water for dark roast
185 degrees of water for medium roast
195 degrees for light or blonde roast
