DOUBLE THE CAPACITY
The iconic AeroPress, now with double the capacity. The AeroPress XL comes with a 20oz (591ml) carafe made of crystal-clear shatterproof Tritan™.
Patented 3-in-1 brew technology combines the best of several brew methods into one easy to use, very portable device. No more average joe from fancy, expensive machines. Smooth, rich, grit-free coffee with a delicious, full-bodied finish that lingers well after your last sip.
The AeroPress XL is an exceptionally forgiving and consistent way of making great coffee and is particularly useful for travelling and/or workplace java breaks. It is effectively a big BPA-free plastic syringe with a filter at the end instead of a needle and it makes around 500ml (16oz) of coffee per serving. You can also make a stronger coffee solution and dilute if you so desire but, whichever way you choose, it takes less than a couple of minutes to make a delicious cup of coffee and is really easy to clean.
The AeroPress XL comes bundled with everything that you need to get started:
- AeroPress XL Chamber, Plunger, Filter Cap & Seal: For brewing the most delicious coffee ever!
- AeroPress Carafe: Crystal clear, shatterproof, lightweight, and made with Tritan™.
- Paper Micro-Filters: Includes 100 replacement AeroPress XL paper micro-filters. Micro-filters remove grit from your coffee, unlike other press-type coffee makers.
- Stirrer: Designed to be the perfect length for the AeroPress XL.
- Scoop: Scoop measures just the right amount of coffee for delicious, easy AeroPress recipes.
Please Note: Neither The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap nor the FELLOW Prismo are compatible with the AeroPress XL

So how do you use it? Simple. Firstly, open the box, remove the instructions and throw them away. Then...
- Put your freshly ground and weighed out coffee into the inverted (with the filter end pointing upwards) AeroPress XL. As a guide, start with 30-32g for 500ml of water and adjust to taste.
- Put the filter into the filter holder and wash through with hot water to get rid of any nasty paper taste
- Pour just off-the-boil water over the coffee, filling the AeroPress XL nearly to the top
- Stir a prescribed amount of times (we use three) and top off with water
- Attach the filter holder and secure (before the end of the brew time)
- Leave to brew for your preferred brew strength (our preference is about a minute from when the water makes contact)
- Turn over onto the top of your favourite sturdy mug and push down the plunge until the AeroPress is empty, and you hear a slight hissing sound.
Please note the "inverted method" can cause the coffee maker to be less stable and prone to mishaps that expose the user to potential burns from hot liquid. Please exercise caution when using the inverted method because it is less stable and therefore prone to tipping over and exposing the user to hot liquid.

So how do you clean it? You can clean the AeroPress in the top rack of the dishwasher. However, a simple rinse is sufficient because the plunger wipes the chamber. If your chamber ever gets sticky, wash it with vinegar, occasionally removing the seal from the end of the plunger for a good washing inside and out with warm water and dish soap.
