The renowned AeroPress, a manual brewing system that quickly brews bold coffee, has launched an even bigger, sleeker, and clearer model. The AeroPress Clear XL is the latest evolution of its popular AeroPress Clear, which now features a 20-ounce capacity. After the launch of the AeroPress Clear, fans of this brewing system requested a larger version for bigger brews. The new AeroPress Clear XL expands on the convenience and innovation of the original model, offering a larger size without compromising the brew’s taste. The precise, see-through nature of this design is excellent for watching the brewing process from start to finish (an aesthetically pleasing feature I can surely appreciate)

Made in the USA, the AeroPress Clear XL offers a simple yet effective brewing process for home and cafe use. It uses the brand’s revolutionary 3-in-1 brewing technology to ensure the signature smooth, full-bodied, grit-free coffee that AeroPress is known for. You can even travel with this brewer, ensuring you have access to a quality cup of coffee anywhere. Like the other AeroPress Clear sizes, the XL is shatterproof and dishwasher-safe for easy, efficient cleaning and use. The AeroPress Clear XL retails for $89.95 and is available now for purchase (or to gift to the coffee lover in your life).

You can never see it coming, yet when it hits, you know exactly what it is from. Ironically, caffeine headaches can occur from drinking too much caffeine or not drinking enough caffeine (withdrawal).

A French press coffee maker is great for brewing a full-bodied, hot cup of coffee. But did you know you could also make French press cold brew? I recently learned how to do so, and it's a game changer. If you love cold brew and have a French press coffee maker, you already have what you need to make smooth, bold cold brew coffee at home. Here's everything you need to know about using your French press coffee maker to make cold brew.
Can you use a French press to make cold brew?

I love finding a new purpose for household items we thought only had one purpose. The design of a French press is perfect for steeping cold brew, creating the ideal smooth and low-acidity cold coffee. I love making cold brew at home this way because it gives you more control over how strong you can make it (and gives you the option of making half caff or decaf cold brew, if you desire). You also control how long you leave your coffee to steep (16 to 20 hours is generally the sweet spot for great-tasting cold brew).
