22min of Hoff is a lot of Hoff!
Is there a TLDR? I’m going to guess something about the thermal properties he doesn’t like? This guy is obsessed with temperature.
Don’t get me wrong, there’s something to it for sure, but I think he overplays the thermal properties of things a bit.
The metal base (quite heavy) makes a squealing sound against the glass portion when installing it. Some (like Hoffman) find it unpleasant; others find that the tactile experience outweighs the auditory experience, as it is very solid
it has slightly different dimensions, which make the puck deeper
slightly higher extraction
in a 3 way test against XL and OG, he was able to identify the three brewers correctly and overall preferred the Premium, though that may just be a result of a careless brew
the amount of microplastics one will ingest from an Aeropress is probably not significant compared to other sources, and the Aeropress microplastics aren’t identified as immediately harmful (i.e. BPA free)
it’s kinda an expensive way to make the same coffee and trades a lot of the original Aeropress benefits (price, portability, durability) for a luxury feel. It’s glass; you won’t want to toss it in your bag like the OG.
Thx!! yeah I like glass stuff but aeropress is a nice travel brewer. Seems a shame to eliminate that feature. As for the plastic ingestion stuff. Probably good to cut down where you can with disposables etc but having worked in food service, man it’s unavoidable. The majority of food you buy or consume has already come into contact with plastic.
Can’t believe he didn’t give it a hard time for being a bigger heat-sink than the plastic one!
I forgot that part. He did a graph. After about 3 min the OG is colder than the new one. Not a major difference at start, 3°C but doesn’t seem to make enough difference in the brew.
I do recognize that my classic plastic Aeropress loses a lot of temperature in its brewing process, and that is what got me started on pre-warming my mug.
I don’t like a lukewarm cup of coffee. About 160F at serving time is good for me.

TLDR: A worse but more expensive product. Heavier and more fragile for more money.
Hmm let me try from memory:

James didn’t like the metal-on-glass grating sound when tightening the cap either.
He’s like r/coffee or r/espresso the person
