About the AeroPress XL

The AeroPress XL is the same AeroPress you already know, but thanks to a 600ml brewing capacity (you could stretch it a little further if you’re brave and/or adventurous enough to opt for the inverted brewing method) there’s just twice as much of it to love. It’s made of the same durable polypropylene as the standard AeroPress (though in a darker shade of grey), and comes with the same gadgets in the box: a stirrer and scoop. The increased size means that brewing straight into a cup or standard server is less of an option than before (you’ll need something with a suitably wide rim), but that’s not much of a problem given that, like the AeroPress Go, the XL comes with its own server. In the box you’ll find a hexagonal 600ml carafe, made of the same clear, shatterproof Tritan as the AeroPress Clear. This server also fits any other AeroPress model you may already have. It’s worth noting that other than in the carafe’s case, the XL doesn’t share much more cross compatibility with its smaller siblings. It requires bigger micro-filters (of which 100 come in the box), which also means it needs XL-ified accessories like metal filters and alternative filter caps. No doubt suitable accessories will become more prevalent on store shelves a little further down the line, so keep an eye out for those if you’re interested. With that said, the AeroPress XL still comes with everything you need to start making great coffee at home, in the office, or on the road, now in greater quantities.
