โ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Those plastics don't only get inside you, but also into water sources. We can't estimate the impact exactly, and most probably your Aeropress contributes insignificantly.
Still, if you have money, there are worse ways to spend it than upgrading your plastic appliances. If you don't want to, no shame in continuing using things you got used to. But I invite you to keep in mind that consumers' habits might contribute to global issues.
As for me, I use a $1 cheap Cezve from Caucasus, and it just works. No need for filters, too.
