see your point, but how many coffees does it make in one go?
or can you get a few cups out of it.
Isn't an Americano just a regular coffee? forgive my ignorance I'm not a big coffee drinker but I have had an Americano and filter coffee and they taste the same to me,lol
An Americano is just when you add a concentrated 'shot' of coffee (espresso) to water, or vice versa. It makes four espressos in one batch, but you can put through batches back to back if you want by boiling a whole kettle and plunging it straight back through fresh coffee (once you've removed the puck from the previous batch).
But basically four mug-sized Americanos can be made in one batch by adding more hot water to the output.
Filter and Americano coffee certainly tastes different to most mouths; it's a matter of preference and if you can't tell the difference or aren't bothered, then I'd still go for an AeroPress as it's quicker than filter coffee. But this makes very pure smooth coffee, much better to my tastes than a cheap filter coffee.
It's also quite fun experimenting with the various AeroPress 'recipes'. Being a manual process you can change loads of things about the method, whereas with a filter machine, you press the button and wait for the green light. Which is great, don't get me wrong, as it's fire and forget and it keeps the coffee warm on a hot plate. Great for a lazy Sunday morning when you have family or friends round and want coffee constantly available and hot.
Although I did add on extras which were about a grand :/ Hugger, Restrictor kit(£300 -.-) Alarm (also £300) tank pad, fender extender. 
What's with the hands?
