That’s actually the only Aeropress I own so I’m not sure if the original one is actually less portable, but I like how compact the whole thing can get, which is ideal in common areas where you do not want to take up too much space

The reverse method is still a little too messy, especially if you need to do it outside home, so I guess I’ll stick with the normal method.

It’s still pretty simple and easy to do, and if finally saved me by local Italian over-roasted espressos 🙏

I take an original to work with a KINGrinder P2 nested inside it... it would be difficult to get a more compact combo of coffee maker AND grinder.

My technique is roughly what James Hoffmann outlined on his channel - standard orientation, but slipping the plunger in to hold the coffee up via vacuum.

It's a little fiddly on the job, but it's worth it when I taste that delicious brew.
