A crystal-clear, extra-large brewer

The renowned AeroPress, a manual brewing system that quickly brews bold coffee, has launched an even bigger, sleeker, and clearer model. The AeroPress Clear XL is the latest evolution of its popular AeroPress Clear, which now features a 20-ounce capacity. After the launch of the AeroPress Clear, fans of this brewing system requested a larger version for bigger brews. The new AeroPress Clear XL expands on the convenience and innovation of the original model, offering a larger size without compromising the brew’s taste. The precise, see-through nature of this design is excellent for watching the brewing process from start to finish (an aesthetically pleasing feature I can surely appreciate)

Made in the USA, the AeroPress Clear XL offers a simple yet effective brewing process for home and cafe use. It uses the brand’s revolutionary 3-in-1 brewing technology to ensure the signature smooth, full-bodied, grit-free coffee that AeroPress is known for. You can even travel with this brewer, ensuring you have access to a quality cup of coffee anywhere. Like the other AeroPress Clear sizes, the XL is shatterproof and dishwasher-safe for easy, efficient cleaning and use. The AeroPress Clear XL retails for $89.95 and is available now for purchase (or to gift to the coffee lover in your life).

“Our AeroPress Clear XL is a game-changer for cafés and coffee enthusiasts. While home brewers have long beloved AeroPress, café owners now have what they’ve been asking for – the perfect tool to expand their coffee shop menu through the unique and world-renowned taste of an AeroPress brew,” comments David Cole, AeroPress CMO. “With its larger capacity and clear design, cafés can now offer an engaging, table-side tasting experience where guests can watch the entire process unfold and enjoy the incredibly smooth, full-bodied flavor of AeroPress.”

Banana bread cold brew is here— but are we ready for it?
Dessert for breakfast
Wandering Bear Banana Bread Cold Brew

As a coffee writer and java junkie, I like to think I'm pretty in touch with recent coffee trends. Yet, the concept of banana bread cold brew initially perplexed me. I first saw this announcement on an Instagram Ad (yes, the algorithm seems to have effectively targeted the right audience) by Wandering Bear Coffee. If you had asked me to think of 15 different flavor pairings that would work well with cold brew coffee, there's a 100% chance Banana would not have made the list. Yet, the more I thought about it, the banana bread cold brew flavor pairing didn't seem so far-fetched. After all, the concept of dessert for breakfast is already widely accepted.

Wandeirng Bear Coffee describes the newest Banana Bread Cold Brew as "Coffee-forward, balanced, with a note of warm banana and a hint of chocolate." Though I was skeptical at first, the more I think about it, the more excited I am to try this flavor.

What to do about those dreaded caffeine headaches
Man with headache

It's not uncommon for me to consume more coffee than water in a day (not necessarily something to be proud of). As a caffeine addict, I know the feeling of a caffeine headache all too well. You can never see it coming, yet when it hits, you know exactly what it is from. Ironically, caffeine headaches can occur from drinking too much caffeine or not drinking enough caffeine (withdrawal).

But what causes these pesky caffeine headaches, and can they be avoided? Dr. Joseph Mercola, board-certified family physician and author of Your Guide to Cellular Health, shares the science behind caffeine headaches and how to combat them.
