Review) | The Fellow Prismo can supposedly improve the quality of your espresso, it's a little add-on for your current Aeropress set up. Our editors cross-reference every claim, statistic, and piece of data with multiple sources to verify its accuracy.

He takes his years of knowledge and expertise and applies it to critiquing coffee equipment and brewing gear. Since then, coffee has taken me on countless adventures: From ancient coffee ceremonies in Ethiopia to the volcanos of Sumatra.
Being that the AeroPress already does a fantastic job at creating some amazing espresso-like coffee, I questioned whether the Fellow Prismo attachment could bring it even closer to matching the flavor of a traditional espresso machine. Since I usually go for a regular cup of coffee, I fill my mug the rest of the way with hot water to suit my tastes.
Espresso is coffee brewed by forcing out a small amount of near boiling water under pressure through finely ground coffee beans.
