Can you dispense the coffee directly into an Aeropress coffee maker?

Well yes, I can't see why you couldn't. If you unscrew the bottom container it would just fall out the bottom, directly over what ever you choose for it to fall into.

I have not tried this. It may be possible but you won't get the results you expect. When the carafe is used, the top lid of it presses against a lever on the bottom of the filter holder. This allows coffee to drip into the carafe as soon as it works its way through the ground coffee (this also allows you to remove the carafe to get coffee before the brew cycle completes). When using single cup mode, the coffee maker expects that a mug will be placed under the filter that won't press against this lever. The coffee maker can then control how long the water is in contact with the grounds and open the lever after a programmed 'steeping' time. You control the steeping time in single cup mode by choosing the 'Flavor' setting. Stronger flavor = longer steeping time. Others have stated that the hot plate comes on for 2 hours regardless of the brewing mode you choose.

Yes. You can see into the cup from the bottom of the cone while the coffee is pouring in through the filter. At least you can with the one I received.

That would depend on your coffee cup or mug. The machine does not store the coffee, it just brews it and dispenses it into whatever receptical you choose.

I don,t invert,but if you put all the coffee and water in then the plunger just started in you can invert. I use a glass measuring pitcher (2 cup) and treat it like a french press. I put it all in and stir for 10 sec. let it sit for a minute. Then pour into the aero press and press. You can also place all in aero press and insert plunger and let it sit on top of the cup. There will very little drip through due to the vacuum created by the weight of the coffee and water. I hope this helps. You can also treat it as you do the paper filters. It works about the same.

Not really. To get coffee out of an areopress you need to put a lot of pressure on it, the plastics will probably break if you use this.

Yes it is. I have been using the AeroPress for coffee every day since I purchased it last year, and I recommend it to my friends.

No. I just put the ground coffee in and tamp it down with my fingers. You can use tamper for a more elegant coffee making experience, but it is not needed. This makes excellent coffee by the way.

I don't believe so because most Aeropresses have dia. of 4.5 inches which is larger than the mouth of the Zojirushi!!Hope this helps. P.S. the travel mug is wonderful!

No. Maybe but boil the water separately. Don't put the immediate boiling water so as not to burn the coffee. Wait a few secs.

Yes you do. It is a removable basket that "holds" your filter. Without a filter you would have a very messy and chunky pot of coffee. I use the "Pure Brew" brand for a 4-cup coffee maker. They are very inexpensive at Walmart and work great!

Yes but manually. You can't put ground coffee in the hopper but for a single pot you can measure ground coffee into the filter basket then hit the "don't grind" button, fill with water and set the timer. The coffee will brew without grinding

Yes, this hole is common used. But, I'd rather recommend not to use for Aeropress. The structure is not good enough for high pressure when you use the below the fine ground coffee. Anyway, this coffee stand is very good looking products. :) Happy Brewing!!

No. The carafe's lid presses on the dispenser allowing the coffee to flow into it. I broke the fragile carafe in the first week and can't find a replacement that is identical. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I have not tried it that way. I've only used a regular coffee maker with mine. I guess experiment is next.

I trimmed down the AeroPress's black plastic cap "tabs" with a pen-knife to make a very tiny "ramp" and the press now works fine with either paper or metal filters. The ramp itself should be VERY small - I'm guessing that I only shaved down maybe a few 1/100ths of an inch deep, and only about 1/4 of the distance around each tab.

Why would you want to? Instant coffee doesn't get filtered it goes straight into the cup. You could just run the Keurig without putting in a pod for just hot water. That's how I make my hot cocoa.
