What customers say
The Fellow Prismo is celebrated for dramatically improving the Aeropress experience, primarily through its pressure actuated valve. This feature successfully stops dripping, eliminating the need for the inverted brewing method and enhancing user convenience. Users consistently report that the resulting coffee concentrate is richer and bolder, offering a superior, espresso-like cup with noticeable crema. The included reusable metal filter adds significant value. While cleaning the valve mechanism requires attention, the overall consensus is that the Prismo is an essential upgrade. It delivers substantial improvements in both brewing reliability and final beverage quality, making it highly recommended for dedicated Aeropress users seeking better results.
Know before you buy
Yes, the Prismo acts as a permanent, reusable replacement for paper filters. Its stainless steel mesh allows more natural oils to pass through into your cup, resulting in a fuller body and richer flavor profile.
The Prismo features a pressure-actuated valve that creates a tighter seal, allowing you to build up more pressure during the plunge. This enables you to brew espresso-style coffee or concentrate without needing the traditional 'inverted' method.
No, the Prismo is not dishwasher safe. It is best cleaned by rinsing it under warm water immediately after use to prevent coffee oils from clogging the fine mesh.
Absolutely. While it is designed to increase pressure for concentrated shots, it works perfectly for standard immersion recipes. Just be aware that because it is a metal filter, you may notice a small amount of fine sediment at the bottom of your cup.
The Prismo is compatible with all standard AeroPress coffee makers. It attaches directly to the bottom of the brewing chamber in place of the original plastic cap.
