I have a very fine stainless steel mesh strainer for my aeropress (replacing the little paper discs). Using it, I'm able to let the coffee steep for 45+ seconds, gaining the benefit of the inverted method without needing to mess around with inversion.

That said, I still prefer well-executed pourover (once I got the hang of my pourover method) to aeropress coffee but I think that's more of a personal preference thing. Nowadays I travel with the aeropress (and a nice travel grinder that fits inside) and do pourover at home.

Can I ask what grinder you're using that fits inside the aeropress? The ones I've seen are always these terribly boxy little devices.
I use a Porlex Mini for that. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044ZA066/r)
Awesome, thanks!
