Research-based recommendations. Our approach.
Give the parts a place
Before making your morning coffee, clear a little space for the brewer, its filter, ground coffee, and a suitable mug. Keep a place free to set down the hot kettle. The idea is simple: have the pieces within reach before you start.
The scene pairs an AeroPress with a HARIO Buono kettle. If your current brewer and kettle already suit your routine, start with those.
A press for the coffee, a kettle for the water
Consider the AeroPress Original if you want to make coffee by hand and press it into your mug. Its chamber, plunger, and filter cap each have a job. Gather the correct filters and read the instructions for your model before assembling it.
The Buono is an option for pouring the hot water. HARIO describes its slim spout as helping control the flow. A new kettle is optional; check the capacity and heating instructions of the version you choose. We have not identified the capacity of the kettle in this photo.
Check the setup before adding water
Use a sturdy mug or carafe that fits your AeroPress securely. AeroPress advises against pressing into thin-walled glass. The mug in this styled scene is illustrative; we have not checked its fit.
Follow the current AeroPress instructions linked below for assembly, coffee and water amounts, temperature, and pressing. Choose the instructions for your model. The separate parts in the photo show preparation before assembly, not a brewing position.
What the photo and links show
The AeroPress parts come from a photo of a 2019 Version 8. The Amazon button opens the current gray 10 oz Original. Its appearance and included accessories can differ from the pictured version. The AeroPress manufacturer link has the current instructions.
The Buono Amazon link is a paid product-family search, with multiple sizes and possibly unrelated results. Check the item you select. This editorial setup is based on sources checked November 4, 2026 (Japan time). We have not used these products or tested them together.

Changes: only the AeroPress chamber and plunger were selected from the source photo. Both product photos were cropped, cut out with hand-drawn masks, resized proportionally, and repositioned. Soft contact shadows were added on separate layers, and the photos were combined with an AI-generated counter, mug, and linen background. Text was added to the social versions.
