Dd, I have two mug recommendations. First, stoneware like Some of us discussed earlier in this thread; you can order those from the link I posted. These are heavy but fairly thin.
Second, a local place called dogwood where I live makes a great mug. Super thick and heavy. PM me if interested in that and I can send you one, they are $10.
Hi mate,
Would it be possible to take you up on this?
Found a perfect mug in an American diner place here in london… but short of stealing it, I can't find one over here!
PM me your address!

Took the Chemex home. The Hario setup works a little better at work IMO.

It seems the water is going through the grinds quite quickly for me still. After stirring for 10 to 15 seconds half the water had already fallen and when I insert plunger and press down the cylinder is mostly air.
I had a slightly more coarse grind yesterday so I went finer today. It's taking me several minutes to grind 24g of beans with hario mini mill. Help!

I've picked up 5 bags of beans with various roast age to hold me over this christmas break. Consider this your general reminders to pick up beans from now until NY, most roasteries are closed from tomorrow.
A fine-ish grind is what you're after for the Aero. It takes me about 2 minutes to grind 32-34gms on the Hario Skerton. Different beans take different lengths of time, based on the size and strength of the bean itself.

Agreed I have three of those, superb.

Don't bother with inversion to begin with, it's overly fancy and doesn't make a huge difference. Make it as it says on the box and you can't go wrong. Add some good/fresh single origin beans roasted for filter, ground for aeropress (larger than espresso), and you're on your way. Great christmas present - lucky you!
