Never heard of xBloom before, so had to look it up. As a highly satisfied AeroPress user for over a decade, AeroPress seems much more environmentally responsible, much cheaper to use, and more customizable than xBloom, while being portable and having a far lower barrier to entry.

I love AeroPress for sure. it's extremely popular for a reason! I have a Fellow French press that I use and take with me xBloom is super environmentally friendly though. No metal or plastic pods. You only have an easily compostable coffee filter. Which, FWIW, I toss in my Lomi and it gets used in the garden each spring!

Pods, even if they're entirely compostable, incur extra handling costs (monetary and environmental). Maybe not the cheapest vendor but, on Amazon, pods are shipped in quantities of 8, which would last me only 4 days and cost ~$2 each while containing only 16g or less of coffee.  If supplying one's own coffee, xBloom filters seem to cost about $0.10 each. In contrast, AeroPress filters are about $0.02 each. My typical dose with AeroPress is 18g and costs well under a dollar before discounts for Peet's.

Maybe the processor/RAM won't overheat as much, too. I'm rather tired of this happening especially when shooting video.

Just philosophical differences
