Aeropress Travel Filter Holder

prusaprinters

<p>The Aeropress, while an excellent travel brewer, does not feature a way with which to carry filters. I designed a holder that is modeled after the original filter cap, to retain the iconic&nbsp;look. The holder is as compact as possible while also featuring a cutout that facilitates its use as a countertop filter holder, much in the same way as the original filter holder.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>The travel holder is tall enough to clear the plunger without touching it. It features a lip that can hold around 40 filters, but can fit more than 100 with the clearance that the filter cap provides.</p><p>It prints in two parts, without needing&nbsp;supports. You can fit the screen to the base and it will hold via friction fit or you can glue it in place.</p><p>I hope you find this useful! :)<br>&nbsp;</p><p><br>This print was first printed by a good friend on his Prusa Mini in PLA and it looked great. Due to PLA shrinkage and tight tolerances, the part fit the Aeropress, but very tightly, so I relaxed the tolerances and a print was attempted in PETG. The Mini had some issues with the&nbsp;PETG print that&nbsp;we assume are due to the&nbsp;design of the part cooling fan not reaching parts of the print.<br><br>The pictured&nbsp;part was kindly printed by another good friend of mine on his MK3S in Prusament PETG&nbsp;Pistachio Green using the default settings of the 0.10 DETAIL profile with ironing enabled.</p>
