โ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

One of the big selling features of the original AP was its portability, i.e. you could throw it in your luggage, and durability.
The glass Premium cancelled those features and was panned for it.
I can imagine people using the inversion method, which would put the glass part teetering on top while full of hot water while brewing. That would easily tip over, shatter, and cause unhappy customers.
