That's interesting that the aeropress (which I've never tried) is optimal at such a low temperature. Convention says that 195-200 degrees is best for brewing coffee.
My favorite way to make coffee is with a syphon pot. It is a bit more involved than the aeropress but it makes the cleanest cup that you'll ever taste.
Maybe I'll pick up an aeropress as, Iike you, I've switched to drinking tea more during the day. I've heard good things about it elsewhere.
