The Fellow Aiden drip coffee maker has become a favorite of the WIRED Reviews staff, and it is currently available at a reduced price in Fellow’s Refurbished Gear section. The machine, together with other popular Fellow items, is being offered at more than 20 percent off.
Fans appreciate the Aiden for its clean, mid‑century modern aesthetic as well as its straightforward operation and excellent coffee results. While it is simple enough for beginners, it also provides a range of adjustments for enthusiasts, such as roast level, brew temperature, bloom time, and even compensation for local elevation.
For those who prefer a hands‑free experience, the LED menu includes an automated “Guided Brew” mode. Users select a brew size ranging from five to 50 ounces, insert a color‑coded basket that accepts standard paper filters, add the recommended amount of coffee, and the machine delivers a cup brewed at 200 °F.
The Aiden can also be paired with the Fellow mobile app, allowing users to fine‑tune their brew and save recipes for future use. This feature makes it easy to reproduce a particularly good cup on subsequent mornings.
In addition to hot coffee, the Aiden’s Japanese‑style slow‑drip technique creates a light, aromatic cold brew in roughly 90 minutes. The brew finishes at room temperature, so it can be prepared the night before and refrigerated, or left to brew a bit longer and served over ice.
All refurbished units sold through Fellow’s “Rebrew” program undergo thorough restoration at the company’s headquarters. The process includes deep cleaning, performance testing, and replacement of worn components. Each refurbished product also carries a one‑year limited warranty.

– Capacity: 50 ounces

– Weight: 9.6 lb

Other discounted refurbished items include two Fellow electric kettles. The Fellow Corvo EKG Pro, priced at $144 after a 20 percent discount, offers precise temperature control and a long hold time ideal for delicate teas. The Fellow Stagg EKG Pro, also reduced to $144, is a gooseneck kettle favored by pour‑over enthusiasts for its smooth pour.
