become an Invert. Go inverted. Grind your beans fresh. Roast your own
beans…..all else is Aeroblasphemie.
Why is it so good ? compared to what ? does anyone know that the Turks
and Yemeni´s call it black coffee or (with kardemon and ginger) kaffee
laban …..grind coffee and put in mug and add hot water and leave the
coffee in….perfect !…..thought the thing would be at least made of
glass (but with thermoplasts ???) whtvr, if this makes u happy go gadget
go !…but there is a lot faster way to make just as good a coffee ….and
no matter what you do the best coffee (in my taste) is fresh roasted Green
fine grinded by hand or whatever and then “Turkish style”
Your review made me happy because you hit all the reasons I bought one of
these and will be receiving it tomorrow; viz., control of all the factor
levels in experimenting with different roasts. As you said, not that
French press is bad, but it’s different. I’m a retired chemist, and I
fully appreciate the differences the two techniques afford in experimental
manipulation.
My question to you is about surface area / particle size distribution of
the grounds. It needs to be coarse for the French press for obvious
reasons: But how fine can it be for this Aeropress plunger technique? I
realize we are talking an ultrafine paper filter (and the issue of
“absorption of oils on the paper” is BS, by the way), but should I use my
burr mill on its finest setting, or can I take my simple Krups blade mill
and crank that up to the max time? I’d prefer the latter, especially for
travel.
Anyway, great approach, well thought out and well presented in your video.
Most of the coffee already went through the filter before you used the air
press
This is the method I like to use to make my coffee. Love the simplicity
Just got one today, with plenty of great coffee to try with it! Can’t
wait…well I can wait but y’know…
Between 2:44 and 2:46, that slight glimpse on your face that says “WTF did
I just drink?” is making me crack the hell up.
Have you tried a s.s. filter?
It’s plastic? No thanks!
Pre wet the filter and you will not get the water to pass thru before it
has a chance to brew.. Watch as he poured in the water and water
immediately started passing thru….
Probably pretty darn good but would not call it quick or simple. 30
seconds, it took this video about 2 minutes. Filter, coffee, stir stick
thing, press the plunger, then clean up after the amazing coffee. Not
simple at all really but probably worth it.
192 degrees?
This guy has an Encore Burr Grinder.
Bunk. Use a filter and it takes the coffee oils out of the finished
product. I’ll stick with my French Press.
I got one the other week, I just like it for the fact it’s really fun to
use!
But you should try the inverted method as well, it’s 100% immersion of all
the water that way.
Is the espresso it makes legitimate espresso? I want to make cappuccinos at
home.
I would use the inversion method. No need to press the plunger all the way
down. Wait until you hear the air hiss out and stop and in that way the
plunger does not press the coffee. Also you do not need fine grounds for
the Aeropress and a longer immersion time would benefit the flavour. Saying
all that – this is the greatest coffee maker there is. PS the temp of the
water should be about 170 degrees F.
Great video, just started aeropressing and love it. Thanks for the tips!
For the perfect AeroPress formula – check this out – it compares so many
different ratios from baristas all over the world!

If you’re having opposite results of what everyone else is doing, suffice
to say that you MAY be doing something wrong.
A very nice, professionally done video review. I have never written a
review earlier but felt compelled to write about yours. Very high quality,
good lighting, perfect angle, good audio. Nice job. BTW, I am not sure
about your technique though. I had also check Mr. Gwilym Davies’s video and
think he has a better, gentler technique. Well, I have to experience it
myself so I will buy and try.
Stumptown shoutout!
You missed one vital step. You need to wet the filter before you use it.
I got one about a week ago! great stuff. What kinda beans are you using?
I’m experiencing with different roasts.
Is that an electric water kettle? If so, what brand is it?
Thanks 🙂
Alright so I got the AeroPress (love it), but where did you get that
serving tray?I like it’s sleek design 🙂
I find in filter coffee that Chemex is the very best. The taste of
Aeropress is too clean and dull. It’s great to take camping but not much
more.
The plastic is pthalate and BPA-free material, according to their website.
Paper filters will remove the substance that spikes blood pressure. French
presses don’t get rid of that chemical and you get lots of grit.
I really love my chemex (in fact, using that everyday right now). But I
switch off between aeropress and chemex all the time. Fun to mix it up. And
certainly don’t do much traveling with my chemex 🙂 Aeropress is excellent
for that.
@jackybaby72 Thanks! Here’s what I’m using: canon 7d, sigma 30mm lens with
an aperture of about 2.2, the lighting is just the hanging lights you see
there top-left plus some natural lighting coming through windows. With a
good camera, a lens with a 1.8-2.4 aperture, and 24 frames per second feel,
it’s pretty easy to get a good vibe on camera. Good luck!
Wish I remembered… my bad.
I adore my areopress. The coffee is consistently fantastic, it’s fast, and
there’s no clean up. I have to get up at 5:45am and out the door by 6:20 to
catch the bus, so having the ability to quickly make a serving or two of
coffee to wake me up while I am getting ready is absolutely critical. I
loved my french press, but this is just far better, I feel.
I still prefer the french press, being a student I can extract a good cup
of coffee from a relatively cheap pack of grounds. also I really don’t mind
making my coffee sit for 4 minutes.

I actually currently do. Been meaning to update this video. My current
method is: Invert the aeropress. put in 15g of coffee, medium grind. pour
in 200g of water at 205 degrees and start timer. stir immediately and place
top on aeropress. At 45 seconds flip aeropress over and press into cup.
Makes a sweet and juicy cup.
#1: I try to care less about rigid right & wrong answers about plastic and
paper and more about the cup, the flavor and the experience. #2: Paper
filters are effective at highlighting certain flavors by constricting some
of the oils and sediment left in the cup. #3: Able’s metal Disc filter for
the aeropress allows more oils and highlights other flavor notes in a
coffee. #4: Aeropress is another great tool we have to make great coffee
and no city can suck someone’s balls, right? 🙂
Thanks Tom for showing me this!
Is there a glass alternative out there? I hate the idea of using hot water
and plastic, and wouldn’t mind paying more for a healthier version of this
coffee maker. Thanks!
you’re dumb
@TheTarik00 Nearly all black tea, the most common type of tea in Britain,
absolutely requires completely boiling water to extract all of the flavor.
The tannin only come when the black tea is steeped for over around five
minutes, of the tea is squeezed. Green tea requires about a 150 – 175 deg C
water, depending on the quality of the tea. White tea require a long steep
time at about 140 – 150 deg C. Black tea does require boiling water. Know
your stuff before you attempt to criticize someone.
@jackybaby72 Also, you may like the videos I’m doing at @fatherapprentice,
a more subdued lighting.
Hard to find a good aeropress video to show friends. Thanks
Nice! thanks, man.
Bang for buck, the aeropress is hard to beat. It’s the only way I make
coffee at home.
I really appreciate the reply. Thanks.
I have tried all kinds of coffee, but my favorite is still diner coffee.
For some reason coffee at a diner taste better than coffee I get from
anywhere else, even at home.
That is one big kitchen
2:43 Every sinkin’ time. That’s a new one!
I especially like your term “Aeropresso” for the coffee concentrate, which
distinguishes it nicely from conventional espresso, and eliminates all
quibbling…
