• Description : Aeropress is a method in which water is forced through the coffee with hand pressure. Let's talk about this in more detail.

Overview

• The main feature of the Aeropress is that when brewing, water passes through the coffee under slight pressure, which is created by pressing the piston with your hand. Thanks to the paper filter, the drink is clean and transparent, and thanks to pressure, it is denser than drip brewing methods. There are two ways to brew coffee in an Aeropress: straight and upside down. But in our guide, we will analyze only the direct method.

   
  Before preparing coffee, we recommend that you learn about the main factors that affect the taste of coffee, regardless of the method of preparation.
   
  What you need
  Necessarily:
   
  1. Coffee beans or ground.
   
  2. Aeropress.
   
  3. Paper filters.
   
  4. Hot water.
   
  Desirable:
   
  1. Scales.
   
  2. Coffee grinder.
   
  3. Timer.
   
  The grind for Aeropress needs a little finer than average - it looks like it should be between grinds for espresso and pour over. However, the Aeropress allows you to experiment with grinding more than other methods, so depending on the result, you can adjust it, thus changing the taste.
   
  The optimal dosage of coffee is 18 g. You can experiment, try different options and focus on taste.
   
  The optimum temperature for making coffee in an Aeropress is 90°C. To do this, you can bring water to a boil, and then let it cool for one to two minutes. It should be noted here that Alan Adler, the inventor of the Aeropress, recommends using water at 80°C. But in most cases, a temperature of 90 ° C is still used.
