Aeropress Coffee (inverted Method)
Goal; Make some strong, Delicious coffee
Gather Supplies
1. Aeropress Coffee maker (comes with; filters, scoop, filter basket)
2. Great coffee beans (sub in pre ground if you are not quite a coffee snob)
3. Coffee grinder (Porlex Mini Hand Coffee Grinder shown)
4. Fancy coffee mug
Grind Coffee, Dump In
I use one scoop, it is about 10g
grind it up
dump it in the Aeropress
Pour in Hot Water
Water temperature is a personal preference
I boil my water (about enough for a coffee), and let it sit while I grind beans (about 1min)
Pour in about half way.
Stir about 10-15sec
pour in all the way to the top stirring as you go (I usually rinse my scoop handle as I pour the last bit)
Filter Time
Take one filter, Place in basket, line up tabs and Carefully place on Aeropress(do not push down, it will make a mess if you do)
turn filter basket to lock in place (without pushing down)
Flip and Push
Now, in one motion place mug on Aeropress and flip the whole thing over and place on counter (mug bottom down)
slowly push down on the "plunger" until it bottoms out
Clean Up
pick up the Aeropress, put it over top of your disposal place of choice (great for compost)
unlock the filter basket
pull filter basket off
push plunger the rest of the way
coffee grinds and filter should exit Aeropress in a little puck
Clean Up
simply rinse the rubber end of the plunger (you can wash with soapy water if you like)
also rinse the filter basket
Easy eh?
ENJOY
Now technically this is Espresso.
you can make american coffee by watering it down (with hot water)
you could also ruin it by adding dairy and sugar, the choice is yours
hope you liked this and try it out
