Here's my recipe for consistently great Aeropress coffee.
- Grind two level Aeropress scoops (about 30g) of your favorite coffee to a fine grind. I grind 15 seconds in my Krups grinder. It's cheap, but it works.
- Pour the grounds into an inverted Aeropress. Don't know what that upside-down business is all about? Read about it here.
- Heat water to 185-190 degrees Fahrenheit. I measure the temperature of the water with an IR laser-guided thermometer, because it makes me feel like I'm in the future.
- Pour the hot water over the grounds. Stir for 10-15 revolutions, or about 5-7 seconds.
- Cover the Aeropress with the filter. Set your timer for 90 seconds. Wait patiently.
- When the timer is finished, flip the Aeropress over a mug, and press. I press for about 8-10 seconds all the way down.
- Top off 1:1 with hot water, clean up, and enjoy!
Is this the only recipe? Of course not. Feel free to share your own in the comments section.
