True, patience pays off with traditional methods! However, the AeroPress Clear Colors excels in convenience without compromising on flavor, making it a great choice for busy mornings or travel. ✨
I was in the coffee business for many years. I sold a ton of these because it does brew a great cup The trick is make sure the grind is as the video says. If you don't, you'll feel the Aeropress isn't brewing a great cup. It is so small that you can carry it anywhere. It make a great present for those coffee lovers. P.S, I met the inventor at a coffee festival and was impressed with the owner.
Absolutely! The grind size is crucial for a perfect cup with the AeroPress. It's great for travel and makes an excellent gift for coffee aficionados. I'm glad you enjoyed meeting our inventor; he's truly passionate about his creation.
By the time I stir and put the plunger on, half of the water has already dripped through. How do you still have most of the water in the chamber during this step?
Hi! AeroPress offers a fresher, more flavorful cup by allowing you to brew with fresh, whole beans and control variables like water temperature and grind size, resulting in a richer taste compared to instant coffee. It also reduces waste with reusable filters and compostable grounds.
This isn't honors chemistry class. Throw in two scoops of beans, grind a hair larger than espresso, chuck that boiling water in, by-pass with some of the boiling water, and guess what? It tastes EXACTLY THE SAME!
We appreciate your feedback! While coffee brewing can be simple, many coffee enthusiasts enjoy experimenting with different techniques to bring out unique flavors and strengths in their brews. If simplicity works best for you, that's great too!
What I like about the Aeropress, compared to my regular coffee machine, is that I can control and experiment with both the brewing time _and_ the water temperature. Using a thermometer, I can add the hot water at whatever temperature I desire. I can also brew the coffee for as long or a short of a period of time as desired. My coffee machine does not offer either of these two options. (I'm sure many machines do... but mine does not.)
That's one of the best things about the AeroPress! You have complete control over water temperature and brewing time, allowing for a truly customized coffee experience that many standard machines may not offer. Enjoy exploring different temperatures and brew times!
For the AeroPress, aim for a grind similar to table salt consistency-it should feel slightly finer than what you'd use for a drip coffee maker. Adjust until it feels right!
this looks like an improvement on the existing Go design. But... there's no way that the amount of coffee shown at 2:58 came out of this one press. I assume it was multiple presses, or else bypass brewing.
As something that would be carried in bags while traveling, this is key for me. I would probably seal the slider and use it exclusively as a screw-on screw-off. Plus, as someone who savours smelling and tasting their coffee, I avoid using those small sipping holes when possible.
I accidentially made this recipe months ago and found it was my favorite, even if it isnt as strong as i like. Thank you Mr. Alan, you have good taste and a brilliant mind.
So they’ve completely forgotten the original inventor’s method of brewing, and essentially copied James Hoffman’s. Seems like following what everyone else is doing rather than being unique at the cost of pleasing everyone. This is the difference between board room creation and individual ingenuity.
Interesting. I do the small amount to the #2 like inventor does, then add water (AeroAmericano I call it). There was no waiting if I recall. He just wanted a single cup that wasn’t bitter. Everyone has their own idea of how the like their coffee, and I believe the AeroPress lets them find their own way. AeroPress = Coffee Freedom!
Didn't the original inventor say the best thing about the aeropress is that people can use it however they wanted to suit their own preference? Or did you forget that just to have a mindless rant about "mega corps"
I just bought your original Go yesterday 😭I like the storage of this one more but a ceramic cup would have been a better option in this new version, metal ruins the flavour and keeps it too hot. Since you're drinking the coffee after making it, doesn't make much sense to me.
I also bought the Go a couple of days ago, but I too don't really need the thermos and like the orginal Go's smaller size, which is more important to me than the thermos and new features. So gladly I'm not mad at my purchase. Just the stirrer of the Go Plus seems a little better to me, as well as the way the filter papers are stored. The little plastic thingy for the filters in the original Go doesn't feel very premium..
Is the lid leak proof? I wanna be able to throw my coffee tumbler in a bag. Should be a given… Also: I‘ll never wait a minute for my AeroPress coffee to be great. :) Rather going with the inventor‘s recipe. A spoon of coffee, hot water, steering for 10 seconds, pressing through, adding some more water. Happy with this for many years.
I did this for years but I recently started waiting 2 minutes based on another video on this channel. The coffee tastes totally different and much better in my opinion. Try it and see what you think.
@@gabrielsroka Will try, but being able to make great coffee in a short amount of time is one of the reasons I love AP so much. 1-minute steering for great cold brew coffee included. So, waiting 2 minutes for my daily coffee sounds like forever :D
Try different recipes, there are more than 200 around. Like at the World Aeropress Chamnpionships recipes with brew times up to 5 min yield awesome coffees.
@@GabrielGGabGattringer Don‘t worry, I‘ve been trying for years, but I drink coffee for drinking coffee, not for making it a passionate lab center of my life. Recipes are not as important as which beans to use, or which grind setting. This stuff changes any recipe outcome immediately and immensely more. So, while others might love measuring everything to perfection, I‘m just happy about a consistently great coffee that I have ready in no time and with minimal effort. I love buying different beans, that‘s where my joy for experimentation ends.
The Go Plus, I see is not fully close-able with the flow control cap - your own product. Perhaps an oversight? or is there a revised edition coming up? Thank you.
I've actually tried this. It's amazing how fast you can get a well extracted cold brew, you can also leave it in the fridge overnight too and get awesome results as well.
