New to the Aeropress and had no clue about the inverted method. This was not explained in the Aeropress instructions. The metal filter now makes sense. Thank you.
I have the same metal filter, and after trying both the paper and the metal many times I prefer the paper one. There's something about it, the purity and the refinement of coffee with a paper filter is amazing. The taste of coffee with a metal filter is a bit "rough around the edges" when compared to the paper one, at least in my experience.
Yes we would agree, it’s the coffee oils and a little fine grind getting into the cup giving more body with the metal. If it’s a nice single use the paper for a crisp clean taste.🤙🏻
I like the oils too and am of the belief that a lot of oils are very healthy for us, however, I have heard that 2 oils the AeroPress filters manage to stop getting into your cup are known carcinogens or at least research being done on that... Would be nice to know more Also, I've heard the cloth filters or CoffeeSocks are a best-of-both-worlds product, eliminating fines in the cup but also allowing the oils through as well!
Sure, we like the able disk as it’s one flat surface, and won’t deteriorate, the gauze types that have the outer ss rim can seperate and also are a bit more coarse then we like
Can you explain how you would make more than one coffee at a time? You mentioned it in the context of camping (this is how I mostly use my aeropress) but I couldn’t work out how you would do it. Thx!
I have not tested the metal filter with my AeroPress. But have with my drip thru and it changes the taste a lot. Also, I have experimented with wetting the AeroPress filter versus not. And can tell no difference. A box of filters lasts me almost a year. And usually always order in advance. I see this as a non-issue for a smoother better cup of coffee.
What is your view on putting an aeropress paper ontop of your portafilter at home for espresso. I have been doing it for a while now and like the results with the coffee and also the fact there is no grounds making their way back up into the E61 on my machine, which I should think less need to clean with detergents
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters There were studies in Sweden or the Netherlands that have said that the oils in the coffee can be bad for people with heart issues. But if you eat a balanced diet and stay active, it's not a huge deal.
Looks like I've been doing it wrong. I wet the paper. Screw it on the bottom. Put over cup. Add the ground. Pour water in tube. Give it a few stirs. Put plunger in and press down. Your video is to far away. Looks like you had plunger already in. Add coffee and water. Put filter in. Invert onto cup. Naw. I like my way.
