AeroPress is perfect for a great cup of coffee that’s prepared relatively quickly and leaves little mess to clean up after. It’s not ideal for groups or marathon caffeinating sessions (it only makes a cup at a time) but it’s the most convenient way to have a quality coffee without turning to your local barista. Most importantly, it makes the coffee well, without sacrificing much by way of flavor or body.
The Aeropress is actually a rather unique tool because it comes with its own measuring tool. The set includes a scoop and the press itself has ovals with the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. These numbers correspond to the number of scoops you can use and where you should fill the water for each amount.
So rather than having to weigh your grounds and water to get the right ratio, you can simply use these guidelines to get the job done. While you definitely could whip out your kitchen scale, to do some serious tweaking and experimenting to find the perfect brew for you, it’s not necessary. You can get a great cup without all of that.
Thanks to those handy measurement markers, you can switch up your ratio to achieve anything from an espresso-like concentration to something resembling your average brew.
