Aeropress
One of the most genius brewing devices we have come across...
This is a very simple way of making one cup of excellent coffee or moka (strong coffee like the one from a Bialetti coffee maker).
Here is our basic Aeropress recipe for a filter like coffee:
- Rinse the paper filter with running tap water for 10 seconds
- Use 14 grams of freshly fine filter ground coffee (light roast)
- Pour 200g of water at about 95°C over the coffee.
- Stir 3 times and steep for 60 seconds.
- Place the handle on the Aeropress in order to prevent the water from draining through the filter.
- After 60 second steep time, take the handle off, stir 3 times back to front.
- Then place the handle on top of the aeropress and press the contents into a large cup or pitcher by using your body weight
For a stronger coffee similar to the one made on a Bialetti pot, you can follow this recipe:
- Rinse the paper filter with running tap water for 10 seconds
- Use 20 grams of espresso roasted coffee ground for Bialetti moka pots (quite fine)
- Pour 100 – 150g of water brought to a boil (straight from the water boiler) on the ground coffee.
- Give the brew 3 vigourous stirs.
- Press by using your body weight and enjoy.
