Do you like your coffee strong, delicious & quick? Then this may be the go to coffee maker for any coffee connoisseurs. Perfect for the traveler or camper as it’s easy to store, carry & clean. Not to mention easy to use.
What you need:
- An Aeropress
- A mug
- Paper or metal filter
- A scale
- A timer/watch
- 20g of ground coffee (per coffee)
- 200g of hot water at around 90ºC
The process:
This will make you enough coffee for one large mug or two small cups of coffee. If you want a stronger cup of coffee, just increase the amount of ground coffee.
Step 1
Put your Aeropress on the scale with the filter end up. Insert a filter into the plastic cap and keep aside.
Step 2
Add 20g of ground coffee into the Aeropress.
Step 3
Start your timer. Pour in 200g of hot water into the chamber. The water should be at about 88ºC–90ºC.
Step 4
Let it sit for one minute.
Step 5
Remove the Aeropress from the scales. Place the cap with the filter inside on top of the Aeropress, locking it into place. Now comes the tricky bit.
Step 6
Place your mug on top and flip the whole thing over. Now you’re ready to press.
Step 7
Gently press down at a slow and steady pace until there is no more water to push through the device. You will hear a little hissing sound when the water has all been pressed out.
Step 8
Lift the Aeropress out and you’re ready to drink your coffee.
