AeroPress Inventor Alan Adler: Single Cup AeroPress Brewing Technique

[@dan.w.2432]

It's really refreshing to see the inventor take us through making a cup and explaining his design choices and usage, rather than another slick commercial from a marketing team.

[@michaeldimmitt2188]

I agree too. I so appreciate the straight-talking-no-script conversation at the kitchen island. Guys like this don't care about slick production, just efficient communication. Reminds me of several WW II vets and farmers I have met in my lifetime. Love me some straight shoot'n! Just needs to edit out "microwave" and insert "dishwasher" (via overdub)... after rinsing you don't need to put it into the _______.

Dear Mr. Adler, Your invention changed my life, no exaggeration. I use it every day, take it with me when i travel (along with a thermos of hot water) and have made great coffee on the Amtrak, out of the trunk of my car and I take it with me when I backpack. I sing its praises to anyone who will listen and have given five of them as gifts. And you look just like my grandfather from when I was young.

I’m really new to this party and only been using the AeroPress for a few months. I have watched so many videos about it and was so overwhelmed by all the unnecessary over the top pompousness of precise and meticulous measurements of water and temperature and even how many times to stir! Then along came Alan the guy who created this awesome device and he couldn’t have made it simpler. Awesome man, awesome device, awesome coffee every morning ❤

[@aiocafea]

while i think i am particularly fussy with measuring everything, i agree that it feels nice to have a brewer that encourages you to take it easy my moka pot is nice but it is also a bit fussy, not to mention it's a chore to clean, my french press is forgiving but only really practical for bigger amounts of coffee, whereas the aeropress does not ask me to worry, it's just put a scoop, add water, press it like the magical coffee button and it's filtered flowery 1 cup easy to clean goodness

[@katperson7332]

@@aiocafeaI’ve got a really small French press which makes enough for just one cup, and a tiny moka pot which does the same. I like both of them. However this week I bought an Aero Press out of curiosity but so far I find it more fiddly to use than I thought it would be. It’s early days though so I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

This man saved me so much time in life and money, no more early morning runs to Starbucks

[@askmiller]

One thing that really stands out to me about this product is that the inventor came up with how he intended people to use it, but made intentional design decisions such as adding the numbers all the way up to 4 even though he only uses it up to 1-2 so that you can come up with thousands of unique ways to make coffee with it. Usually when you buy kitchen gadgets, they're crap, but this device is clearly manufactured to last. The way the grinds pop out as a single disposable puck is probably my favorite part. Cleanup is like all of 15 seconds.

[@richardholt4154]

I cannot believe how good this coffee maker is! I’m 75 and have had every type of coffee maker known to man. I have to say that my first experience of real coffee was from an aluminum stove top percolator (with a glass piece in the lid) when I was a small child. It was the type mentioned which brewed coffee for ages. I have to say that it was the start of my love affair with ‘the real thing’ and I’ve always loathed instant coffee. Thank you, Alan, for inventing what I now consider to be the ultimate in coffee makers.

[@dpicardi23]

With all the elaborate recipes for this device it’s so nice to see how simple it is to make a nice sweet cup of coffee. Thank you. 1 scoop. Not inverted. Cover with 1.5 x water. 10 sec stir. Slow depress. Dilute 3 or 4 to 1. Nice.

[@djjorgeforklift6012]

@patw421 same here! This is the tutorial I was seeking for! Could only come from the inventor himself 😀

[@daybreakgray3452]

I believe you fill the chamber with water up till the circle that corresponds to the number of scoops. He poured it up to 1.5 because his scoop had more at top. How does your coffee taste with 1.5?

[@PeterPhinney]

@@daybreakgray3452 see that's why folk use scales. y'all discussing 1.5 for a non specific amount of coffee and that's hard to tinker with.

[@allanjmcpherson]

@Deep Cut Reactions it's actually not though. You can take multiple scoops of coffee with the same scoop and have significantly different masses of coffee in each, even if they're level scoops. If you're using rounded scoops, there's even more uncertainty. Those differences can radically change the cup of coffee you get out, so if you care about consistency, weighing is really the way to go.

[@Zacharyr222]

Tried a mokapot, French press, generic coffee maker… best inexpensive option I’ve tried is the aero press and it tastes amazing. Far superior to other methods. First day I bought mine, I made a latte that was equivalent to the $5 latte I was buying every day before work. Don’t do any fancy recipe that anyone else uses either. Used Dunkin’ Donuts blend coffee grounds (all I had) and was very amazed by what it did with that. Do it pretty close to how the inventor does it which is just by the instructions. No temp controlled kettle, no measuring out, just used the scoop, stir for 10 secs, and gently press. Outstanding product

[@Fealinrin]

[@carlospwk]

This video should be nr. 1 in the search results for “aeropress”. When I first looked up Aeropress, I was turned off by the video I found of some guy taking forever to make one cup of coffee and thought it was a PITA process. But this one shows just how easy it is to use and clean. I’ll be buying one shortly!

[@lilbatz]

You feel my pain. I bought an AP Go. Between timing, scales, grind blah blah blah ..I thought FML, I bought a hobby, after watching most of those vids. I do mostly french press, which is minimal hassle. The way shown in this vid is giving my french press a run for it's money. Coffee was great. Passing the link on to my friends, who bought an Aeropress, but believe its too much hassle after watching a batista fiddle with a scale, and brewing immersion style.

[@Zveebo]

Sorry, but this guy doesn’t have a clue how to make coffee properly using an Aeropress - he’s using completely slapdash methodology and completely failing to accurately measure at every step 😡 I would bet his coffee is completely undrinkable 🤮 This might have been coffee I would have accepted before I started learning about true coffee from the experts in the field, but that was just because of my own ignorance! Making coffee using an Aeropress is an intricate process because coffee technologists and connoisseurs have devoted their lives to the process. If you can’t spend twenty or so minutes to prepare your coffee properly, frankly you shouldn’t be doing it all.

[@lilbatz]

@@Zveebo The guy in the video is the INVENTOR of Aeropress. He's not some rando throwning up vids for sh*ts and giggles. His invention is to make expresso like coffee with minimal bells and whistles. That's the type of coffee he likes, and that's why he does what he does. Then people morphed his product to something else for there own liking. That's fine if you want to fart around with scales, temperature controled kettles and stop watches. No harm no foul Coffee enjoyment is a spectrum from the guy who throws instant into a cup with warm water to James Hoffman. Moralizing coffee making into some character assessment is weird. I have made coffee EXACTLY as Adler did, and it was delicious. I've also made pour overs, drips, moka and french press. I don't bother with the inverted Aeropress method, because I have a french press for that. The Aeropress is what I need in the morning when I can't do 20 minutes for a french press. 5 mins vs about 30 mins (start to clean up). Not every coffee experience has to rival an organic chemistry experiment.

[@carlospwk]

I bought one about 3 weeks ago. Been using it every day, I love it. I don’t really measure things that much, just fiddle with a bit with the amount and grind of coffee, guesstimate the amount of water and that’s it. Coffee doesn’t have to be so serious :)

[@Zveebo]

​@@lilbatz I didn't notice that. But it doesn't change my point - he should watch videos from some of the coffee experts here on KZbin, and he would very quickly realise that the coffee he claims to 'enjoy' is actually complete trash. And then find out how to develop a precise and carefully calibrated process which would allow him to make a drinkable cup. People, even inventors, should always be willing to learn from their mistakes with the expertise from those who know better.

[@audioa41]

Love the way he explains it. So much more simple than some of these other complicated tutorials.

[@manuelpenaruiz3694]

Using 1X or 1.5X depends on how much extraction you want to achieve and how fine your coffee grind is. It must be clear that more water equals more extraction (more thermal mass, more solvent available for coffee solids to dissolve) With near espresso grind you get a fast extraction, so stirring for 10-15 seconds should be more than enough. Using more water you run the risk of over extraction. Mr Alan suggest 80°C for medium and dark coffees and 85°C for light roasts but kindly note that Mr Alan is using a pretty dark coffee, so for medium or lighter coffees you should want to stirr a bit more and raise your water temperature till you get the desired sweetness. For the same grind size, temperature and water quantity impact your extraction. Espresso fine grounds may clog the filter and induce some channeling if you press hard enough. A bit coarser grind size should fix this in most cases as water tends to diffuse and flow much better thru the grounds. Water temperature determines not how much is extracted from coffee but WHEN. Higher Temp = faster extraction In the same way more water volume = faster and more complete extraction I'm a huge fan of the AP and has become my go-to method. What I've done so far: I keep water volume and temperature the same and always adjust by grind size only. It works fantastic!

[@humanormachine2936]

After some research on the best way to make a great cup of coffee at home, I was finally sold on the AeroPress when I learned that it consistently beat out competitors for flavor. I just bought one and can't wait to try it. Honestly, it's not the sleekest, most elegant coffee device out there, but that's a necessary tradeoff for a very affordable product with an ingenious and travel friendly design.

[@gonzalozech]

@@Ukrulysses Coffee needs hot water to extract its soluble components, from 85°C to 100°C depending on how roasted the coffee is and how thin or coarse you are grinding your coffee beans. Milk starts to taste really bad when it goes hotter than 70°C so is never recommended to heat milk beyond 65°C, not enough to successfully extract your coffee.

Picked up an aeropress at the store yesterday, and used this method on the remainder of my preground bag coffee (as I'm waiting for my first grinder to come in). Even with preground, this made a far more delicious cup than my french press with the same coffee. A solid place to start with this nifty brewer!

Just made my first Aeropress coffee with this method (using organic freshly ground beans!). I don’t think I’ll ever use my French press again; this is how coffee is meant to taste! Cheers, to Mr. Adler! ☕️

Just bought my Aeropress. This video was very helpful. My first cup was delicious. Thank you.

Mr Adler, I got my first Aero press yesterday it works great. Thank you

I have the gold one as well; since I was a college student. Man, the value is absolutely incredible and it makes unreasonably good coffee with a metal filter! A decade later I still prefer it for certain roasts over my expensive espresso machine. Well done and thank you so much

The puck can be used in the garden as organic fertiliser, adding nitrogen to the soil as well as improving soil structure. Be careful not to add too much as it can raise soil acidity, which isn't a problem if you have high alkaline soil.

Alan you are an absolute legend.

[@oddknack]

thank you for your work. every day i use your invention, and really enjoy my coffee

[@deitralewis-metcalfe7363]

Very interesting, I look forward to trying this. And it was great to see the actual inventor doing the presentation!!

I've been down the road of French press, where I first realized just how damn good immersion coffee is. Tried pour-over with a Hario kit, and wasn't as happy as I was with my press. Requires a scale (which I had), a timer (used my phone), careful measurement of the coffee and water, blooming the bed, timing and measuring your pour(s)...I love that his method is "one heaping scoop and water to the 1-1/2 mark." So much simpler and easy to adjust without tools. Just ordered the AP Go so I can give this a try. Post-dinner coffee has become a habit and keeps me from snacking on sweets!

Thank you, sir, for some of the best coffee of my life. I originally bought mine for camping, but it's in daily use!

[@allandupale5288]

I was gifted with an AeroPress and is now excited to brew my Allan coffee!

[@dawarner6302]

I have had one of these for over 8 years! I love it! I have a stainless steel filter and this is a great conservation.

[@majhoolmaroof2065]

Thank you for the invention sir. You have made my mornings happily brighter!

[@qrphfradio7753]

i just purchased the earopress here in the UK, Wow! my coffee tastes so good using this device..Thank you sir, my french press and Tasimo are now both redundant 😎

[@Haze1434]

Literally got myself an Aeropress and used it for the first time for my 2 coffees this morning. Wonderfully simple and works great.

Just got mine and love the video and tidbits of coffee history. Thanks for the video! I specifically got mine to take to Greece in September. I'll be there three weeks, one of my nieces near Athens is getting married, and I have friends and family all over Greece to visit. Love a Greek frappe but my gut can't stand that every day. So excited to take my aeropress with me and have my cold brew every day! So compact, too!

I've had my aero press coffee maker for a few weeks now and if you follow these directions to a t, it's important that you use close to espresso ground coffee. When I first opened and used the aero press I had only medium ground coffee, and the cup wasn't nearly strong enough. After experimenting a bit, I've found that to get an equally good cup with medium to course ground coffee, about double everything: I like to use 2 rounded scoops and fill to the number 4; everything else I keep the same, I still fill my mug the rest of the way with water. However using espresso grind and following the directions printed perfectly makes a delicious cup; it's what I make every morning.

[@doc8125]

for corse grinds you would want a longer steep time and use the inverted method, which ends up really making a totally different style of coffee, but still good

I love the AeroPress system and now I am going to try a latte. Thank you .😀☕
