How to Brew Coffee in an AeroPress | Stumptown Coffee

It's cheap and no need to worry breaking it, since it's plastic. Also the easiest thing to clean. Hipsters usually use things that are impractical, can't really say that this is.

[@shebeep]

@@peterdunfield4911 steps involved in French press 0. grind coffee, heat water. 1. mix hot water and grounds 2. separate brewed coffee from grounds 3. clean up. steps involved with aeropress 0. grind coffee, heat water. 1. apply filter. 2. mix hot water and grounds. seal the device 3. separate brewed coffee from grounds. 4. clean up. Just ignore the 10 seconds thing and the 1 minute 50 too. you can use preground. in my experience grinds that are fine work well too you don't need rough one. ignore the entire 17 grams thing. 1 spoon is all you need, anywhere from 15- 25 will work fine and some friends prefer two scoops per cup. Time I tried everywhere from 30 seconds to 4 minutes and they were alright. find the sweet spot for yourself and don't stress about it.

[@tarynspink]

Directions for those that care. You're welcome. 1. Heat water (205 degrees F) 2. Measure Coffee (17 grams or 1 Aeropress Scoop slightly above the lip of the spoon) 3. Grind coffee to medium/fine grind 4. Add paper filter. "Preheat/pre-wet" filter and mug by rinsing it with water. (Discard water) 5. Prepare to brew: Insert filter and place Aeropress on top of mug. Insert ground coffee 6. Start timer. 7. Fill with water to #4 (about 220 grams of water) within 10 seconds. Stir slurry. 8. Place plunger in at an angle, pull up slightly to create pressure seal. 9. At 1:15, stir slurry one final time. 10. Plunge coffee slow and steady. Once you hear the "hiss" the brew is over. Total time should take 1:45 - 1:55 time.

​@@JacquesvanBremen nah since 1 mL of water = 1 gram, it's the easiest way if your grounds are already sitting on the scale. plus the aeropress doesn't have milliliter or fluid ounce markings. other liquids with different densities should be measured in mL obviously but grams are common for water

I've been having trouble finding a method that makes consistently flavorful and not bitter coffee with the AeroPress, and the first try with this method was amazing. It was bold yet smooth and not bitter or acidic at all. I will stick with this and hope it keeps working for me. I did skip the looking at the stars and mountain biking steps, but those don't seem to be crucial.

Even though this video made me want to go outside and rub some dirt on my clothes, I do have to admit the Aeropress is about the handiest way to make good coffee.

I love the aesthetic and the attention to detail. It’s very soothing and I might watch it a couple more times, use it as a timer while I make the coffee. I hope you’ve already done one for the hand espresso machines and the manual milk foamers, if not, please do one.

Water's density is not constant across the temperature range (it expands as the temperature rises), and at 100 °C it's 0.95835 g/ml, so (assuming it's still 100 °C when it goes into container) it would be: 220 [g] / 0.95835 [g/ml]= 230 [ml] (rounded up).

[@desertrainfrog1691]

@@SwirlOfColors It also expands as it freezes, thus why ice floats. (Expands at freezing compared to say 8 degrees Celsius) So it's not totally accurate to say "it expands as it's temperature rises" But for all intents and purposes when it comes to coffee, you can leave the fancy science out of it I guess. I don't get people who weigh coffee out.

[@SwirlOfColors]

@@desertrainfrog1691 I know that, it starts to expand even as liquid below 4 ℃ (assuming normal pressure, or even more correctly pressure range that this statement holds true, lol), that's beside the point in the original context (calculating volume of hot water water of given weight).

Intriguing in a negative sort of way that so many comments are critical of how elaborate and multi-stepped this is. Well, slow down and learn-your next tweet will wait.

[@ChucksSEADnDEAD]

+Norman Dale it's a hand press for coffee. With the number of steps and time taken I am sure you could just get a normal French press about that size so you could take it into "the wild". Instead of "preheating the mug" just take that extra water to wash afterwards. Who the hell measures water in grams? Do not make the overused "hurr durr millennial need to tweet" joke when the dude in this video is more of a millennial stereotype than you will ever see in your life. This isn't about attention span, if anything the one minute between leaving the plunger and stirring a second time would give plenty of time to tweet, that is if you have service in "the wild". Hell, one could just take a moka pot in the camping pack, it's not gonna break one's back.

[@Newspeak.]

Titanium Rain there are no more steps to this then there are to a French press, you don’t need to worry about preheating anything. Just use the scoop and level it off, grind, add hot water to the “4” position wait like a min and slowly plunge. This is higher pressure then a French press and makes a cleaner better tasting cup of coffee albeit only one cup at a time. It’s only as complex as you want to make it.

I myself hate to be even considered "that guy" - I though this method was mediocre - he didn't use the inverted method (and thereby complicating his own process), he didn't pre-infuse the coffee and let it bloom, and in my view he wasted effort by pre-heating the cup and chamber (so ridiculously unnecessary).

They should just say mLs though, because you aren't putting it on a scale when you pour. Plus the density is not quite 1 at 200F, it is a little less. I think it is very hipster to say everything is measured in grams. How many grams of minimum air headspace should there be between the plunger and the the water? LOL

[@TeamSnowball1]

+Matt K a lot of the time they do use scales when they pour. Interestingly when talking about coffee I only really hear people talk about water in grams. Given that it's about 1 g/mL it doesn't really bother me.

[@matt27design]

If you like the flavour you get from that, great. It's not really the right way to use it though, by adding more filter paper you'll be losing a lot of the coffee's body. And Joe, lots of people do, it's called the "upside down method". The technique is often used at the aeropress competitions.

I don't have one of these, so I'm guessing; that said your grind might not be fine enough if the water runs through the grinds too easily without any pressure.

I pulled this up to try to convince my husband to try this method. Wow--did that go wrong. After watching that "tutorial", he wants to throw the aero press out -- "Why would I want to go through that?" Thanks a lot Stumptown.

This video is so classic.

So much work, I just chuck coffee grounds into a billy can, let it brew and use a tiny pit of cold water to push the grounds to the bottom, then pour off the top for my coffee.

This video makes me appreciate my Keurig even more.

Superb cinematography!

[@robbindiciacco8037]

You made this so difficult. Using the Aeropress is so easy- you made it seem difficult.

People might hate nespresso and brands like it but it's expanded my taste in coffee and I know what aromas I prefer from 7 months ago Starbucks was life now I am looking at expanding to another style of coffee making as I have a few fab shops which sell coffee beans and equipment in my nearest city.

Where's your helmet?

[@BrianWood]

I think this is my favorite method so far.

[@Evilgrebo]

Rube Goldberg thinks this has too many steps

[@matth8205]

Now I want an aeropress just so I can say I’m “heating the vessel” this guy could make eating sawdust sound chilled and awesome 😎🙌🏻

[@henry3397]

That one made me laugh. Same when people use the word “install” to describe something super simple. “Next we install the coffee beans into the grinder”

[@angelkwan]

Has anyone checked the subtitles? Especially at 2:54... Or is my computer just playing up??

[@AntonioRodriguez1]

Very informative video, thanks dude-guy! Although I prefer to do my 3 bike jumps in the brew phase rather than grinding phase since I'm not Goro.
