Some tricks helped me get to 2nd runner-up in Singapore Aeropress Championship! Thank you!!

What tricks? And congrats!

Its like watching 2 brothers brew coffee and having giggles.

[@ZonGoEriceira]

When you flip the AeroPress there's no way to avoid some dripping right away. But this water just barely had contact with water, so should be unextracted. What do you think?

[@coffeewithapril]

You would have to taste the total cup to determine the quality of that extraction. Coffee is never uniformed extracted which means that a little bit of spill should not make much difference.

[@ZonGoEriceira]

​@@coffeewithaprilThanks for the reply. I'll further test this recipe. Had good results so far

[@coffeewithapril]

@@ZonGoEriceira Thats great to hear. Thank you for sharing.

Jesus used an Aeropress 🙏🏽

[@SuperPimpek123]

Thanks for sharing this. I've never been a huge fan of the aeropress. I've had interesting cups from AP (namely dillution recipes like this one), but not something that would replace my V60.

[@coffeewithapril]

Thank you for watching

[@mariai9549]

i'm the exact opposite. I use AP every day because it's much more forgiving for all different coffees. I hardly use the V60, Kalita.

As someone interested in entering Aeropress competitions, what advice do you have regarding learning to create and creating my own recipes?

[@nikolabankovmusic]

have you ever tried metal filter? What do you think about it?

[@coffeewithapril]

Thank you for watching. We have used metal filters and as it stands we prefer paper versions.

[@simon_gautherin]

Congrats Rasmus! Did you build your own water for the comp? If yes do you mind sharing the recipe? Cheers

[@simon_gautherin]

Thanks Rasmus! Any particular reason why you didn't want to build your own water and decided to use Third wave?

[@PrimoPaul21]

What timer/scale do you use?

[@coffeewithapril]

Thank you for watching. We are using the Acaia Scales.

[@LOLMONSTER87]

What is the name of the special aeropress filter?

[@coffeewithapril]

It's referenced in the video.

[@SuperPimpek123]

They're called Aubade Aesir.

[@eldricstuart411]

The filters are sold under the name AESIR which is a Nordic mythology reference, but our company, Aubade manufactures them. You can pick them up on Amazon or from some distributors. Shoot us an email if you have any questions.
