BREWING WITH THE AEROPRESS

BREWING WITH THE AEROPRESS

Quick, easy, convenient, yet able to brew high-quality cups just as amazing as machines with many times the price tag, the AeroPress has recently gained a very strong following. The AeroPress is very forgiving and versatile with a lot of room for experimentation - here's two easy brewing methods to get you started:

 

Standard Method

For a robust, well-rounded, clean brew that the AeroPress is known for.

  1. Begin by placing two paper filters in your AeroPress cap. The added resistance from the double filters enhances our extraction.
  2. Place 15g of your chosen medium/fine Adore Coffee grounds into the chamber. Pour in 225g of boiling water, stirring gently to ensure every ground is adequately wetted.
  3. To prevent any water leakage, push the plunger about 1-2cm into the chamber's top, crafting a neat vacuum.
  4. Wait for 2 minutes, allowing the magic to happen. Then, gently and steadily plunge until you detect the sound of air hissing out. A word of caution: don't press further to avoid over-extraction and those unwelcome bitter tones.
  5. Adore every sip. Remember to give your AeroPress a quick cleanup afterwards.

 

Espresso-like/Bypass Method

For a more concentrated brew, like an espresso. Brewing with a higher coffee-to-water ratio can make for a creamier mouthfeel, even when adding water afterwards to taste.

  1. As above, position two paper filters into your AeroPress filter cap to increase resistance and enhance our extraction.
  2. Introduce 25g of finely ground Adore Coffee to the chamber, followed by 90-100g of boiling water. Stir with passion, making sure every ground is submerged and ready for extraction.
  3. If you don't have a pressure attachment, insert the plunger just 1-2cm into the chamber's top to form a protective vacuum. If you've got a pressure attachment, you can skip this step.
  4. After a 1-minute-30-second wait, give the plunger a vigorous press. This forceful action helps generate that inviting crema on top of your shot.
  5. Adjust with water to match your strength preference or add milk (or alternatives) to create that cafe vibe right in the comfort of your home.

Step into a new frontier in coffee brewing with the AeroPress.
