As I sit here writing this review, I am enjoying one of the best cups of coffee I have ever brewed. I almost wish you could be here so I might share the rich, smooth non-bitter taste that is possible using the Aeropress Coffee and Espresso Maker by Aerobie.
From start to cleanup takes less than 3-4 minutes. Heat 10 oz of water to approximately 175 degrees. This is the recommended temperature for brewing the best tasting coffee or espresso; hotter than this can cause your coffee or espresso to taste bitter or acidic. The best way to get to this temperature is by heating your water in a microwave and then using a thermometer, experimenting until you have the timing right.
After placing a filter into the cap, twist the cap onto the chamber and place the chamber onto a sturdy mug. Put 2 scoops of your favorite fine to coarse ground coffee into the chamber and then pour enough hot water into the chamber to fill to the 2 cup level marker. Stir the water and coffee with the included paddle for 10 seconds. Wet the seal on the plunger and insert the plunger into the chamber, using a gentle downward pressure. Maintain this gentle pressure for about 20-30 seconds or until the plunger bottoms out on the coffee grounds. Congratulations, you just made your first double espresso, or your can fill your mug to the top with the rest of the hot water for a typical American-style coffee.
Cleanup is simple. Twist off the cap and push the plunger the rest of the way to eject the used coffee grounds. Rinse the seal to remove any remaining grounds and you're done. You can even rinse the filter and re-use it if you like.
Coffee, espresso, lattes, cappucinos...all are brewed easily, quickly, inexpensively and with great results. I highly recommend trying the Aeropress Coffee and Espresso Maker by Aerobie. This might just be the last coffee or espresso maker you buy.
