The Only 3 AeroPress Recipes You’ll Need- Barista Edition.

The AeroPress is a great way to make coffee at home, but it can tie up a large chunk of your precious morning.

Often with home coffee brewing the more precise you are following the recipes, the better the results.

Some mornings I find myself hyper-engaged and I pull out all the brewing stops, other times, I just want something that’s quick, easy and gives me a good bang for my time buck.

Time poor or not, these are my go-to BEST and QUICKEST recipes that will get you brewing less and drinking more. 

 

Inverted AeroPress Method-

All these methods we invert the AeroPress. You just flip the AeroPress so that the filter/cap side is facing up, with the plunger on the bottom.

 

What you’ll need-

• AeroPress
• AeroPress paper filters
• Freshly roasted Fox Coffee beans
• Hand grinder or Automatic grinder or Pre-ground coffee if you’re being naughty
• Scale for coffee measuring (or a tablespoon)
• Electric gooseneck kettle or stovetop kettle
• A Mug - The sturdier the better!

Clean Up and Washing- 

One of the AeroPress’ best attributes.

Give the unit a good rinse under some hot water and let dry. 

 

The AeroPress is a forgiving way to brew coffee. It does reward those that invest a little more time, but you can get tasty coffee on the run too.
