> for some reason the 'correct' version of carbonara is oft debated online
No it's not
> I've been to Italy a number of times and had it with or without cream.
Either you are larping or you ate at some tourist place, if you have been to Rome


> A lot of these "No cream allowed" rules for italian dishes are not traditional but rather came about from 1940-1960s food rationing and shortages
Bullshit. Cream was used a lot during the 80's in Italy. Italian cuisine grew out that retarded cream phase but it didn't happened in the '60 because of some food shortage lol.


Why americans make up history out of their uneducated asses it's beyond me

So what? You'd probably be utterly appale3d at what a lot of professional chefs do to cut corners and save time. There's a premier wedding bakery in my area, my wife knows the lady who runs it because she went to high school. The fucking secret? She uses Betty Crocker cake mix from the fucking dollar store and cheap frosting, and then charges a fortune for a supposedly hand made cake. So get the fuck off your high horse.

>French needs to be very coarse, aero medium-fine

Yes. Because one uses a fine paper filter and the other uses relatively coarse steel mesh.

>>the "press" in the french press is just to separate the grinds from the brewed coffee, in the aero it's actually part of the brewing process

Thats not how you french press, and the "pressing" in an AP doesn't generate enough pressure to affect the brew.

>How many bars of pressure can you achieve in the AeroPress?

>The AeroPress filter is 2.5 inches in diameter so the area of the filter is 4.9 square inches. If you press down firmly on a scale, it is relatively easy to get the scale up to 25 pounds and then if you press hard on the scale, you can certainly get it up to 50 pounds. Therefore if you press similarly hard on your AeroPress while brewing coffee, the firm pressing will be at 5.1 psi (25 lbs/4.9 sq in) and the harder pressing will be at 10.2 psi (50 lbs/4.9 sq in). Since a bar of pressure is 14.7 psi, the former is .35 bar and the latter is .70 bar. We have done taste comparisons between minimal and maximum pressure on an AeroPress and our taste buds can’t tell the difference.

I pre-infuse espresso(an method that uses pressure) with more than .7bar... You got scammed by a frisbee maker. Its the kind of shit you'd see mike myers and dana carvey meme on.
