Yes?
It's easy to use, easy to clean, and it lets you infusion brew with any grind size you want.
I can take the grind I use for my moka at home, and brew it in my aeropress at work.
I mean, how can it be bad? It's not a machine that takes control over temp, ratio, and brew time. You do all of it, so you can't blame the resulting cup on the press, it's all on you. The only thing left to discuss after that is how easy is it to use, and it's very easy.

Who cares, aeropress is just better. I'd pay $100 for one if I had to even if the v60 was free. The amortized cost is basically the cost of the filter, which is clearly (significantly) more expensive for the v60. I wanted to dispute the "waste of money" claim. It looks like we've concluded, again, that the real cost difference is negligible. Having used both extensively, I'll go with the aeropress.

Cope. The aeropress makes just as good coffee as the v60. It's a vessel for mixing water and coffee. The edge is in the form factor.

If you don't have a stove then I can see why you'd worry about wasting money. Anyway the fact is you will have a harder time with v60.

Sorry friendo, your estrogenpress isn't looking too good here.
A french press does the same thing as an aeropress, you can even put paper filters on the french press if you want. Same exact taste as a aeropress.

>> No.14901461

>>14901026
Feels the best to use and makes coffee that is just as tasty as my best v60 brews with less hassle. Filtering a french press is no fun so I don't do it. I don't really like the pourover routine either. These are all opinions, my point is that at worst, it's not even more expensive than any other brew method, so it's only a waste if you don't use it.
For me the biggest waste/least favorite brewer is the chemex, since it is made of glass and uses expensive filters, the amortized cost per cup is high.

I'm debating on getting either a Toddy Cold Brew machine (for concentrate to use with hot coffee) or a Clever Dripper.

Why do people need a device to soak coffee grounds in desu? I usually just dump them in a large pitcher with water, wait a day and then strain through a fine mesh strainer.
Using a dedicated device seems like overkill, unless they provide some other benefit.

Clever dripper is based tho

Should I compare coffees in my v60? They all taste pretty similar to me and a little bitter

>> No.14912342

Finally dialed in my aeropress recipe today for consistent sweetness and low acidity across different roasts and origins. Here it is:
>230g water at 205F, 16g coffee, ,~14.3:1 ratio.
>Prismo/inverted method (use a bit less water and coffee for inverted)
>Medium-coarse grind, between drip and french press. 7.5 on 1zpresso K-Plus.
>Start timer, dump 80-100% of the water in quickly until the foam reaches the brim, stir in a vertical circular motion just enough to sink the grounds on top of the foam. Top it off and stir again if necessary.
>Wait until 1:40, gently stir the top a couple times to break the crust.
>Press, finishing at 2:05-2:10 on the timer.
>Grind finer if it's too acidic, coarser if the finish is bitter or unpleasant at all.
Might see how a 15.5g dose tastes next but otherwise I'm quite satisfied with this.

If you're lucky enough to find it, Illy has a specific pre-ground for moka pot.
Otherwise, the only way you'll do better than Lavazza's "espresso" pre-ground is to get a grinder and grind your own.
Lavazza's preground "espresso" is actually a moka-grind anyway. Illy's moka-grind is hard to find, and their espresso-grind is finer than Lavazza's, (not meant for moka).

This entire story is false... are you helplessly misguided?
Aeropress is not marketed as an espresso maker. That's not the role it fulfils, all marketing pictures it on a full-size mug making a cup of coffee. It's a cheap and easy way to make filtered coffee with hot water.

I find starting at quite a low heat setting (mine gives me a temp of around 60c without any beans in the chamber) and ramping smoothly and faster during the first 2 minutes then slowly for the next 2 minutes works well. The last heat setting should be hit around 2minutes or more before FC starts - and it should be enough to give at least 5degrees C ROR at the lowest. Your total roast time and development time are nearly exactly what my go to profile gives.

Right now I'm working on interbatch consistency. Warm up batches in particular are very different, but so far I find doing the same profile but starting at a higher start temp and hitting my end heat earlier.
