I am with Manny. Not sure where that leaves me as far as the battle lines are concerned, but INVERTED AEROPRESS IS THE ONLY WAY TO AEROPRESS (!)
For the record, I use the inverted aeropress brew method on all of our early-morning coffee rides in Portland, and have never scalded myself or broken a table or had any other catastrophes. I think Aeropress is pretty much perfect as far as a brewing method for being on the road (whether by bike or otherwise) is concerned. It's a very forgiving method of brewing coffee, which means, to me, you can get a decent cup even if your beans to water ratio, water temperature, or brew time is a bit off. I find if any of those things are off using pour over methods I end up with bitter, bright cups of coffee. Two pro-tips: 1. If you are pressing down on the aeropress and it's giving you crazy resistance, your grind is too fine, next time make it a little bit coarser until you get it dialed into a place where you are giving moderate pressure and able to move the plunger downward. 2. This thing is pretty sweet: http://ablebrewing.com/collections/products/#travel-cap-for-aeropress. You can put beans and filters (or whatever you'd like) in the cylinder of the aeropress, which is handy for bike ridin. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
