G'day, Today we're going to make an AeroPress using the paper
0:03
filter.
0:08
We're using the Artisti recipe,
0:10
which we've perfected, and we think it's so easy for you guys to use at home.
0:14
It comes in the box.
0:15
If you buy one of these from us
0:17
and what you're going to need is right here in front of us.
0:20
The box gives you the paper filters and the holder,
0:22
a little scoop, a stirrer
0:25
and your little black cap, which holds your filters in place.
0:29
And you've got your AeroPress plunger as well.
0:32
Things you might need extra is a scale We've got 16 grams of coffee.
0:36
A single origins ideal if you're making black.
0:39
Some sort of cup that you can then press into.
0:41
It's going to be solid so you don't squash it.
0:44
You can use a hand grinder, which is awesome.
0:46
But today we're going to use the Niche because it's going to be nice and quick
0:49
and you're going to need some boiled water at 93 degrees.
0:51
The Stagg kettle we've got here, which is awesome
0:53
because it's set to 93 degrees and there's a hold button on the back
0:56
which maintains that temperature perfect for us.
0:58
Let's get stuck into it.
0:59
So we've got our grind.
1:01
On the Niche we've set this the paper filter.
1:03
That's our 16 grams of coffee.
1:06
Close the lid and away we go.
1:11
Pop that straight into the AeroPress there.
1:15
It does come with a funnel too which sits on top and we're not using it today.
1:20
But that funnel can also allow you to
1:23
when you press into a smaller opening cup, that will help you as well.
1:28
So it can be a funnel or into a small cup.
1:30
A lot of people don't realize that.
1:32
So we're going to get our 93 degree hot water.
1:35
We're going to start our timer and put in 30 grams of liquid,
1:38
which is going to be our bloom.
1:42
I'm going to give that a stir
1:54
and you can just rinse off
1:55
a little paddle there nice and easy.
2:01
I'm going to go all the way up to 200 grams
2:07
and if you've got a bit of that grind sitting on the top,
2:08
just go round and make sure you do get that 100% saturated
2:15
and we get 200 grams of hot water.
2:19
We need to get a paper filter, pop that into the black cap
2:23
and you need to wet that as well.
2:37
We're going to pop it on the top
2:41
and we're going to depress the top chamber down
2:44
so that the syringe is going to push the air to the top.
2:51
You'll see a few of those bubbles coming out.
2:52
And just when that crema just starts to come through.
2:55
Great.
2:56
Now we're going to wait for that two minute mark
2:58
where we're doing that immersion brew.
2:59
So basically, the coffee is just sitting there and floating around in water.
3:03
There's no pressure
3:04
that's actually being applied to this coffee bed
3:06
and that's why we call it an immersion brew.
3:08
So we're at 2 minutes now and we're doing the inverted method as well.
3:12
So in the manual you actually have an it the other way,
3:15
but it becomes more of a pour over.
3:16
So we do love this style of brewing.
3:20
So going to pop on our glass and then we're going to invert the two together.
3:24
Just pop your scale and things out the way
3:29
and give it a press.
3:34
Now, if you go too
3:35
fine, it's going to be really hard to actually push this down.
3:38
So getting the right grind
3:41
and allowing that paper filter to hold back all of that
3:44
coffee is ideal.
3:52
Now it's a bit of a debate whether you go all the way to the end
3:54
and make the air come out or not.
3:55
So I'm going to stop a little bit early.
3:58
Tip that upside down.
4:02
We're ready to go.
4:04
So there you go.
4:04
There is our standard inverted method with a paper filter.
4:08
Artisti brew recipe, 16 grams of coffee 200mls of hot water.
4:13

4:16
