Ready to take your coffee routine to the next level? The AeroPress is a fantastic way to brew a rich, full-bodied cup of coffee, and the inverted method gives you even more control over the flavor.
This method involves using the AeroPress in reverse, allowing your coffee to steep longer and achieve the perfect balance of aromas and flavors. It’s simple, and super delicious. Read on!
I don't know who first decided to invert their AeroPress, but many people believe the method became popular around 2008, just three years after the AeroPress was invented in 2005.
To brew using the inverted method, start by placing the plunger on your counter with the rubber seal facing up.
Place the chamber upside down on the plunger and push the chamber down so that the rubber seal enters the chamber at least 20 mm.
Hold the chamber firmly with one hand and pour ground coffee and then hot water into the chamber as desired.
You can then stir and let it steep for any desired time. When the desired steeping time is reached, screw the filter cap (with filter in it) onto the chamber.
Finally, hold both the chamber and plunger firmly with both hands and “invert” the AeroPress, placing it directly on a mug or vessel.
Press the coffee through the filter into your mug as you would with standard brewing, and enjoy.
T he main difference between the two is how the coffee is extracted. While the traditional method pushes water through the coffee (percolation), the reverse method lets the coffee steep in the water for a longer period of time (immersion).
Which is better? There is no "right" answer. It all comes down to personal preference and taste.
With these supplies, you'll be all set to get started and brew the perfect cup of AeroPress coffee!
The AeroPress inverted method is popular because it allows for complete immersion of the coffee, resulting in a richer flavor and fuller body. Here’s how to do it:
