I was starting a business importing roasted coffee from Europe to the US a few years ago. I asked my roaster in Paris what machine he recommended. His suggestion was over 1,000 euro.
Smiled, and said my wife won't sacrifice counter space.
He came back with Aeropress and i've never looked back. Near espresso flavor... I do double size - 16 grams fresh ground (using a Porlex) with 6 grams of water:coffee.
Also use the "upside down" hack and permafilters (the finest screen one).
- m0zg 7y ago>> Near espresso flavor. As someone whose counter space is "wasted" on a rather large espresso machine, let me just say, you need to try better coffee. Especially if you're "starting a business importing roasted coffee". You have no way to test if your product is any good otherwise.
- bransonf 7y agoIf you like the upside down hack, consider the Fellow Prismo. You can actually do the upside down hack right side up because the valve is sealed.
- hansthehorse 7y agoUpside down should be the normal mode. It's really the best way to use it.
- enneff 7y agoYou were starting a coffee business and didn't want to invest in one of the major ways your consumers will use the beans? How'd it work out for you?
