Yeah, I love Aeropress coffee but after burning myself while using the inverted method I've resolved to using Kalita Wave at work and Chemex at home.
I do sometimes miss the flexibility of the Aeropress, especially doing 15 minute brews with really coarse grounds to bring out some unique flavour, but I make up for it with better beans nowadays.
- ses1984 7y agoThe inverted method is needlessly complex. Use the unit normally. Fill it with coffee and water. Insert the plunger but don't press down. It makes a seal, and the seal prevents coffee from dripping out. It's like holding your finger over a straw. Sure, a few drips might make it through, but probably you will be able to trap 95% of the brew.

- ValentineC 7y ago> The inverted method is needlessly complex. How is it needlessly complex? I do it everyday, and it seems more "natural" in making a full immersion brew, compared to the normal method which doesn't let you stir once you insert the plunger.

- ses1984 7y agoDo you really need to stir after you insert the plunger? I sometimes wiggle the aeropress a bit too break the crust in top.
- oo0shiny 7y agoThis is exactly what I do. Or just give the plunger a tug upwards to create a bit of back-pressure. Keeps the water in the tube until you plunge.
