    I loved this video! I’ll admit I was laughing out loud because my wife and I used to love our pour over coffee but now with two kids and a busy work schedule we can hardly get coffee made with a coffee maker. But this made me nostalgic for life before kids and I love how much you appreciate such simple but beautiful things as a really good cup of coffee. I look forward to the next video!

      @DanWhitehead  5 років тому +1

      Thanks Brian. Ian was telling me how he judged and aeropress competition and everyone was using the inverted method except for one person and they won. I went back to the regular method after that. I dont notice much difference but upright seems more consistent for me.

    • @briangrissom9115
      @briangrissom9115 5 років тому

      Dan Whitehead that’s really interesting...clearly there is something in the regular method that changes the process enough (even slightly) to make a better cup. I’ll be trying that tomorrow. Keep stuff like this coming! Love this!!

    @ryanjette8911 5 років тому

    Been a huge fan of yours and the aeropress for a very long time. Never had any luck with the normal method and always go back to the inverted. However I will absolutely give this a shot since it's slightly different than I have done upright before. Only thing in the video I though that was missing was a measurement on how much coffee you use. Keep up the great work Dan!

    Two things I’m looking forward to the most on a Monday morning: a new video from Dan and my cup of AeroPress coffee...
    And this was insightful, I never realized how important the grind was. Have watched dozens of videos trying to understand how to make the taste less acidic and here you go, took you a few words to explain 😂 I’m in the inverted method camp tho 👌

    One suggestion--if the grind is the most important thing, maybe you should show a clearer picture of what grind size you use or at least give a generic "medium-fine," "fine," etc. That would be more useful to the 99.99% of people who don't have that grinder and thus find that "x clicks on this grinder" pointless.

    • @serdiezv
      @serdiezv 4 роки тому +2

      The thing is, it's always approximate cause not all beans are the same. You can use the same grind with similar beans and you'll still have to adjust. Medium fine is a good description, not as fine as for espresso, but finer than drip.

    Sometimes it seems that coffee is more about the method than anything else as no matter what I do it never tastes good or bad. It's just hot and it wakes me up. So I wonder if there is this magical world of coffee making where it's going to wow me with it's taste. So I watch videos (yours I enjoyed alot) and wonder if it's just me and my lack of gaining an acquired taste.

  • @stewartliesnham3868

    Great video. Pretty much the same routine as I have with the Aeropress. Mine goes everywhere with me now. I have a Porlex grinder which is really nice but that's also on the expensive side - I see it as a lifetime investment though! Interestingly (for those that like coffee!) I've left my coffee brewing in the Aeropress for like 5 mins or more sometimes when I've got sidetracked and it's still been good. My point being, I'm still not sure how critical the timing is as long as it's not too short.

    Interesting to see you went away from inverted, I went the other way.
    I managed to grab a free electric grinder, in the form of a bench top espresso machine with a busted valve. It is considerably more consistent than the hand grinders I have used. It's much quicker than hand grinding too, especially if you have company

  • @exothermal.sprocket
    @exothermal.sprocket 5 років тому

    Some helpful points to make, if you know the answers:
    * Does grind size affect ultimate concentration or acidity?
    * Does water temperature affect ultimate acidity?
    *Does brew time before press-filtration affect ultimate acidity?
    *Starting with a light, medium, medium-dark, or dark roast.. how do these factors affect the above?
    Adding extra water after press would adjust the final result to whatever strength someone might want, my guess.

    @curtisstewart9594 4 роки тому

    Go finer with grind. Tamp lightly. Pour about 1/4 of the water and let it set for 20 seconds. Pour the remaining water in and start plunging immediately.
    No stirring.
    Use your forearm as it will take some weight to do it.
    Using the same coffee it will give a different flavor.
    I like a strong bittersweet flavor and this way does it for me.
    BTW I do not weigh anything and have invested in a really good grinder.
    To see what a difference a really good grinder can do try a shot with yours and then with the good grinder. You can tell the difference. Especially when you get to finer grinds.

    I use a 3 in 1 coffee packet, takes a while to master.
    1. Heat water, make sure its boiling before turning off the heat.
    2. Get a mug, DO NOT use a plastic cup.
    3. Pour hot water IN the mug.
    4. The tricky part is to tear the 3 in 1 coffee packet on the part where it says tear here. Make sure you tear in a straight line.
    5. Pour the coffee IN the mug with the hot water.
    6. Stir very slowly, 7 clockwise stirring should do it, anything more and the coffee gets cold.
    7. Put in the freezer, ice coffee is better.

    Great video! However, I think you may have left out the weight of your coffee is you used.

      Hey mate check the description. I use the grinder as a measurement to get a consistent amount.

      @@DanWhitehead hey sorry! I probably missed that bit out when reading the description. Did not plan to be a hater and critical about. 😂. Am a coffee person myself, just thought of finding out the weight of coffee you use to brew. Would love to travel to Melbourne and enjoy the coffee culture. Heard lots about it!

      Hey Carl I have't. I have tried twice in coffee shops and really didnt like it. Wayyyy to watered down for me but maybe thats the way it was made I dont know anything about it to be honest. I like my coffee strong with a small amount of water which is what a long black is in good coffee shops here. In europe they didnt understand so I would order a double espresso with a little bit of water haha.
