Product Description  The Aerobie AEROPRESS is an entirely new way to make coffee that has taken the coffee world by storm. This innovative new coffee maker is like a cross between a French press coffee maker, a manual drip brewer and an espresso machine. The Aeropress can be considered a replacement for a “one cup at a time coffee maker” or a four cup coffee maker (2 mugs). You have manual control over this brewer and it is easy to use, easy to clean, ultra portable and brews some of the best coffee you will ever taste. To understand how the Aerobie brews so well, it is important to understand how it brews. First, water and grounds are mixed together for ten seconds. Then gentle air pressure created by pressing the plunger pushes the mix through a micro-filter in 20 seconds. The total brewing time of only 30 seconds results in exceptionally smooth flavor.
The brew process allows you to control the temperature of the water so you can use the proper water temperature for brewing. Often, home drip coffee makers do not achieve the proper temperatures for coffee extraction and the result can be a bitter brew. With the Aerobie, you boil the water and pour it over the grinds, much like in a French press coffee maker. Also, as in a coffee press, the ground are totally submerged in the hot water for better saturation and even extraction. Finally, the gentle pressure simulates the same type of action that makes espresso and crema coffees so wonderfully creamy. Pressure brewing draws more of the delicious flavor out of the coffee and does it faster so the coffee does not turn bitter.
Because of the lower temperature and short
brew time, the acid level of the brew is much
lower than conventional brewers. Laboratory
pH testing measured AEROPRESS brew's
acid as less than one fifth that of regular drip
brew. The low acid is confirmed by coffee
lovers who report that AEROPRESS brew is
friendlier to their stomachs.
Tasters ranging from professional cuppers and author Kenneth Davids, to coffee aficionados all praise the smooth, rich flavor.
Benefits:
- Using the ideal water temperature
and gentle air pressure brewing yields
rich flavor with lower acidity and
without bitterness.
- Total immersion brewing results in uniform
extraction of the ultimate in full coffee
flavor. Other coffee makers drip hot water
on bed of grounds, over extracting at the
center and under extracting at the edge.
- Micro filtered for grit free coffee – unlike
other press-type coffee makers.
One minute from start to enjoy. The actual
press time takes only 20 seconds
- Makes 1 to 4 cups (1 or 2 mugs) of coffee or espresso
Made in U.S.A.
