Aeropress: Quality Coffee in Under 30 Seconds
I’m not a coffee drinker, but when I saw the Aerobie Aeropress coffee maker I was impressed. The Aeropress is a turbocharged coffee maker for people who want their coffee NOW! I’m pretty impatient when it comes to most things and while coffee is great one of the reasons I don’t like making it/drinking it is it takes too long.
The Aeropress shortens the coffee making process by literally letting you inject your coffee into your cup. 6 quick steps and you are on your way to 30 second coffee.
- Put micro filter paper on Aeropress filter cap
- Twist the cap onto the chamber
- Place chamber on top of a cup and add coffee
- Add hot water
- Stir for 10 seconds
- Plunge for 20 seconds
So maybe it will take a little longer than 30 seconds, but from the reviews people say it’s worth it and definitely one of the best tasting cups of coffee you can brew in under a minute. Plus it’s portable so you can even bring it to the office and be that guy/girl who’s too good for the office coffee (or just bring it since your office is to cheap to buy a coffee maker).
You can watch the Aeropress coffee maker in action below:
It definitely gives whole new meaning to a “shot” of coffee in the morning. Oh yeah, if you are worried about running out of filters it comes with a year supply of them when you first buy it so you should be covered.
