The Aerobie Aeropress coffee maker is a firm favourite of ours. Great for on-the-go brewing (fitting as it was made by the inventor of the frisbee). Our step-by-step guide will show you the Aeropress inverted method - for full immersion, and maximum flavour extraction.

You Will Need

  • Medium-fine ground Pact Coffee
  • Aeropress
  • Aeropress scoop
  • Aeropress paddle
  • Aeropress filter paper
  • Kettle
  • Timer
  • Your favourite mug

Psst… We use the “inverted” method as we think it produces the best results, so don’t be alarmed if you’ve been doing it differently. Using this method allows the coffee grounds to be fully immersed in the water before brewing, making for a more consistent cup.
