No friends, no problem
This recipe produces results similar to my go-to V60 method, but I find it more consistent and easier to control across different beans when using the AeroPress.
It’s a great solo brew—clean, balanced, and perfect for when you're making a cup just for yourself. It fits neatly into one ACME medium taster cup, with a little room to swirl and sip.
Light to medium roasts with fruity or citrusy notes shine in this method.
Update: I recently upgraded from C2 Fold grinder to S3, if you have the same grinder settings are 2.1 on S3. Hope you enjoy!
