Tetsu Kasuya’s Devil Recipe, AeroPress Edition

Creator:Alan Galura

Tetsu Kasuya’s Devil Recipe for the Hario Switch has been my go-to lately, and I wondered how well it would translate to the AeroPress. After dusting mine off and giving it a try, I was surprised by the outstanding results. This adaptation stays almost identical to the Hario Switch version, with only minor tweaks.

The method utilises the AeroPress as a flat-bottom brewer in the first stage, then cools the water to 170°F/ 77°C for a traditional immersion and plunge in the second stage.
