The Aerobie Aeropress brews coffee in about 30 seconds. A French press requires about 5 minutes of steep time, and a gravity powered drip maker takes several minutes to complete brewing. The short extraction time ensures a spectacular cup of coffee. Aeropress brews at the ideal temperature using finely ground coffee thereby ensuring only the tastiest coffee goes into your cup. The Aeropress is "grit-free" unlike French presses, there is no sludge in the bottom of your cup.
AeroPress coffee tastes amazing because the ground coffee is totally immersed in the hot water, resulting in fast and extensive extraction of the flavour compounds. The AeroPress method shortens brew time to 20 seconds or less, which avoids the unpleasant bitterness created by slower methods.
As well, the acidity level of AeroPress brew is much less than conventional methods, due to the shorter brew time. In fact, laboratory testing measured AeroPress coffee as having under a fifth of the acid generated by regular drip coffee makers. The end result? Coffee lovers are delighted by the fact that AeroPress brew is more friendly to their stomachs.
