Review on ☕ AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker with Tote Bag - Rapidly Brews Smooth and Flavorful Coffee - Ideal for Brewing 1 to 3 Cups Per Press by Daniel Jackson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I HATE black coffee!

I am 45 years old and have not had more than a dozen cups of black coffee that I can say I have enjoyed. Too bitter, too strong, too much sediment, too low. I love coffee with additives like cream, milk, sugar etc. And who doesn't love S-Bucks branded drinks with flavors and such. I had every coffee maker known to man. Mocha pots, French presses, drip machines, Keurig and so on. I've never invested in an espresso machine because a good machine costs $$$ and the cheap ones I've tried are no better than my coffee maker. But a balanced cup of black coffee eluded me. Until now! I can't believe I waited this long to try the Aeropress. The very first time I was able to grind a bullet of S-Buck Pikes. Put medium roast coffee in medium ground coffee, add hot water, stir, press and after 5 minutes from grinding to swallowing I had the best flavor. the most balanced cup of black coffee I've ever had. Not bitter, not sour, not weak. I could finally taste everything you read on the packaging like chocolate notes, sweet aftertaste, full body. If, like me, you're struggling to get a great-tasting cup of coffee, I would recommend this article. And it makes so many other specialty drinks too. I've made ice cream, lattes, cold drinks and my experiments are just beginning! Here's a tip, if you're like me and don't want to buy a kettle with hot water, consider this one. Almost every workplace in the world has a Keurig. And I have it at home too. I take my Aeropress and a bag of freshly ground coffee to work. I grab a cup of hot water from Kerig's and squeeze coffee. Perfect temperature, significantly less cost per cup than even the cheapest K cup and 100% better taste! I'm buying a second Aeropress to have one at work and one at home.
