This method will yield a totally different extraction. There are so many compounds in coffee beans, and we only want the ones we want (lol sorry about ambiguity, but further details always fall away from me in this). The extraction methods we use are results of how many years? Have we discovered them all? Shirley not!

There is a misunderstanding…the tamping (person squishing grounds into puck) needs only 35# of compression. The 9 bars of pressure (around 125psi) is measurement of the pressure steam builds up as it pushes itself they that puck.

It is what you are applying pressure to. Your weight is distributed to the fluid over that area only.

See Tim’s comment above.

The trick is to use a metal filter and press it whilst inverted till you get the crema forming on top of the Aeropress, then pour this over into your cup before finishing the press whilst upright.

The question was “can the Areopress create creama?” You indicated the answer was yes, but offer no methods other than watching some one else’s youtube video.

Garbage article.

Guessing here, if it is 2.25″ then you will need 918 pounds to achieve the 9 bar. I Like my aeropress but it ain’t espresso.

– grind 3 aeropress scoops of espresso or Starbuck’s Dark French Roast coffee beans (fine)
– rinse/wet a paper filter and then assemble the chamber
– Boil water to 180 degrees with the GatorCoffee Pour Over Kettle
– Lightly wet the grounds and wait 30 seconds (no water should pass through at this point)
– Fill the upright chamber to the 2.5 mark
– Stir 10x
– Slowly press and savor the thick, caramel colored foam oozing out

I tried making crema with Able’s fine and JavaPresse metal filters and just couldn’t do it. I tried using hotter water as well.

Any suggestions?
