      This could shape up to an 8 coffee day. Those are rare, but good days. 6 would still be lovely. Mmmmmmmmm

        Hahah nice!

        Coffee is turning out too weak… not sure if I need more coffee to water ratio? Or up coffee and up water slightly less - thus diluting it less post-press?

          Have you grinded finer? If you fix that up it should take ~15-20 seconds and should be good. I AeroPress as per the box. So stir, let settle, then press (http://aerobie.com/images/AeroPress Instructions for Web L.pdf)

                    Don't bother with inversion to begin with, it's overly fancy and doesn't make a huge difference. Make it as it says on the box and you can't go wrong. Add some good/fresh single origin beans roasted for filter, ground for aeropress (larger than espresso), and you're on your way. Great christmas present - lucky you!

                    Interesting, I much prefer inversion actually and don't find it to be difficult.  I also don't do my ratios as done on the box.

                    Think it, be it.

                              When starting out with all this 'stuff' that's more difficult than paying someone $3 for a coffee, keeping it simple to begin with makes it less confronting, reduces potential frustrations and complications ruining the result. There's a bit of 'stuff' to learn around the process and grind. Inversion adds a few more steps (2), it's a little off the beaten track (not a lot).

                                Agreed. That was my approach to start, followed the instructions. Perhaps because I got familiar with that, trying inversion seemed pretty easy when I tried it and I've stuck since. Now I just play with grinds, temps, blooms, steeps, etc. AP is awesome.

                                Think it, be it.

                                  I'm looking for a programmable drip coffee maker that brews into a carafe. We've had a 10-cup cusinart for years and it's ok, but the carafe isn't working so well anymore and we're starting to look for a new machine or maybe just a replacement carafe. Any suggestions?

                                      Haven't had any coffee since Christmas due to coming down with a bacterial infection. Going to wait another week or so and start back up again. Can't wait!

                                      Edit: finished antibiotics a week ago and feeling a ton better!
