      Inversion is tits.

      Rafa, if you think that sounds like science, try watching a video of a siphon process. Looks like Walter White cooking up shards of crystal meth 😃

      Think it, be it.

        ha, at the beginning i'm searching for those "simple" recipes…on the hunt now, so first time using the ap needs to wait a tad longer!

              Aeropress and v60 both rock. I do v60 at home and ap at work. Actually not sure if my rig is a v60 but similar.

              They are different but each worthwhile.

              Think it, be it.

                      ^who is the grinder by, looks so sweet!

                      hey, sry for the late reply…the grinder is nothin special, 25bucks from eBay. the brand is called "Haushalt International" ...really nothing special ^^

                      Should check out if it's a Ceramic Conical Burr Grinder. The different in grinder types/styles is;
                      a)ceramic - it keeps cool and doesn't cause friction/burn the beans
                      b)conical - helps with consistent partical sizing
                      c)burr - these crush the beans and help open the coffee bean up. Blade grinders slice the bean.

                      I hope this is helpful, it does make a taste difference, and I also kind of both love and hate I know this much about coffee :|

                        V60 should be as easy to clean up? Just throw the filter paper in the bin and you're done.

                        I Aeropress in the office, V60 @ home.

                        V60 I make 2.5 FULL sized cups that I drink over a few hours, vs 1 regular size in the Aeropress.

                          Urbs, this is how I brew my v60, it's a little more advanced in technique but it's the best method I've tasted, from the '12 world champion;

                            Neither are difficult to clean up or make, but if you have to clean the v60 and the ranger server each time(which I will because I'm a neat freak) it's a little bit more of a hassle. The Aeropress just gets popped in the trash and a quick clean of the rubber. Also, it's done directly into the mug.

                            Anyways, my point was more about the time it takes for each method. I know you're super zen about the whole process but sometimes I need a quick cup.

                                Ah, Yeah I didn't see the range server in the photo. Totally agree, little more cleaning over all.

                                In terms of timing, I clean the range server after the 2nd cup, not at the time of pouring the first (mind you if I was making for 2 people, I'd be different).

                                Riddle me this, is the time/effort involved in making 2 cups of Aeropress greater than or less than 2 cups with a V60? I'd say overall it's about the same. V60 makes 2 cups @ once, Aeropress you have to repeat the same routine twice….

                                    Yes, making two cups would be about the same.

                                        Rafa, if you have any issues finding a satisfactory mug PM me and I'll ship you one of those Dogwood mugs I posted in the coffee thread.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          Love my burr grinder. Here's it set to 15 for a pourover. Great uniformity.
