After James Hoffmann
The AeroPress is the kitchen-counter coffee maker that won the world by being simple.
Alan Adler, an inventor, made it in 2005. A plastic chamber, a paper filter, a plunger that fits like a syringe. He intended it for camping. The world chose otherwise — by 2010 there was a championship, and by 2020 the AeroPress had its own subculture of recipes and technique videos and inverted-vs-standard debates that could fill a small library.
What the AeroPress gives you is range. You can brew small or large, fast or slow, immersion-style or pour-over-style. You can pull espresso-like shots or full mugs of long, gentle cups. The recipe in this app is the standard — water in, stir once, wait, press — borrowed from James Hoffmann. It is the most repeatable starting point. From there you can wander.
