the Aeropress has been driving me crazy
now it is one of the most popular
Brewers out there in the world people
love this thing and one of the most
requested videos has been how do I burn
Aeropress and I've tried two or three
times to shoot that video but there's a
problem
there's too many ways to burn Aeropress
and this wrote me kind of insane because
in most of my videos what I tried to do
was break apart each of the different
aspects of brewing with an arrow press
to try and explain them a little bit
more so talk about dos talk about grind
talk about brew time talk about stirring
techniques talk about inverted versus
standard brewing but at the end of it I
felt like I was no closer to giving
people some helpful information and then
I had a thought maybe the fact that
there's so many ways to brew with the
Aeropress maybe that's a good thing
maybe that's something that should be
embraced maybe there was something fun
that could be done here and I began to
have a slightly ridiculous idea and that
idea has morphed and through the
prototyping is now a thing it's a way I
hope that people could have some fun
when they brew their press and embrace
the possibilities of the Aeropress a
little bit more because coffee can be a
bit serious and I think one of the
reasons people loved the Aeropress
championship it's now a worldwide event
is that it's not too serious it's fun we
should be having more fun and so what's
in this little bag
yeah I hope is a little bit of fun what
we have here our coffee burrowed dice
designed to the Erebus on each of the
five die you have one aspect of brewing
so with this die in my hand you have
with your brew inverted or or standardin
they're kind of with your blooming or
not and how long you might bloom for so
that's one aspect of the recipe you've
got your brewing temperature yeah I
can't say that there's one perfect
temperature I've had some amazing brings
from arrow presses down at 80 degrees
Celsius and up at 95 Celsius is there a
right answer probably not this is what
you like so the goal here is twofold
have some fun try something new get out
of your comfort space a little bit more
with these five dice few roll them
you'll get one of seven thousand seven
hundred different possible recipes for
an era for us which kind of blows my
mind but that's the maths the only dice
that I think might be slightly
controversial is the one that ties grind
size to brew time and I do believe
they're interlinked and should be
interlinked I think there's no joy
having someone has a very fine grind and
then having to try out a four-minute
steep on that I think that will taste
bad
so I've tied brew time and grind size
together on this one dice and they're
available now they're not very expensive
they're twelve pounds and we'll ship
them anywhere in the UK for that price
but not much more to anywhere else in
the world we hope there will be a fun
little stocking stuffer a fun little
gift for a coffee loving friend or maybe
just for yourself if you love your arrow
press and you're already something
different well maybe these are you able
to have some more fun so there you go
it's a one-off run as usual five dies in
your little bag it will be with you in
time for Christmas they're available now
this is not formally endorsed by arrow
press I should say that this is totally
off the reservation this is just a
little personal project so they're
called coffee brewed iced
they're kind of fun have you enjoy them
