AeroPress coffee

Question for the coffee experts here, are the 100.00 ish burr grinders decent or is it worth spending more?

For a guy who loves a good cup of coffee but also enjoys the shit hotels and truck stops serve up at 4:00 am.

Definitely . Baratza encore is probably best bang for the buck.

You can get good decent manual grinder for that money. Check 1Zpressor or even a cheaper Timemore.

Another good choice - a bit more expensive though. I have Baratza Virtuoso+ . Zero problems in several years of daily use.

Dumb question. Are the recipes we are all used to simply doubled with the XL? Does the time change?

Should be fun to play with and find out.

If the volume has literally exactly doubled, then yes, the recipes should be scaleable by double as well.

The important bit is to keep your coffee:water ratio the same.

I don't believe the timing would change, no.

Aero Press XL in your future?

There is a method for getting a larger cup of coffee on you tube. Been using it and am very satisfied.
Just keep water coffee ratio correct and you are golden.
Aeropress ++++

I could see it changing depending on bore and stroke of the new press.

I likely will grab one next time I stop by REI.
