Description

Fine ground coffee will give you the best results. Try a little more coarse than classic espresso ground. The grounds should be fluffy, but not such a fine powder that you can pinch it and cause a clump. Grounds that are too fine and clump easily can compact too much, creating excessive resistance to pressing. If you find that you aren’t able to press, don’t force it. Pause, give the AeroPress coffee maker a little swirl or a tiny lift of the plunger, then continue. ESPRESSO-STYLE CREMA - When used with a paper filter and dark roast coffee, the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap uses a build up of pressure to create an espresso like crema. Simply attach the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap to any AeroPress coffee makers to stop drip through. For instance, this allows you to have a longer brew time and use coarser-ground coffee like all of our pre-ground medium grind coffee. It was at a Blue Bottle Coffee shop in downtown Los Angeles—one of my first experiences drinking specialty coffee—and I had just had a cup of a fruity Ethiopia extracted with the device. It was smooth and almost creamy, slightly acidic and not at all bitter. … I had never tried anything like it before and desperately wanted to repeat the same experience at home. Our Flow Control Filter Cap is a game-changer for anyone who has ever used an AeroPress coffee maker," says CEO Gerard Meyer. "Users can now experiment with different grind sizes and build up pressure for that coveted espresso-style crema."

Step up your coffee brewing experience with the Aeropress Flow Control Filter Cap. This unique accessory uses a pressure-actuated valve to stop any drips to give you complete control over the making process. Why not try out different combinations of metal and paper filters? Either one or both combined - most importantly, you can achieve that espresso-like crema effectively and explore using coarser-ground coffee. What was really interesting was the difference between the two coffees, both in taste and appearance. The “classic“ filter cap gave its usual slightly oily cup, with more body and more sweetness, but with a lower level of acidity. The Flow Control Filter Cap gave a visibly cleaner cup, with less oily residue and more lively, acidic notes. It was more reminiscent of a percolated extraction than a classic AeroPress cup. FILTER FLEXIBILITY– The flexible AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap can be used with the AeroPress Stainless Steel Filter or AeroPress Paper Micro-Filters (or even both at once) to create a variety of delicious flavour profiles. (Filters sold separately)

Interchangeable Filters - The Aeropress Flow Control Filter Cap can be used with the AeroPress Stainless Steel Reusable Filter or AeroPress Paper Micro-Filters Here's why I decided to try the Flow Control: ability to use paper filters, the Prismo (or at least mine) doesn't always seal perfectly and I've had some annoying leaks, the Prismo is too big for some of my cups.The cap promises espresso-like crema if you use finely ground coffee, but you can also experiment with coarser-ground coffee and use long steeping times, similar as to what many coffee geeks do with the Prismo.

Please bear in mind that not all manufacturers provide correct imagery and we may put a similar or alternative image to the actual product for illustration purposes only.The actual item you receive may differ from that which is displayed, for example the box may have changed or a model may have been upgraded or changed after we have added the product online. The patent-pending Flow Control Filter Cap is an innovative new accessory that uses a pressure-actuated valve to eliminate drip through and maximize control over the brewing process. By attaching the cap to any AeroPress coffee maker, users can now create an espresso-like crema and experiment with a coarser grind of coffee, including pre-ground medium. Best of all, due to the innovative design of the small valve on the cap, the same pressing motion AeroPress users are accustomed to now creates significantly greater air pressure, further enhancing the already rich, full-bodied, and delicious flavor of an AeroPress-brewed cup of coffee. The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap is compatible with both AeroPress Original and AeroPress Go coffee makers; and it can be used with metal and paper filters, together or separately, for maximum brew versatility. The barista-worthy coffee that consumers have long praised AeroPress for, can now be made with even more precision and consistency at home and anywhere its travel-friendly design takes them. Controlled Brewing - Simply attach the cap to any Aeropress coffee maker to stop drip through, no need to use the inverted method! Above all, this also allows you use a coarser-ground coffee and longer brew times before pressing

I’ve been a big fan of the AeroPress since the beginning of my career in the coffee world. I still remember the moment I finally bought one, almost 10 years ago, during a trip to the United States. COFFEE PRESS FLEXIBILITY - Compatible with AeroPress Original, AeroPress Go and AeroPress Clear. Not compatible with AeroPress XL coffee maker.(Coffee press not included.) We do not recommend using the Flow Control Filter Cap on AeroPress Original coffee makers made before 2014 due to a change in material that may affect the fit of the Flow Control Filter Cap. The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap connects to the AeroPress Original, AeroPress Clear, or AeroPress Go brew chamber just like the filter cap that comes with an AeroPress coffee maker. The valve on the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap stops water from dripping through until you press the plunger. This gives you unparalleled control over your recipe - a very important part of making espresso style coffee. The small size of the exit hole also creates higher pressure during the brew process, which helps simulate espresso. Using a fresh dark roast is the best way to produce crema with the new AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap. Espresso Results

After some research, I decided to use a dark roast for this experiment, as it can provide more crema. In my research, some people recommended not to grind too finely to avoid clogging the valve, while others suggested grinding very finely to get a more espresso-like taste. Aesir filters are made from a new type of paper, which comes from a more dense and consistent pulp than what you’d find in most coffee filters.
