@StevePeel 's "recipe" is banging.
18g of coffee, 200g of water, and inverted.
30g of water for 30 seconds, then remaining water added and let it steep for another 90 seconds. Turnover and plunge.
NurseHolliday-
Nice one! I'm getting pretty good results with this method which is very similar.

The only difference is I'm using 16g of coffee and 170g of water and bypassing the 30 seconds of bloom. I had thought the bloom was unnecessary for the inverted method but i'll give that a shot. I'll also up the coffee water ratio.
Any idea of grind size for this? Also any stirring for this method? I'm presuming you stir after the steep?

Is there a forum approved aeropress method? I used to use one daily but fell out of love with it and only going back to using it again after a couple of years.
I've been using the inverted method, grind size between espresso and filter, double filter (rinsed) , 15-17g of coffee. I put in all the water (no pre bloom) give it a good stir and then plunge after 1 min 30.
Originally I was using 200g of water but recently I've been using less water in the brew process and diluting the cup after. It gives a bit more control over the strength over the brew.
I find I'm still not getting the flavour I'd like with it, this is probably why I fell out with it in the first place. But it's such a handy tool I'd really love to be able to nail a good cup with it.
