After 10,000 years of waiting it is finally come
DRAMATIC CHORDS
Possibly of all time
Yes but still waiting on decaf vidz too!!!!!
So true. I've never clicked on a video so fast...and now I'm like: gimme more 😂
IT'S HAPPENING!! EVERYONE GET IN HERE!
OH MY GOD IT’S HAPPENING EVERYBODY STAY CALM!!!
Hell.... It's about time.
@@bibliophilecb AAAAAAAAAA I CANT STAY CALM SORRY AAAAAA
I thought I would never see this day!
Ginger, get the popcorn!
At minute seven, you list all of the reasons why it’s so popular with one exception: it’s very easy to clean up.
True!
And its one-second cleaning process makes an amazing 'plop' sound that brings joy to my day.
THIS! The easy cleanup allows me to use it more often.
Yeah, I think of it as French press, without the clean-up mess.
@@jimmackraz2734 where is the clean-up mess with a french press? I just pour in some water, toss it shortly and pour it out of the french press.
i love how you can sit down and talk without many bells or whistles and it's so incredibly engaging
Time for you to also get an aeropress Ali!
Waiting for a review from Ali as well. Detail review on the beans and the brew
Have you go a coffee for study technique Ali, or just buy yours on your drive and not so much at home?
@@teemo2901 he had one and stopped using it cus he couldn’t make good coffee with it.
I didn't even realize I just sat for 10 minutes watching this thing before getting distracted. I have a 1 minute attention span... I think his trick is talking to you like he's telling a secret.
That intro is too good sir, too good.
Oh wow! It certainly is!
Coffee Daddy knows what we like.
Seriously. My first thought as well.
@James did you do the intro or do you have a design team?
I watched 15 times in a row, I think
My partner asked why I gasped audibly, and I have no reasonable explanation that doesn't embarrass me.
I mean, I had to explain to my wife who's not a coffee person what an aeropress was to help her understand why I laughed at the fact that james did the recipe on the box and that's it. Should have released the video on april 1st. Would have been a master class in trolling a community.
My boyfriend, looking at me right now with genuine concern, approves of this comment.
Same
i honestly gasped of astonishment as well
I’m luckily in a universe where I turned my screen to an equally audible gasp with suitable facial expression of being shook
I got my first Aeropress in 2013 and used it almost daily until 2020, at which point I needed to replace a couple parts. The company sells each part individually, which I love. I continue to use it and love it to this day!
That’s a level of repairability that you rarely see in a “throw away” device. That’s fantastic.
@@charper9890 totally!!
The Aeropress of Theseus
🤣haha!
does the plastic degrade?
I got my parents to switch from Keurig to the Aeropress, and they’ll never go back! One of my proudest achievements as a coffee-snob son, haha.

"...and that hurts me inside." That priceless moment is now my favorite of all those that comprise the James Hoffmann videos.
I noticed that one too. I always wait for one of his quirky asides. It's the cherry on top!
After all these years he delivered
*is delivering. FTFY
@@kylejohnson6924 *he delivered (He for the aeropress, not james)
Audience: "we've been waiting over a year for an AeroPress brewing guide"
James: **uses the instructions**
it was a masterful troll :D
For those who are actually annoyed by that, I imagine most aren't, remember it's part 1
He’s a genius.
Video Length: 5s "Read the instructions"
@@thehunterishunted Part 2 comes in two years time...
This man never gives you a fish. He teaches you the mechanics and history of fishing so you can fish how you like.
Isn't that why we love him? :)
“ Coffish “
He gave fish and more.
His voice is so goddamn soothing. Like he's just so calm and measured in everything he says
I feel validated. Apparently, I am not the only one who has a hard time making two aeropress coffees that taste the same.
Same here, and I've been using one for years. Shockingly, I've figured out how to make a surprisingly good cup using a Keurig machine I was recently gifted. It's not as good as the best cup out of an AeroPress, but definitely better than the worst, and very consistent. I use 10.5g of medium roast ground slightly coarser than espresso, lightly tamped, 6oz., strong setting (which is a must b/c it pumps the water through much slower, a little at a time). It took a little experimentation, and a few dumped cups, but I found it to be worth it.
I can’t wait to tell my grandchildren that I was there the day this video came out
That's funny.
I had kids just so I could one day tell my grandkids the story of the day this video came out.
I think we all thought this day would never come!
Didn’t he say something like this is one thing he’d never do?
Hey Michael! Great to see you! Love your channel!
Fancy seeing you here
AEROPRESS FOREVER!
I rewatched the Aeropress Go review just yesterday and chuckled at the part where he promised an Aeropress tutorial would eventually be presented. I was wrong to have doubted him.
When he said that you can press on top of the funnel, he immediately changed my life.
Same here. I had stupidly tossed my funnel because I wasn't using it and I didn't have a space to store it. -_-
The design from the aero press - it looks like the base of a graded cylinder we use in a lab, the plunger from a big syringe and the filter from a vacuum funnel. But then, the inventor is a Stanford professor and might have used the things in the lab.
And yes, I love my Aero Press
It's finally here! This moment will go down in the history books.
Getting quite emotional
I was here. I was here. Taking a screenshot. Lol
I'm a coffee historian and I'm writing it into the history book while watching
I literally gasped when the notification hit. My girlfriend ran back into the room and thought something terrible happened 🤣
I know I was not the only one xd
Same
i was about to brew my morning coffee when i got the notification and I immediately aborted my plans to watch it so i could make myself an aeropress instead.
I yelled “OH MY GOD” out loud and my husband was very concerned lol
Same here 😂
I think by the second or third cup of coffee from the Aeropress you will have figured out how much coffee to water you like to use. To me the coffee tastes as good as coffee from a French Press or a Mocka Pot. However there is one important difference it is way easier to clean and to keep clean. After using mine for a month or so I realised that the coffee that I made at home was better than most cafes served
Everything about this video; the intro, the narrative, the cliffhanger... Top-notch production; I'm awaiting the next episode as I did for Game of Thrones or any of your most highly anticipated shows/movies...
James: makes an aeropress video
Also James: decides not to talk about his favorite brewing method
Also James: puts (Episode #1) in the title
To be covered in parts 2 through 365. Yes, I am expecting one Aeropress video per day for the next year.
HE'S SUCH A TEASE
DAMMIT
@@kylerclarke2689 should have started with Episode 4?
The internet: "James Hoffmann, give us what we want! Give us the Aeropress video! Stop teasing us already!" James: "I'm giving you a month of Aeropress videos instead. So put that in your Bripe and smoke it!" Hahahaha! Love this so much.
“Put that in your bripe and smoke it” omg
Chris H :)
I laughed out loud. Bripe.... Hahaha
This cracked me up. Only Hoffman fans would understand what that means...
Michael Dunigan Ha. Yeah, thought some would get it and get a chuckle.
I love your enthusiasm for coffee and all the detail, yet you keep it inclusive.
James’s videos feel so classic that watching them in 480p almost seems like the authentic experience
Finally.
Time to print out this video frame by frame and decorate my walls with it.
Bravo mate... 😃🤣 class comment
Absolutely brutal to turn this into a cliffhanger series.
he already showed us his technique in his "making a latte without an espresso machine video" or whatever it was called
Hi James - I've had an aeropress for many years. I remember about 8 or 9 years ago shortly after I started a period of work as a barista with Starbucks, we had a breakdown or a flood or something and we had to close the store while we waited on an engineer. I was speaking to the manager about my aeropress, and she said I should bring it in - I happened to have it in my bag so I made her a coffee using one scoop of coffee from the filter grind we had done earlier, half fill with hot water from the bowser, and the inversion method, sitting for about 2min - she loved it and couldn't believe how good a job, such a simple device did. I love mine (though I don't use it as much as I should) -they are definitely worth every penny, and I love that you're donating them to folks that don't have one :)
I live in Oslo, Norway, and Tim Wendelboe is my all time favorite cafe for coffee! They are the best of the best. It's quite expensive, but you get your value in excellence. And they actually make sure to pay the farmers.
The grin at the end that said "Right, you bastards. Now what are you going to moan about?"
Lol so true XD
First donut coffee, then bripe and now he's actually made an Aeropress video but still no technique! Now he's really toying with us.
And then the next video is gonna be:
"I know I said I'd tell you my favourite aeropress technique, but here's some of the World Aeropress Champions' techniques first."
Video after that is gonna be
Understanding Aeropress 1: Ratio
Understanding Aeropress 2: Brew Temperature
Understanding Aeropress 3: Grind Size
Then 6 months after that he's gonna say: "Actually, I have a confession to make, I'm really sorry but... I don't use an Aeropress at home. Here's just a few useful tips I've gathered from my friends."
I love the simplicity of the clean up. I’ve been using my same press for years and years, it was definitely the first try I had at making good coffee 😀
I'm very sensitive to caffeine, so having the ability to make one cup was a definite requirement. I liked the fact that if life got really rough, you could still make a cup of the greatest drink on earth - if you could figure out how to heat water and smash beans. So, it's a piece of survival gear. Appealed to two more criteria I admire: 1.) robust, elegant engineering 2.) bang-for-buck; you can make a good cup without spending a fortune. I was compelled to buy it. Endlessly fun to experiment with.
I’d be careful with aeropress coffee if you’re sensitive to caffeine. It ofcourse differs per recipe, but generally aeropress is higher in caffeine then an espresso
Try decaf (decaffeinated coffee)
You don't even have to heat water, just stir for 60 seconds and get a cold brew.
No fucking way! The numbers have actually worn off my aeropress in the time I’ve been waiting for James to bless us with this video 🙌
Same. I never used them numbers anyway
Same, except the gold numbers on mine wore off years ago as I waited for this video to release. I've been waiting since prior to even knowing who James Hoffman is.
You got the one with gold too, huh? Those numbers died off quicker than the token black guy in a horror movie!
Huh, the blue round numbers on mine are still going strong (but the joke is well-appreciated, lol)
I’m on my second aeropress and the numbers are wearing off this one. Lucky I always brew at around 4.5 cups, or about as much as you can fit with an inverted brew.
Edit: I have one with gold letters
I literally bought an aeropress yesterday and searched for "james hoffmann aeropress" right after. Today you release this. This can not be a coincidence! 2021 is gonna be alright. We're all gonna be alright!
You are probably the only person in this world who waited only one day for this video/series.
Incredible scenes, @gilbertmuller so true
@@gilbycoyote Placed my order on Wednesday April 7th. Video posted April 9th. Aeropress arrives April 10th. Impeccable timing.
So fascinating that the Aerobie inventor, who made walking to Uni an obstacle course worthy of a Japanese game show episode, made an exceptional single cup coffee maker! Thank you James!
Not a coffee geek, but have always loved your videos, because of your story telling and soothing voice : ) so happy you are finally getting around to telling the story of the aeropress!!
I don’t have an aeropress but so many of you people have been looking forward to this video so long I’m still excited just to be a part of this journey with you all
I don't get the hype. I find that I make better coffee with my $5 Melitta Pour Over.
@@user-xg6zz8qs3q It's almost like everything isn't for everyone! Weird! Glad to hear you found your Melitta :)
@@mrkesu I believe that if you don't particularly care for Americano coffee then you shouldn't even consider the Aeropress. Alternatives like the pour over, french press, flair or moka pot might interest you. Heck, I'd argue that most Europeans who consume pod coffee would be better served with a moka pot for convienance and coffee strength.
I've found mine to be quite versatile, it also makes an excellent cup of tea (I know, HERESY!)
and here we all are at the same rabbit hole searching for that magic cuppa joe, its not the goal, its the journey that exciting :)
He never mentioned what year part 2 of this series will appear.
He did literally say “this month”
this series not only inspired me to GET an aeropress, but also helped me develop my own technique that works for my needs! i'm no coffee snob by any means, but i absolutely can't stand below-average coffee. now, coffee is no longer a gamble and i'll always end up with a decent cup that hits the spot, thank you so much
I’m going to love this series! I could listen to you talking about coffee all day
Hoffmann actually dropping an AeroPress video - truly the end times are upon us.
Viewers demanding an Aeropress video for years. Reluctant James Hoffman finally complies. Makes a whole series.
They wanted a brewing guide and he used the instructions 😂
Been using this for the past 10 years. Simple and easy. But I don’t have the delicate tastebuds to differentiate the difference between the brew techniques much so just use it brewing upside down with the piston extended to how much water I want to put in, pour hot water, stir for 10 seconds, put on the filter and cover and flip, push it all out.
At last.. I've been waiting for these for a long time. Thank you.
The aeropress always sounded like the inventor didn't entirely know what he was doing in terms of coffee but somehow created a product that works exceptionally well. What else can I say? People love this product
Like so many of the best inventions. Look at pyrex or teflon. Often the best stuff is invented almost on accident.
I think he gets the idea of what it should be and the physics really well, that's prob why it works as well as it does
WTF..if you LISTEN the inventor YOU CLEARLY KNOW he knew exactly what he wanted by inventing the aeropress
And you all thought it would never happen…
Joking aside - one correction: Aeropress say that the funnel isn’t to be used for pressing into a smaller cup (despite the fact it fits so perfectly). More here: aeropress.com/faq/what-is-the-purpose-of-the-funnel/
If you shake so much that you need a funnel to get the grounds into the aeropress, you need to lay off coffee
Thank you so much for doing this series James. You are the man!!!
I have a thermos with a small opening, the AreoPress will not fit, but with the funnel as an adapter, it fits perfectly. Thanks
I chucked the funnel, the stirrer and the measuring spoon into my recycling bin when I unpacked the box... :(
@@DHT25112819 my hands don't shake but I still occasionally spill when tipping the grounds into the aeropress. I use the funnel -- no point in wasting a little coffee and having to wipe the worktop afterwards.
Thank you so much for explaining the use of the funnel inverted to extract into a smaller diameter cup or smaller thermos. I've been a convert to the Aeropress over the last 3 months, from V60, and wanted so much to use smaller cups at times. Now I can do it. It is an amazingly well thought out product.
The series we’ve all been waiting for
James: "It's somewhere between immersion and percolation brewing."
Me: "It's an immercolater."
🎵 it's time for the immercolator 🎵
Dathings has entered the chat
Last time I was this early, I had time to grind espresso by hand
I sat down with a cup of coffee brewed in an AeroPress, and decided to watch a CZcams video. Please give me the Master Technique®, James. I can't wait any longer.
i think it really effects the taste when its made in a pressure chamber like the sous-vide technique inveted by Joel Robuchon and a scientist whos name i cant recall at the moment. But it is proven that oxidation distrupts the cells spore witch inhibits decay, and overall the pressurized and seal chamber contributes to withhold the aromas of the brew
Comes in expecting one video discussing the Aeropress
A series?! 😱 *Spits out coffee*
Please refrain from wasting coffee in the future videos!
@@m1st3rr33d A spat it out into the soil of my plants. Fertilizer for my friends.
@@giannecarlob3937 Quick thinking.
His "i just did an 11min Aeropress video without getting to a brewing method" smile at the end is so good... and i am really looking forward to rest of the series. Aeropress was my first brewer, inverted usually - and while i use a Flair Pro 2 or a Gina mostly these days, still use my aeropress at times. They really are super flexible devices.
Cant decide which I love more, James’s videos or the comments below. 😊 thanks to everyone. ‘Have a great day’ is now my bye words x
The cleanup is the the astonishing part the coffee is great but shotgunning the entire mess away and rinsing off six coffee grounds is mind blowing
James: releases an Aeropress video
Everyone: you teasing me you naughty naughty
"ARNOLD IS NUMERO UNO" - looking forward to the separate video on that
PUMPING IRON! Cold and calculated!
Thank you for your comments on the AeroPress brewing method. I've been making my own coffee from freshly ground beans since the early 1970's. I know what I like and tend to be skeptical of anything new that is aggressively touted as better. After watching your video, I decided to blow $30 and get an AeroPress. It's taken about 4 or 5 cups to hone my brewing technique with the AeroPress to arrive at what I think is a cup of coffee that's better than what I've been drinking for the last few decades.The coffee this method produces is just, plain and simply, marvelous. It will now be my go-to method for producing a single cup of coffee.

Watching this a year after it was released and I bought the Aeropress last week. It doesn’t mention the funnel because they likely were already phasing it out of production (or at least inclusion with the base package) as mine did not include it. Just the Aeropress, stir stick, scoop, and filters.
I’ll watch this later, in peace and quiet, with a cup of coffee (from my aeropress, of course). This requires my full attention.
That smile at the end. He knows he's toying with us. Devious Man.
Reverse method, two scoops coffee, 90c water to the top, stir once, put filter on then reverse it onto your mug, wait 2 minutes then press lightly and slowly. That makes a great mug of coffee for me (we drink mugs of coffee in Sweden)
What’s the c in 90c mean?
@@TeeMcbee1 90 degrees Celsius I would imagine - about 194 F
Sissy American diluted coffee.
Very excited for this series, love the content James!
I got my first aeropress two weeks ago & have been LOVING IT. Although I don't own a good grinder and have been using pre-ground coffee its still leagues ahead of whatever other technique i've tried in the past.
8:44 oh my god, i was not expecting the "Arnold is Numero Uno" shirt. What a power move.
ahhh i can't wait for episode 2 !
See you in 2022!
I love how you explain in details, calm, funy way. I learn and enjoy watching. Thanks
Yes, Ive had an Aeropress for several years. Absolutely love it, Ive taken it with me on my travels across US/UK/Europe...brilliant, simple, easy to use.
This feels a bit like waiting for Joe Cornish to finally complete his doodle story on the Adam Buxton Christmas podcast! Anyway, proud Aeropress user here. I bought one around 10 years ago as an alternative to bad hotel coffee when travelling, or to brew-up on a long hike but fell so much in love with the result that I started using both it AND my hand grinder as my main coffee machine at home too. So for the past decade or so I've been brewing two to four Aeropresses a day wherever I may be, at home, on a hike, camping, parked at the side of the road on long journeys, even under the Channel on the Eurostar using a flask of boiling water. Sidenote - after posting my own basic tutorial, Alan actually got in touch to chat about photography gear as he's really into it! Looking forward to your anticipated tutorial!
Superb reference re A&J, kudos
This is the PERFECT analogy. Except this video is much more satisfying in its conclusion.
Same thing here. I bought mine for traveling (along with an aero grinder) and now use it daily.
That's awesome. It's interesting that you got it because it's convenient for traveling first. I did exactly the same thing.
Gordon is always asking us to buy him a coffee, hopefully he will do a video with James and he will make Gordon a coffee. LOL
And yeah, I bought my Aeropress for the purpose of combating bad hotel coffee too.
I’ve never clicked on a video so fast
The Aeropress was absolutely my first entry into making better coffee at home and the gateway into specialty coffee ... I had been on tour in 2018 and spent a month drinking truly terrible coffee, and when I got home I decided I needed to start improving my home setup. A friend had an Aeropress and made me a cup, and it was really delicious and sold me. That led me to slowly but surely buying better beans ... trying different hand grinders ... and eventually buying a V60 and a Baratza Virtuoso and starting to watch coffee brewing videos which led me to you! A couple years later and I am very far down the rabbit hole but also making nearly-cafe quality pour overs at home.
Thank you James for finally covering the Aeropress. Like you, I had one of the early blue lettered ones. I thought they were always hard to see. Still quite nostalgic to think of things i once had and let go. Anyway, I use the funnel to brew directly into a thermos. I have no idea what prompted me to try it. Works great.
Finally.. James Hoffman by himself reading us the instructions from the box... Who would've thought this day will ever come
Now that you made an Aeropress video, what are we supposed to put in the comments section!?
Pretend it never came and keep moaning about it?
Aeropress is on my resume: "Adequately brews 4 cups of coffee with 1 smoll Aeropress". So proud
Thats 1 cup for me lol
@@leatherDarkhorse if it's nice coffee i would put it on your resume too. "Quality coffee brewer with rubber plunge boi"
Whatever Square Space paid to sponsor this series, it’s going to be repaid exponentially.
In today's episode, James makes coffee and doesn't drink it. James talks about the AeroPress without talking about the AeroPress. I hope you have a good day.
🤣🤣🤣
This video was "in the works" so long that I thought it was basically your channel's meme.
I'm going to miss the 'where's the aeropress video' comments
@@Eisofice It's the end of an era!
I’m glad it’s out though
I have brewed hundreds of cups of coffee with my aeropress. My favorite thing about the brewer (when I worked at the office) is how capable it is in producing a good cup of coffee pretty much anywhere you can find hot water. With a hand grinder I could make the coffee I wanted fresh in the office without being too much of a bother to other people, and not having to suffice with a Keurig. All the required equipment could sit on my desk or in a drawer.
I've tried a number of methods, but mostly settle for putting in ~16 grams, water off the boil, stir, fill to the 3-4 mark, wait a bit, press, and dilute. I'm not too particular when I make coffee with the aeropress. The biggest factors influencing flavors to me, on a daily basis, are the freshness of the coffee, and the amount of grounds used. After about 5 years I needed to get a new one as the rubber stopper wore down and could no longer hold a seal when pressed. I suppose one improvement that could be made is finding a way for this system to be a "buy it for life" sort of solution, like a Moka pot or La Pavoni.
That all being said, I do get tired of the flavor every so often. I typically brew an espresso drink in the morning, and a more Americano style in the afternoon. I have to switch it up or else my mind seems too get used to a particular flavor profile. After drinking a type of brew for 2+ months, changing the brew type feels like drinking an entirely different drink. Right now, my preferred afternoon brew is from a Moka pot. I find that if I heat the water to the boil, then put it in the pot, it makes some excellent coffee.
Looking forward to watching this series. Love the channel and love the AeroPress.
My best man introduced me to good coffee, and he gave me an Aeropress on my wedding day. We went for a walk to chill before all the stuff, and it rained on us, foiling his original plan to present it to me and brew some coffee on the walk. We got back and brewed up, and later managed to use it at the post-reception on the beach.
It is the brewing method I use the most, offering simplicity or complexity when I want them, and is so easy to clean. There are few things more viscerally satisfying than popping a used puck out, and even just eyeballing I can make consistently good coffee.
The Aeropress succeeds in all areas as far as I'm concerned.
All the people buying an aero press after this video 😂😂😂
Yep that’s me
Ew.
It just became in stock here. I'm guessing it will be sold out later after I check 🤣
Fancy seeing you here, lol. While I’m at it, I recently picked up an old 6x9 Zeiss folder, with only scale focusing (no rangefinder, etc). I think I understand zone focusing, but would you be able to do a video on doing so with one of those cameras? Thanks, love your work!
me the one
Imagine sitting there with James and having to make him a coffee, It would be like having to make Gordon Ramsey a medium rare steak. Not sure what would be more scarey, Gordon Ramsey screaming obscenities or James's suave coolness.
At least you would know where you stand with Gordon 😂
Hooray ... it's finally here!
Heads up: Absolutely do not use the funnel to press into a smaller cup. Using the funnel redirects the downward force of pressing into the cup from straight down where the cup is strongest to pressing outwards which can cause the cup to shatter.
I think the manual recommends you only use "the weight of your hand" to push the plunger down, not actually pressing down with force.
The cup should be fine, and this is actually quite useful if you're using a travel mug which can be rather thin.
"Oh god, it's happening." Immediately I'm hit with the anime intro I never knew I wanted. Top tier editing Jim and team, and an excellent video as usual. Thank you for this boon at long last.
I loved that I could throw it in my go bag for working in remote mine sites, the kind where they kick your bag out of the belly of the plane onto the tarmac and wave you off. Hard to break, cheap to buy, simple to use. Camping, remote work or at home. This little thing is one of the best things I've ever purchased😁
No matter how many Aeropress videos I watch, it never gets old.
He's just toying with us by giving the instructions on the box.
Am I dreaming? Has the day finally come? It's been a dream in our family through 3 generations for James to finally reveal his aeropress video
Lol
Aero press was definitely my intro to 1 cup quality coffee. Just discovered it recently and will never give it up!
I wanna binge watch this series so bad. Looking forward to the next episode!
AHHH ITS FINALLY HERE
There's gotta be more than one perfect technique. 1 drip style, 1 inverted style, 1 its the crack of dawn gimme it now, 1 its 2 in the afternoon and I want a flavor explosion, 1 sunset smooth lower acid chill, etc.
And "That one time that I made perfect one and still try to replicate ever since"?
My guess for the ultimate aeropress technique is: Water first, coffee second. :)
You what m8
I love my Aeropress!! Used every day in my household. Love the coffee it brews. Simple and quick.
