Aeropress Iced Shaken Coffee
Welcome back to Bettr Brew! This time, we are featuring Rachel - one of our academy trainers, with the highly versatile Aeropress! She'll show us how she makes an Aeropress Iced Shaken Coffee using our beans from Argopuro in East Java, Indonesia with a natural anaerobic processing method.
The Aeropress is a highly efficient and portable brewing tool that combines both steeping and pressurized infusion. It offers versatility and many ways of experimentation to enhance the quality of a cup of coffee, which no other brewing tool can offer.
Since Rachel will be making iced shaken coffee, she uses a brew ratio of 1:18 to add to the intensity of the flavour of the beans. With this iced coffee recipe, our Indonesian coffee beans were able to showcase their fruity flavour profile and juicy finish.
Here are Rachel's brewing steps for you to try!
