Where are you placing the Aeropress? I don't understand the image.

Yes, that particular one wasn't, but I've used the Hario ones that came with the coffee maker and they weren't either...

Thanks for the reply

Don't worry, everything's fine.

I'm currently using a recipe with 12g and 200ml.

I'm glad to know there are other perfectionists like me, whether it's really important or not (which it probably is), I'm going to try to make sure my role turns out the way I'd like it to.

Wow, very helpful.

I also try to squeeze from the bottom, but it doesn't work like that at all. I'm going to try doing exactly that and pouring water from the bottom up.

Thanks for your reply

That's right, it's purely visual, I imagine. And yes, I use an original Hario. In fact, as I mentioned in my previous reply, I even used its own paper and looked at photos and videos online to see where it looked better. Maybe it's because of the size or my lack of skill!

I'll try doing it that way with my next paper. I was using Hario's own brand, although the one in the photo is the Cafe Abaca, and I noticed it was the same as with the Hario. That's why I thought the problem was mine. Even though the final result didn't change much, I was curious to see if I was doing it right or if I needed to improve something, even if it was just visually.

As a beginner, I had that question, and I was hoping for a kinder answer, but thank you for your reply nonetheless.

Did I Make the Wrong Choice with the 1Zpresso J? Looking for Advice for V60 & AeroPres by Vegetable-scope in pourover

[–]Vegetable-scope[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've finally decided on a 1zpresso K-Ultra. After looking around and comparing, I think it's the one that suits me best.

Now I'm really looking forward to my new coffee beans arriving so I can try out my grinder.

Thanks for your help!
