Using a decent burr grinder + AeroPress has completely changed my coffee drinking habits in the past six months in that I almost exclusively make coffee at home versus buying a latte somewhere. I also switched from the normal AeroPress brewing method to the inverted method described here:<p><a href="http://www.boldbeancoffee.com/learn/brewing-guide/aeropress/" rel="nofollow">http://www.boldbeancoffee.com/learn/brewing-guide/aeropress/</a><p>In the Bay Area, I've found that Philz has very good beans for the AeroPress. Barefoot and Blue Bottle beans are also good, but they both seem to be a lighter, more acidic roast than Philz and less to my taste.<p>The AeroPress is not exactly effortless (it takes a few minutes of activity to produce a cup of coffee), but there's something profoundly relaxing about the ritual for me.
