Aeropress at Octane?!

Yes!



On a Sunday afternoon at the bar amidst drink making and a sunday afternoon rush. It couldn't have been better. Ross (a beloved regular who brought the aeropress) brewed some of Counter Culture's Cafe San Ramon of Nicaragua and then a bit of Espresso Toscano to contrast. The "crema" that emerged on the surface intrigued me, but disappeared before I could get my mouth on it.

Another brewing method seen and tasted. Several more to go.

Lately I've been messing around with using aeropress filters on the La Marzocco. I've tried them "under" the puck--interesting. I've tried them "over" the puck, and actually like how clean they keep the shower screen. Cleaner espresso? Perhaps.
