An Aeropress cannot produce true espresso because it does not generate enough pressure (9 bars). However, using a fine grind with less water, you can make a concentrated, espresso-style brew. Dilute it with water or milk for an Americano or latte-like drink.
Use a medium-fine grind (table salt size) for Aeropress. For the classic method, go slightly coarser; for the inverted method, slightly finer. Brew time ranges from 1-2 minutes. The Aeropress is very forgiving, so feel free to experiment with different grind sizes.
Each Aeropress brew uses 15-18 grams of coffee, so 1 KG yields approximately 55-67 brews. At 2 cups per day, it lasts about one month.
1 kilogram of Aeropress coffee is a medium-ground specialty coffee tailored for the versatile Aeropress brewer. Its moderate grind size suits the Aeropress's rapid 1-2 minute immersion-pressure cycle, yielding a rich yet clean cup that can range from espresso-like to filter-style depending on your recipe.
Each Aeropress brew uses 12-18 grams of coffee, so a 1 kg bag yields roughly 55-80 brews. Even at two Aeropresses a day, that is at least 4 weeks of supply.
The Aeropress grind sits between filter and espresso — a medium fineness that provides enough extraction in the brewer's short contact time. The same grind works for both the classic upright method and the inverted technique, giving you recipe flexibility without worrying about particle size.
The Aeropress's greatest strength is versatility, and a 1 kg bag lets you fully exploit it. The same coffee can produce an espresso-like concentrate or a clean, filter-style cup depending on your water temperature, steep time and pressing speed. That variety means a kilo bag never gets boring — you can brew a different recipe every day and still be exploring weeks later.
Try the same coffee at different water temperatures, steep times and methods (classic vs. inverted). Each combination unlocks a different flavour profile.
The Aeropress is portable. Pre-portion your 1 kg bag into travel packets and enjoy specialty coffee wherever you go.

“Aeropress owners tend to be the most experimental coffee drinkers — different recipes, temperatures, steep times. A 1 kg bag gives them plenty of material for that ongoing journey of discovery.”— Fuga Coffee Brewing Team
