The SteepShot Immersion Coffee Brewer: Simple, Speedy and Intelligently Made.

We're delighted to introduce the SteepShot, a 1-cup filter coffee brewer that utilises pressure to create quick and consistent cups.

GRINDER SETTINGS:
Baratza Encore: 12
Wilfa Svart: Set hopper so the "SS" of AEROPRESS lines up with the red marker
Wilfa Uniform+: 21
Fellow Ode: 1.5

THE RECIPE:
- 16g coffee, ground a little finer than you would for AeroPress
- 250g soft, clean water

THE HOW TO:
- Add your 16g of coffee to the brew chamber.
- Start your timer and, using boiling water, fill your SteepShot with 250g of clean, soft water using a regular kettle. There's no need to pre-heat the brew chamber.
- Screw on the lid to create a seal and swirl the brewer to mix your water and coffee grounds.
- At 50 seconds, up-end the SteepShot to allow some of the grounds to settle on the filter.
- At 60 seconds, place the SteepShot on top of your vessel and release.

MORE ON THE BREWING PROCESS:
We first became interested in preparing filter coffee inside a pressurised brewer since Gordon Howell won the UK Brewers Cup championship in 2015. Jeremy Challender then won the following year by brewing inside a regular Thermos before decanting and filtering.

That process does produce a really fantastic cup, but is a little slow and messy. The SteepShot solves some of the problems we had experienced brewing coffee in that manner. Developed by Ari Hanolen in Norway, the unique, patented brewing technology permits the brewer to utilise the benefits of brewing in a pressurised environment, whilst keeping the process fairly simple, with clean down being much easier to handle.

I absolutely love my Steepshot, especially for traveling. A fantastic brewer that brings out sweet flavors very well, in my experience.

Interesting device. I'll have to try one.

Informative, interesting, fun review, superbly done

[coffeewithcarl]

Nice and thorough review! I agree with you on most of the points but I would have a hard time recommending the SteepShot over the Aeropress :)

My favourite coffee tool SteepShot ⚡️☕️👌

[nepenthe]

This was very informative. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Great video. Any recomandations on grind setting for manual grinder like the C40 or slim?

[rootttoot]

Great video! Super interesting to hear about the SteepShot. Production values spot on! Would be interesting to hear about who is making these brewers too. Thank you :) ... just saw the price... :o

i hate to change subject but where did you get this striped zip-up sweater james? your review was very well done sufficiently thorough such that i have no questions about the brewer :)

[khanscombe]

Coming from French pressed coffee& tea. How effective is it w/ black tea? Can you recommend a quiet manual compact bur grinder?

[sebb]

Hello - what grind setting would you recommend for the niche grinder? Many thanks!

[DougWeaver]

Damn, we could've used the screen for Con'Vid protection! It would've been just as effective...

Kidding, well sorta'. Great video sir, BUYING one for the collection!

The inventor of the aeropress says the filter papers are reusable. James Hoffman did a taste test and could not tell the difference between a cup made with a new filter paper or a used filter paper.

I wonder if a Porlex mini would fit inside the brewer for travel. If anyone watching this knows the answer to that, I'd appreciate being saved the expensive experiment!

Svart grind setting, does that position mean the SS is in line with the red marker?

[vasileiospetropoulos]

Try to do a proper "Greek style" traditional coffee!!!

[returnearthvideochannel]

Superb explanation... unfortunately the most important information was missing. What we want to know is this - which of the three filters produced the least amount of sludge/sediment - and how much ended up in the cup from each filter?
The presenter should have shown the amount of sludge (if any) produced from each of the three filters. Otherwise, there are many portable double wall coffee makers available for half the price of this pressurised gadget.
I dread to think what might happen if a mentally impaired person or young child (hopefully unlikely) ever got their hands on this potentially dangerous device.

More durable than an Aeropress? Really? Have you ever damaged an Aeropress?
