Instructions
Aeropress Brewing Instructions:
Use a fine grind setting - finer than typical pourover but coarser than espresso.
For each batch:
- Add coffee and water
- Gently stir at 2 minutes
- Gently stir again at 4 minutes
- Press at 6 minutes total brew time
- Brew double shots of espresso.
-
For the total g of coffee needed, brew:
- of 40g coffee to 200g water
- 1 final batch using g coffee to g water
- After brewing all batches, weigh your combined coffee. You need exactly g of liquid total. Add cold water if you have too little, or remove some liquid if you have too much.
- You need g of coffee liquid total. This will be split into two equal portions of g for each layer. Allow to cool completely before using.
- Add drops of saline solution to the cooled coffee liquid.
- Add all egg yolks to a ziplock bag and cook, using a sous vide circulator, at 60C for 30 minutes then cool completely. If you cannot use a sous vide, you can either use them raw or you can mix with the sugar and heat in a bain marie to 70C, then quickly cool.
- Mix the sugar and egg yolk using a hand mixer, or stand mixer, at a relatively low speed for 4 to 5 minutes. You should see the mixture increase in volume and begin to notably thicken.
- Add the mascarpone in thirds, each time incorporating on lower speeds for 30 to 60 seconds. It doesn't need to be flawlessly mixed.
- Begin the assembly. Prepare your chosen tray. This recipe presumes you will do it in two stages.
- Pour g of the coffee mixture in a suitable bowl. Take half the Savoiardi. Dunk the Savoiardi only on the non-sugared side. Then turn upside down and place in the tray. Repeat with all biscuits. You should have a little coffee left over. Starting with the last biscuits you dunked, use a pastry brush to add all the remaining coffee to the biscuits in the layer.
- Carefully put half of the mascarpone mixture on top of the biscuits.
- Add the remaining g of coffee to the bowl. Repeat the dunking of the remaining biscuits.
- Add the remaining mascarpone cream.
- Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, ideally 24.
- Before serving dust with cocoa powder.
- Serve and enjoy!
