It's my second week drinking that Four Sisters Donut Shop Blend from Grocery Outlet, and... It's okay...
It's not completely awful, and it's definitely functionally caffeinated, but without a paper filter it's bitter.
With a filter, it does have a sweetness and fruity acidity that's nice.
As if it's made as a filter coffee, which sounds weird, but I suppose it must be possible.
Speaking of paper filters, I started using a mesh filter in my aeropress, and... The result tastes very similar to my French press...
I got a pack of two mesh filters: One 250 microns, the other 200 microns, and the 200 micron filter doesn't let any fines through at all.
I am alternating days between the two, and I have to say the paper filter in the Aeropress makes a huge improvement in smoothness and taste.
try lower water temp and/or a more coarse grind.
