title_body: How to make a thick coffee with an AeroPress? I end up with a watery drink and an over-brewed aftertaste
upvoted_answer: The easiest way to make the texture of your coffee thicker would be to increase your brew ratio - use more coffee and less water while brewing.
  Also don't be scared to use higher temperature water, even if the inventor recommends ~80°C water, this is also going to increase extraction, leading to a higher percentage of dissolved coffee in your cup.
