I have been using aeropress for 2 months 3 times a day.
After second cup I switched to inverted and haven't switched back.
Just so many different brews with the same coffee with inverted with steep time, amount of water, coarse, find grinds.
I have only had the plunger slip out once.
Trick is u dont need to flip fast. I like to meet cup with press while flipping... Coffee barely drips and if it does into cup
I do not pre moisten filter. Usually there are a few drops from rinsing cap.
I do like the paddle unless you put too much water in.
The scoop can be awkward but I put the whole thing in the aeropress and turn to put the grinds in.
Finer grinds are better IMO.
Otherwise increase steep time or add more coffee.
