    I seem like it’s better to stick with paper filters. I wonder if an aeropress filter is good enough for catching those compounds though.

      I use a metal filter in mine 😬 I wonder if not bringing it to a boil helps, I make mine at 195F/~90C

        While quickly looking into it, I didn’t find relevant information about the effect of temperature, unless you like to extract cafestol using methanol. That will spice up your morning brew!

        However, I did find this graph, that shows the effect if roast level. Dammit, why did it have to be this way. I don’t even like dark roast.

        Regardless, temperature usually has an impact on extraction rates. Higher temperatures make things happen faster and better as long as we’re not talking about dissolved gases.
