Huh?
I have no idea what "inverted" means in the AeroPress context.

The instructions that come with it say filter down (or at least used to). A lot of people (me included) turn it upside down
I have tried the inverted method for a longer brew time but it seems very dangerous and top heavy that way.
I make mine the usual way up on the mug but put the plunger into the top after adding the water. This creates a vacuum and stops the water dripping through the filter. Leave as long as required then push down as usual.

First couple years regular brew only then last February (2017) went to a coffee show and saw someone doing inverted with ~4 1/2 minute steep time. Came home tried that out and it's how i've done it ever since. My wife still does the regular, impatience.

The 4 1/2 minute steep time really brings out the flavor in some coffees.

I am going to try the inverted method at some point. I would like to try and get some great brews with the standard method. I think I need to check my grind size if I stick with the 10 second bloom and 10 second wait, followed by the plunge. More experimentation!

I saw this during a quick read this afternoon and missed what you did there until just now!

I usually invert mine to brew. The other day I poured my water in then realized I had put the plunger in the wrong end. Now there was no way to attach the filter! Fortunately there was a silicone can lid nearby and I managed to hold that long enough to get the filter on after I flipped it. Whew!
