Ingredients

Difficulty: Beginner

  • 15g coffee, medium-fine grind
  • 230g filtered water at 90C
  • 1:15 brew ratio
  • AeroPress and one paper filter
  • Digital scale with timer
  • Sturdy mug

Method

  1. 1

    Set the AeroPress upright on the mug, rinse the paper filter, and add the grounds.

  2. 2

    Pour 230g of water, give it a quick stir, and insert the plunger just enough to seal in the vacuum.

  3. 3

    Let it steep for 1 minute, then press down steadily over 30 seconds until you hear a hiss.

  4. 4

    Stop before the hiss turns to air to avoid dragging in bitterness. Dilute to taste if it's too strong.
