Step by step
Aeropress
Step 1
Boil your kettle, ideally to around 95-97 degrees.
Step 2
Assemble the AeroPress by placing a filter paper in the black cap, and screwing into place on the brewer. Make sure to use some of your boiling water to rinse the filter paper.
Step 3
Weigh out 15g of coffee and grind to a medium coarseness and add to your Aeropress.
Step 4
Place your Aeropress on top of your decanter and scales, and tare.
Step 5
Start your timer, and begin pouring 250ml quickly.
Step 6
Once you've poured all your water, stir your coffee, and add the plunger to your Aeropress but do not apply any pressure yet.
Step 7
Remove from the scale and leave to brew for around 2 minutes.
Step 8
After 2 minutes of brewing, begin plunging down slowly until you hear a hissing sound. You want to aim for a 30 second plunge.
Step 9
Remove the cap from the bottom and discard your coffee.
