Ingredients
- 17 g medium-fine ground coffee
- 230 g filtered water at 85°C
- 1 Aeropress paper filter, rinsed
Method
- Rinse the filter and assemble the Aeropress on a sturdy mug.
- Add 17 g of ground coffee. Start a timer and pour 50 g to bloom for 10 seconds.
- Pour the remaining water to 230 g and stir gently.
- Insert the plunger at 1:00 and press down slowly with steady pressure, aiming to finish pressing by 1:30–2:00.
- Stop pressing before the hiss to avoid bitterness. Dilute with hot water to taste for a longer cup.
