The Ultimate AeroPress Technique
◉ 11g coffee
- Ground at the finer end of medium, assuming this is light roasted coffee.
- The darker you go the more you may prefer to increase the dose and coarsen the grind.
- Niche Zero: 30 ~ 35
◉ 200g water (brought to a boil and used immediately)
- The darker the roast is, the lower the temperature is (or even down to 90 Celsius for really dark roast)
- Put the filter into the cap. Don't rinse or preheat the brewer (it doesn't make any difference).
- Lock the cap into the brewer and put it onto a cap/decanter
- Put ground coffee into the brewer. Shake it to even the coffee bed.
- Place onto a scale and add all 200 g water, aiming to wet all the coffee during pouring
- Start a timer, and immediately place the piston piece into the top of the brewer, about 1cm in
- Steep for 2 minutes
- Holding the brewer and the piston, gently swirl the brewer
- Wait another 30 seconds
- Press gently all the way (aiming for 30 seconds press time)
◉ Enjoy!
