Aeropress
A simple recipe that is repeatable, easy to follow, and requires little to no equipment other than what is included with the Aeropress.
Serves 1
- Bring 16 oz of water to boil.
- Assemble Aeropress with filter and place atop mug. Measure 1 leveled Aeropress scoop, whole bean coffee (1/2 ounce).
- Upon reaching a boil, fill up Aeropress to rinse filter and heat mug. Dump water.
- Grind coffee on a medium fine setting and pour into Aeropress.
- Once timer reads 1:30, remove top piece to give a final stir, then replace and slowly press for 20 seconds until you hear a hissing sound (just before hitting the coffee bed).
Note: If brewing takes an excessively long time and the coffee tastes bitter/too concentrated, try using a coarser grind. Conversely, if it finishes too quickly and tastes too weak/sour, try a finer grind. If you are still unsatisfied with the results, adjust coffee amount to taste.
