The AeroPress Brew – Basic Recipes

The AeroPress Brew – Basic Recipe

Grind: Medium

What’s Included:  1) Plunger, 2) Chamber, 3) Filter Cap 4) Scoop, 5) Stirrer, 6) Paper Filter

What You’ll Need To Brew: AeroPress, Kettle, Mug, Pre-Ground Coffee

Prep And Clean Up Time: Less Than 2 Minutes

1. Heat water to 85C-87C using your kettle (if you don’t have a kettle, boiling is fine).
2. Pull Plunger (1) to separate entirely from Chamber (2).
3. Put Paper Filter (6) in Filter Cap (3) and twist Filter Cap onto Chamber.
4. Stand Chamber on sturdy standard-sized coffee mug and add 1 heaping Scoop (4) of store bought, medium ground coffee.
5. Shake gently to level coffee.  Pour water up to #4 marked on the side of the Chamber.  If your mug is clear, you will see some coffee drip through into your mug. This is a normal part of the process.
6. Stir gently for 3 seconds. Then insert Plunger about 1/2 inch into Chamber to create a vacuum and stop the drip through.  Wait 60 seconds.
7. Begin to Press the Plunger, applying gentle constant pressure (do not push too hard) until you hear the hissing sound as the air pushes the last bit of brew through the coffee bed.
8. Remove Filter Cap and place aside. Position AeroPress over sink or garbage bin and push the Plunger the rest of the way through the chamber until you hear the Pop as the coffee bed “puck” pops out.
9. Remove Paper Filter from Filter Cap and rinse.  Hold the AeroPress under fresh water and rinse the silicone plunger end and then store in the AeroPress Organizer Stand. Clean with gentle soap and a gentle cloth every two weeks to preserve the life of your AeroPress.
10. Prepare yourself for the uniquely smooth, rich, full-bodied flavor of an AeroPress 3 in 1 Brew.
