CHEAT SHEET

Grind 18g of coffee, and bring 200ml of water to a boil. Grind it just a bit finer than sea salt.

2. Rinse your filter and set up your AeroPress so you’re brew-ready.

(Pro tip: Pre-wetting the filter helps it stick in place and preheats the brewer.)

3. Add the ground coffee to the AeroPress. Pour in just 30ml of hot water to bloom the coffee. Stir gently. Let it sit for 30 seconds and enjoy the aroma.

4. Pour in the rest of the water until you reach the top. Start your 1-minute timer.

Use this moment to ponder life, love, or your next cup.

5. After 1 minute, stir gently again. Then press down using around 15kg of pressure to push the coffee through the filter.

6. If the plunge feels way too easy or hard, check your grind—it might be too coarse or too fine.

Make sure your mug can hold 200ml—you don’t want to spill your masterpiece.

Drink. Reflect. Celebrate. Then maybe brew another one.
