The AeroPress method is a modern classic loved by baristas and home brewers alike.
It combines immersion and pressure brewing, resulting in a cup that’s smooth, rich, and free from bitterness.
Compact and portable, it’s perfect for home, office, or travel brewing — all you need is hot water, coffee, and a few minutes.
🧂 Ingredients You’ll Need
- 15–17 g freshly ground coffee (medium-fine grind)
- 220 ml hot water (about 90–94°C / 195–200°F)
🛠️ Equipment
- AeroPress (plunger, chamber, and filter cap)
- Paper or metal filter
- Spoon or stirrer
- Kettle
- Mug or cup
- Scale and timer (optional)
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Process
1. Set Up the AeroPress
Place a paper filter in the filter cap and rinse it with hot water to remove any paper taste.
Attach the cap to the brewing chamber and set the AeroPress directly over your mug.
2. Add the Coffee
Add 15–17 grams of medium-fine ground coffee into the chamber.
Shake gently to level the grounds.
3. Pour Hot Water
Pour 220 ml of hot water into the chamber, saturating all the grounds evenly.
Start your timer as soon as you begin pouring.
4. Stir and Steep
Use the AeroPress stirrer (or a spoon) to stir the slurry for about 10 seconds.
Let the coffee steep for 1–1.5 minutes for a balanced extraction.
5. Press the Coffee
Insert the plunger and gently press down with steady pressure.
You should hear a soft hiss at the end — that’s when all the liquid has been extracted.
The total press time should take 20–30 seconds.
6. Serve and Enjoy
Your AeroPress coffee is ready!
Drink it black for a clean taste, or add milk or water for a longer cup.
Cleanup is easy — just pop out the used coffee puck and rinse the AeroPress.
💡 Tips for the Perfect AeroPress Coffee
- Use freshly roasted beans for the best aroma.
- Try different ratios — 1:15 for strong, 1:17 for mild coffee.
- Use filtered water to highlight natural sweetness.
- Press gently — too much force can create bitterness.
- For a brighter flavor, reduce steeping time slightly.
