WHAT YOU NEED

Coffee: Filter Roast /  Espresso Roast  *ESPRESSO FOR EXTRA STRENGTH
Amount: 16g
Grind: Medium-fine
Water: 250ml 

STEP ONE — GRIND YOUR COFFE

Grind your coffee to a medium-fine setting (slightly finer than filter pour over, but courser  than espresso. Out of 10 you want to be around 4 or 5. (1 being the finest, 10 being coarsest). Note: Each grinder is different and requires dialling in.

STEP TWO PRE-WET FILTER, ADD COFFEE

Select a stable good-sized mug. Pre-Wet your paper filter and add coffee to the brew chamber.

STEP THREE ADD HOT WATER

Start your timer, add hot water (95o) to 1/3 full. Give it a rapid stir to ensure all coffee is soaked. Wait 30 secs, then fill water to the top and lock in your plunger seal into the top of chamber leaving it there until time to start pressing.

STEP FOUR — PRESS

Once the timer hits 2:10, start to slowly  press down on the top chamber while  supporting your mug if you need to. Finish  time should be 2:30.

STEP FIVE — ENJOY AND/OR TWEAK 

Enjoy this straight up, or if you opted for the espresso roast stronger option, you may like to add a dash of milk/alt milk. Try finer grind for sweeter more full bodied brews, or courser grind for more juicy, delicate, mellow brews. Play around and enjoy the process!
