WHAT YOU NEED
Coffee: Espresso Roast
Amount: 30g
Grind: Coarse
Water: 550ml
*DOUBLE QUANTITIES FOR BIGGER BREW
STEP ONE — GRIND YOUR COFFE
Grind your coffee on a coarse setting. Out of 10 you want to be around 9 or 10. (1 being the finest, 10 being the coarsest). Note: Each grinder is different and requires dialling in.
STEP TWO — ADD COFFEE
Add ground coffee into the bottom of the dry plunger.
STEP THREE — ADD HOT WATER
Start your timer, add about 200ml hot water (95o) enough to completely soak the coffee. Give it a rapid stir to ensure all coffee is soaked. Then immediately fill water to the 500ml total (use a scale and measure grams to be most precise). Place the lid/filter on top of the plunger for heat retention and wait until it’s time to press.
STEP FOUR — PRESS
Wait until 4:00 minutes, and then press firmly at a slow pace, supporting the plunger if it feels necessary. Press until the filter is pushing down the coffee grounds.
STEP FIVE — ENJOY AND/OR TWEAK
Pour into your mug and enjoy.
Espresso Roast adds boldness and works well with a dash of milk/alt milk or diluted with some water if too strong.
Try Filter Roast for a light flavoursome brew.
