French Press

Drip (Autobrew)

Steps:

1. Put water in coffee maker.
2. Put freshly ground coffee inside filter basket and start brewing.
3. After brewing, pour into your favorite cup and enjoy.

Notes:
“Drip” is the most common household coffee maker. We don’t recommend it unless it is a Certified SCAA Brewer. You can get great results with: fresh high quality beans, the correct grind with a burr grinder, and 200 degree filtered water.

Aeropress

Grind: Coarse
Time: 4 min

- Coffee: 20 grams or 3 heaping tablespoons

Steps:
1. Pull your aeropress apart into the open position. Place it upside down with the paper filter on top. Unscrew the top.
2. Put your coffee inside.
3. Start your timer. Add water half way to the top, and stir to saturate the grounds. Then, fill to the top of the aeropress with water and screw on the paper filter top.

Notes:
The specialty coffee industry uses the aeropress as a French press filtered with paper, which makes clean up easy.
