Brewing Basics:

How to Nail the Perfect Aeropress Coffee

  • Use 26 grams of coffee to 400 grams of water
    (scale the recipe down to 23 grams/350 grams, if you’re using the smaller Aeropress Go) 
  • Add 60 grams of water and shake to allow blooming. Wait 30 seconds. 
  • Then add 140 grams of water. 
  • Press down the plunger one inch. Then twist it to the side and remove it.
  • Insert it again and press down one inch.
  • Keep going until there’s no more water left. 
  • Pour 200 grams of water into the empty chamber. Insert plunger and pull slightly upwards in order to create a vacuum seal. Wait 1 minute. 
  • Plunge slowly — it should take 45-60 seconds. 
  • Enjoy! Now you have enough coffee for two people.

Troubleshooting Like a Pro Barista

  • Weak Coffee: Increase the coffee-to-water ratio or use a finer grind.
  • Bitter Coffee: Reduce the coffee-to-water ratio or use a coarser grind.
  • Clogged Filter: Ensure the paper filter is properly inserted and rinse it before brewing.
  • Leaking Aeropress: Check the filter cap and plunger for a proper seal.
  • Coffee Grounds in the Cup: Use a finer grind or press down on the plunger more slowly.
