The brewing guide

Make it your own.

  1. 01

    Warm the press, then add 30 g of coarsely ground coffee.

  2. 02

    Pour in 500 g of water at 93 °C, wetting all the grounds. Start the timer.

  3. 03

    At 4:00, gently break the crust and skim off the foam and floating grounds.

  4. 04

    Wait another four minutes for the fines to settle. Lower the plunger just to the surface; do not force it down.

  5. 05

    Pour slowly into cups or a carafe so the coffee does not keep brewing.

Pour, stir the crust at 4:00, then skim the foam and grounds. Rest another four minutes, plunge just to the surface, and decant. Clean, sediment-free, and quietly full-bodied.
