Here's a step-by-step guide on brewing coffee with an Aeropress:

1. Gather your equipment:

- Aeropress

- Aeropress filter

- Coarsely ground Gregular Guys coffee

- Hot water (around 175°F or 80°C)

- Timer

- Stirring device

- Mug or carafe

2. Prepare the Aeropress:

- Place a paper filter in the filter cap and rinse it with hot water to remove any paper taste.

- Attach the filter cap to the bottom of the Aeropress chamber.

3. Add coffee grounds:

- Stand the Aeropress on a sturdy mug or carafe with the chamber facing upwards.

- Add the desired amount of coarsely ground coffee into the chamber.

- Use a scale or the included scoop to measure the coffee based on your preference.

4. Pour the water:

- Start the timer and slowly pour hot water into the chamber, saturating all the coffee grounds.

- Use a circular motion to ensure even saturation.

- Fill the chamber up to your desired coffee-to-water ratio, depending on taste preference (usually around the number on the chamber).

5. Stir the mixture:

- Insert the stirring device or paddle and gently stir the coffee and water mixture for about 10-15 seconds.

- This promotes even extraction and enhances flavor.

6. Attach the filter and press:

- Place the pre-wetted filter cap with the filter onto the top of the Aeropress chamber.

- Carefully flip the entire Aeropress assembly onto your mug or carafe, ensuring a tight seal.

- Begin pressing down with steady pressure, aiming for a slow and controlled press.

7. Stop pressing:

- Stop pressing once you hear a hissing sound or when the coffee reaches the desired strength.

- The entire pressing process usually takes around 20-30 seconds.

8. Cleanup:

- Eject the spent coffee grounds and filter by pressing the plunger all the way through.

- Rinse the Aeropress components with water and gently scrub any remaining coffee particles.

- The rubber plunger can be removed for thorough cleaning.

By following these steps, you can brew a flavorful cup of coffee using the Aeropress. Feel free to adjust the grind size, coffee-to-water ratio, and steeping time to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy your freshly brewed Aeropress coffee!
