AEROPRESS

A full immersion brew that gives you a clean, smooth and sweet cup. It’s portable and lightweight making it easy to brew not only at home but also on the road. Preferable method if you don’t have a scale.

What you need:

Aeropress kit - filter, stirrer, funnel and scoop included
Freshly Roasted Moja Coffee
Grinder
Hot Water
Kettle
Timer
Mug - with a mouth wide enough to fit the Aeropress
Scale (optional)

recommended Measurements:

16g of Moja coffee
(1 Aeropress scoop or 2 ½ tablespoons)
220g water
(or until the No. 4 on the Aeropress)
Grind medium fine

Brew time: 2 minutes

yields: 8 ounces

How to brew:

1. Measure & Grind

Measure out 16g of coffee or about a full scoop of the Aeropress spoon
Grind it to a medium fine grind

2. Prep the aeropress

Place your filter in the cap of the Aeropress and give it a good rinse
Preheat the Aeropress and the mug it will be brewed in
Discard the water from the Aeropress and mug

3. Add the coffee

Screw the basket onto the Aeropress and place on top of mug, basket down
Using the funnel, carefully add the 16g of coffee
Remove funnel

4. Add water

Start your timer and pour hot water over the coffee
Water should be just off the boil or at 205 degrees
Fill Aeropress with water to 220g (if you have a scale) or to the #4 on the Aeropress

5. Stir & Wait

Stir the coffee until the grinds are fully saturated
Place the plunger (rubber stopper) inside the bottom half of the Aeropress and pull up to create a pressure seal
- This creates a vacuum effect that stops the water from dripping while brewing
Don’t plunge yet! Keep it like this until the 1:15 mark

6. Stir & Plunge

At 1:15, remove the plunger and stir once more
Put the plunger back on and gently press down with steady pressure, stopping when you hear the hissing sound
This entire brew process should take about 2 minutes to brew an 8oz cup of coffee
