  1. 0:00

    Wet and bloom

    Rinse the paper. Add coffee. Pour about three times the dose and shake or stir once so there are no dry pockets.

  2. 0:20

    Fill

    Top up to the full water weight. Cap it. Leave it alone.

  3. 1:10

    Press

    Press slowly and steadily. If you have to lean on it, the grind is too fine. Stop when you hear the hiss.

  4. 1:45

    Stop

    Aim to finish near 1:45. Dilute with a splash of hot water if you want a longer cup. Do not press harder to get there.
