In the Aeropress, we prefer to use the inverted method for a more even extraction:

- Place the Aeropress upside down and make sure you have a solid connection between both parts as you will need to flip it later

- Add 12 g of freshly ground coffee of medium grind size

- Add 200 g of water just off the boil and stirr well so all the coffee grounds will extract evenly

- Let steep for 2 minutes, then screw on the lid including the paper filter you've wetted before to make it stick

- Hold the Aeropress at the conjunction of the upper and lower part and flip carefully

- Place onto a stable vessel and start pressing until you hear air coming out

- Enjoy!
