Our favourite method of brewing with the AeroPress is the 'upside-down' method. To do this attach the plunger to the cylinder in the open position and place on a counter with the cylinder uppermost. Then fill the cylinder with hot (not boiling) water, and add 17g of finely ground coffee. Next stir and leave to brew for 3 minutes. After this, place a filter disc in the filter holder and attach this to the cylinder. Finally, turn over and place the AeroPress onto a mug or jug, and press down all the way.

In the box alongside your Aerobie AeroPress, you will find a stirrer, measuring spoon, micro-filters and filter cap.
