BREW GUIDE: OUTLIERS ZAPO

Aeropress:
Classic method
16.5g
Medium-fine grind
250ml water @92 degrees for brewing, +50ml water bypass (to taste)

 

1. Place a filter in the filter cap. Rinse with water, then lock in the aeropress.
2. Weigh 16.5g of coffee beans, and grind medium-fine
3. Dispense the ground coffee in the chamber
4. Pour 35g of hot water over the grinds, and let the coffee steep for 45 seconds
5. Pour the remainder of the water (215g to reach 250g total) slowly
6. Gently insert the plunger part of the aeropress on the top of the chamber, and lift up to create a vacuum which will prevent the coffee from dripping through the filter
7. At 2min, press on the plunger to let the coffee out through the filter. The plunging should take roughly 15 seconds
8. Add water to your brew, to taste. We recommend 50g.
