Step 1

Set brewer in standard position on a server. Don't rinse or preheat the brewer (it doesn't make any difference).

Step 2

Place on scales and then add water, aiming to wet all the coffee during pouring.

Step 3

Start a timer, and immediately place the piston piece into the top of the brewer, about 1cm in. This creates a vacuum to stop the coffee dripping through.

Step 4

Wait 2 minutes.

Step 5

Holding the brewer and the piston, gently swirl the brewer.

Step 6

Wait 30 seconds.

Step 7

Press gently all the way.

Step 8

Drink and enjoy!
