1 Leave in place to allow the coffee to steep. 2  Steeping time will vary depending on how much coffee youâre brewing, but in general, 4 to 5 minutes for a coarser grind, and 2Â½ to 3 minutes for a slightly finer grind is optimal. 3  The finer the grind, the faster the extraction time.
Why AeroPress? AeroPress coffee tastes better because the ground coffee is totally immersed in the hot water, resulting in fast and extensive extraction of the flavour compounds. The AeroPress method shortens brew time to 20-40 seconds, which avoids the unpleasant bitterness created by slower methods.
