How to use

Add coarsely ground coffee to the carafe according to the desired strength, pour hot water just off the boil, stir briefly, and place the lid with the plunger raised. Let the coffee steep for the recommended time, typically 3–4 minutes, then gently press the plunger down to separate grounds from the brew. Pour immediately to avoid over-extraction and clean the carafe and filter after use.

Recommendations

Use a coarse grind and water heated to around 90–96°C for optimal extraction. Pre-warm the carafe with hot water to help maintain brewing temperature. Rinse the filter assembly after each use and disassemble periodically for thorough cleaning to maintain flavor clarity and device longevity.
