2017 World AeroPress Championship - 1st place

Category:

Paulina 'Panda' Miczka's winning AeroPress recipe from the 2017 World Aeropress Championships in Seoul, Korea.

Even though this recipe uses 35g of coffee, that is for two people. If you want to make it a bit less, use 24g of coffee for 100ml of water, and after pressing add around 120ml of water.

We have a great Q&A with Paula and the recipe that won the 2017 World AeroPress Championship here.

Props to European Coffee Trip (creators of the Aeropress Movie) for this great video!
