AeroPress - no scale required
Category: 
From an Enthusiast
From an EnthusiastCreator: Thor Dekov Buur
I need a recipe I can use when I don't have a scale e.g. at the office or hiking. So I used the scoop as the starting point for this recipe and adjusted the amount of water by placing the plunger instead of using the scale. The recipe uses a ratio of 1:12. Depending on coffee you might need to adjust the placement of the plunger to adjust the amount of water.
📝 Recipe Notes:
- One scoop of whole beans (standard AeroPress scoop) medium roast is ~14 grams
- One scoop of grind beans medium roast is ~12 grams. If your are using pre grind coffee set the plunger between 2 and 3 in step 2.
- I use a Rhino Hand grinder (2022 model) at 4 clicks or Wilfa Svart 6th mark from the right
