Long steep AeroPress recipes (4 minutes or more)

A longer steep gives the water more time to pull sweetness and body from the coffee, and it is more forgiving of grind size than a fast brew. Every recipe here takes four minutes or more from kettle to cup; a few are true slow brews measured in hours.

Long steeps often pair with a coarser grind and cooler water to keep bitterness in check, so follow the temperature the recipe gives.
