    Reduce heat to minimum. Then extinguish heat source. Vacuum pulls coffee down through filter.

    Coffee drawn down. Wait 5 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

Light to medium roasts work best to avoid over-extraction. Insert cloth or paper filter into upper chamber, ensuring it is level and centered. The vacuum created when heat is removed pulls brewed coffee downward through the filter.
