AeroPress Go

Light Roast Immersion

AeroPress Go Aeropress by Gota Team

A gentle upright-immersion method for light roasts on the AeroPress Go: a long steep at 96°C with two stirs pulls floral, citric sweetness and a bright, balanced acidity from the cup.

Notes

Grind slightly finer than for a V60, and use water straight off the boil — light roasts need the heat. The plunger seals the chamber through the steep so it does not drip.
