—Rinse the filter, seat the cap, and stand the brewer inverted on the scale.
0:00All the water at once. Stir four times — no more, the paper does the rest.
1:00Cap on and flip onto the cup. Do not press yet; it is still extracting.
1:45Press slowly and evenly. Thirty seconds to the bottom is about right.
2:15Done. A hiss at the end means you pressed past the bed — stop earlier next time.
