Hot water into the top of the chamber (175 degrees f is optimal).
Stir the water and coffee with the included paddle for about 10 seconds.
Insert the plunger into the chamber and gently press down about a quarter of an inch and continue to maintain that pressure for 20 to 30 seconds (gentle pressure is the key to easy aeropressing).

This will result in a double espresso. To make an americano, simply top off the mug with hot water, or add hot milk for a creamy latte. The aeropress can press from 1 to 4 scoops, and each scoop from the included aeropress scoop makes the equivalent of a single espresso or 5 ounces of american coffee. Fill the chamber with hot water to the number corresponding to the number of scoops.
