1. Remove plunger from the press.

2. Add 1 teaspoon of medium to coarsely ground coffee per cup prepared.
3. Pour near boiling water over the coffee grounds. (Fresh coffee will �bloom� as gas is liberated). Keep the grounds wet: stir; wait a minute; stir again.
4. Slowly and steadily push the plunger into the pot, forcing the coffee grounds to the bottom. Don�t wait more than 3 minutes in all; longer steeping will result in over extraction.
5. All pieces come apart for easy cleaning.
