Preparation

Rinse the filter

Rinse a single paper filter and set the brewer up inverted.

Split the dose

Weigh the 18 g out as 16 g and 2 g. The 2 g goes in later.

Step-by-step recipe

0:00 → 0:30Step 1

Brew the first 16 g

Add 16 g of coffee and 100 g of water at 89 C.

0:30 → 0:45Step 2

Stir

Stir for about five seconds.

0:45 → 0:55Step 3

Add the last 2 g

Add the remaining 2 g of grounds on top of the slurry.

0:55 → 1:35Step 4

Stir and cap

Stir five seconds more, draw the plunger up to seat it and cap the brewer.

1:35 → 2:05Step 5

Flip and press

Flip and press over about thirty seconds for roughly 75 g of concentrate.

2:05Step 6

Dilute twice

Add room-temperature water to 115 g, then hot water to 155 g. Taste before serving.

Notes

Won in Athens in 2023 with a trick nobody else was doing: adding the last 2 g of coffee partway through the brew, so a fraction of the grounds gets a much shorter contact time than the rest. The concentrate is then opened up twice, once with room-temperature water and once with hot.
