This recipe comes from [[James Hoffmann]]'s [AeroPress video series](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxz0FjZMVOl2858ytsWi9DH8NUKAz4nvl), and is essentially a scaled-up version of his [[Basic Aeropress Technique|ultimate technique]] with ice as bypass. It produces a big cup of icy, juicy [[Japanese Iced Coffee|iced coffee]].
The original recipe yields two cups (~400ml). A single cup version is included below.
For darker roasts, adjust by coarsening the grind, increasing the dose, and dropping the water temperature.
## Single Cup

- **Water**: **120ml** @ **100ºC**
