Glossary 2
Immersion
Brewing method where coffee soaks in water for a set time (Aeropress, Clever, French Press). The opposite of percolation, where water flows through (V60, Chemex).
Plunge
Pressing down the plunger (Aeropress) or filter (French Press) to separate coffee from grounds. Pressure and speed affect body and bitterness.
