Years ago I was looking at the winning recipes from the aeropress world championships - first place was 3 mins no stir and such and such a grind, second place 30 seconds and use a boat oar to stir violently, 3rd place some other random thing. My epiphany was: it doesnt freakin matter. Or at least, given quality coffee, decent water and everything within sensible parameters, then you cant go far wrong.

This is the same for most brewed coffee tho. As long as the basics are vaguely right, it’s hard to really go that far wrong. Especially with aeropress.
