Is that just to warm your mug?
The Aeropress isn't great with dark roasts. I find with darker roasts that its better to use less water and top up if need be. Soft or bottled water is a good thing, and really noticeable in the drink.
The best drinks I get are with light or medium roasts, coarse grind like brown sugar, and steeped for a number of minutes depending on the bean and exact coarseness (between 3 - 10 minutes adjusting according to acidity and bitterness).
