I've used both methods. Hold it and step up. As it's only a single shot in each direction, holding it works the fastest. "Never tell people how to do things.

Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1]  More info | May 25, 2013 01:32 | #10 I've wondered about the claims of the suitability of a Melitta filter, so I just did this test...  Next the Melitta #4...  Oh waitaminute, you didn't mean the BROWN one!   <tongue firmly in cheek> OK, a WHITE Melitta #4...  The white Melitta is pretty dang close to a grey card in its WB value!
