How long do you typically leave between adding the hot water and plunging the aeropress?

Around 15 seconds. This is on the low end of extraction time, official instructions say between 10-30 seconds, although it's really to your preference, and some people prefer a minute or longer.

With drip coffee or french press, you're looking at steeping times around 3 to 5 minutes.
