TROUBLESHOOTING
Coffee is lacking intensity/flavour/tastes flat – grind finer
Coffee tastes salty/a little drying – grind courser
Coffee taking too long to drain – grind courser or replace any circle-pouring pattern to centre
Coffee taking draining really quickly – grind finer or replace any centre-pouring pattern to a circular pattern
Coffee has roast-y flavours – lower water temperature
Coffee is too acidic from hot to cool – increase water temperature
