Ceramic dripper and Paper Filters (100) from the shop, 20 g to 320 g. My drawdown stalls at the end and the cup tastes muddy. Grinder is an entry-level burr grinder on a medium setting.

    The grind size cheat sheet in Dial-in Help helped me with exactly this.

    Try going two steps finer and keep everything else the same. Change one thing at a time.

      Thanks, I’ll try that tomorrow morning.

    Write it down! Logging every change made dialing in so much easier for me.

    Water matters more than people think. Filtered tap or a mineral recipe?

    I had the same thing with this coffee. A slightly longer ratio fixed it.

    Taste it again as it cools. The flaws show up more at room temperature.

    What’s your dose, yield and time right now? Hard to say without the numbers.

    Rinse your paper filter with hot water first. It changes more than you’d think.
