Output interpretation

A balanced 1:16 starting point lands near 22 g coffee to 350 g water.

If the cup tastes pleasant but too intense, move wider next time instead of changing grind immediately.

If it tastes sour or bitter, use the coffee taste diagnostic before changing several variables.

What to check next

  • Record grind setting, drawdown time, water temperature, and taste.
  • Keep the ratio stable for the next brew if the main issue is extraction.
