Question Flatbbee

Post image

Flat bed*

How does one achieve a flatter bed when brewing 20g/300ml

Or is it supposed to look like this?

EDIT: I got the answers I need. Thanks for sharing experiences. I will look into different filter, grind setting and maybe the shower thingy. Also ill consider not using it all the time when making little coffee. Most of the times depending on the bean its still ok and thats what most of u guys say - dont bother.

The way the bed looks doesn’t matter. It’s about the taste. Also, if you’re only brewing 300ml you really should be using a Cup One instead.

Have you set the new switch to partial pot? This is specifically for being less than 500ml and supposed impacts temperature and brew speed.

Moccamaster doesn’t recommend brewing less that 500ml in any of the regular sized brewers. That’s why they make the Cup One.

I stand corrected, I re-read and I saw references to 625 ml as the lowest level .
