re: Does anyone have a moccamaster?

I do 75g to 10 "cups" for a full pot. The grind should look like coarse sand. Look up images of moccamaster grind for clarification. I do use the moccamaster filters. I don't pre moisten the filters. I do gently stir as the brewing starts to saturate the grinds evenly. I never get any bitterness. When I first got mine I tried making the grind finer incrementally to try to extract more flavor and only succeeded in making the filter clog up and overflow. I have gotten a couple batches of beans that just would not grind properly or tasted off. I try to avoid dark roast as it's very oily and hard on my grinder.
