Purchased a ratio 8 when they were first released about 8 years ago. Great machine no problems other than peeling coating where the water is poured into the machine sent machine back and was recoated. Highly recommended
Wow that's awesome. I didn't realize they offer that. Did you contact them directly? I am having some issues with mine right now that I need to get fixed.
@@BrewtusRoasting Yes I contacted them and they offered the fix. At the time I think it was still covered by warranty. Over the years it started peeling again I'm just ignoring it at this point.
I decided to check the bloom quantity with a half pot and a full pot. The half-pot bloom quantity is ~176g, and I normally use 40g on a half pot, so that's a 4.4X bloom, which is kind of high. On a full pot, the bloom was 212g, and I usually brew with 80g, so that's a ~2.6X bloom, which is totally fine. That said, I've never thought either was way out of whack. That's for the question and for contributing to the conversation without flames!

I will give them a shout. Thanks!
Nice review! Review an old school percolator next! We still love ours.
I will try and work on that. I haven't used a percolator in a long time.
The price! I have the chemex . But as the only coffee drinker I brew smaller amounts.
It is indeed quite expensive! Chemex is awesome!
Is it me or it’s blooming with too much water?
