Great picture Dan. Once my pot is ready to press I take a spoon and gently lift that cap out of the pot. I get a much cleaner pour.

I started out setting my Rocky grinder at 40 and steeped for 4 minutes. Now I am experimenting with the Rocky at 25 and steeping for 2-3 minutes. I use 195-200 degree water. I find that 4 minutes at this grind over extracts. The reults are very good. The character of the flavors is definitely improving.
