Once at the bottom you're ready to serve and enjoy.
Enjoying it now! wow, this blows away a drip maker! Good stuff. thanks! My parents only made 2 pots ever with this! comes with the little plastic spoons and the glas cups as well. sweet...

Im using 1 Tablespoon of whole beans per 3/4s of a cup and grinding that. Is that about right? tastes good, but maybe a bit weak, whats the math there in regards to whole beans to ground equivlent?
