“Looks great, coffee tastes great, but lacking in functionality. Prone to coffee dripping inherently when removing filter holder from carafe. When lid is placed on carafe, tends to pour in a sprinkling manner initially as well which leads to spills. Could be refined.”
Hey Chad,
Thanks for the feedback! Please try tipping the carafe over first before opening the pour spout; it should deliver the coffee in a nice stream. If you give the filter holder a slight jostle before completely removing from the thermal carafe, it can reduce and nearly eliminate any drips. Hope this helps!
“The Ratio Six is an elegant piece of machinery. Right out of the box it feels special. It's design looks stunning on my countertop. While I am still working on finding the perfect grind setting to use for the ratio six it continues to make a consistent clean cup of coffee.
Pouring from the thermal carafe takes awhile to get used to but it is worth using as it keeps my coffee hot and fresh for hours.
So far I am very happy with my Ratio Six.”
“After making pourovers at home for 15 years, I finally made the leap into automatic brewing with the Ratio Six Coffee Machine. I own a specialty coffee business and I'm very pleased with the quality of the coffee I can brew, and the build quality of the machine itself is outstanding.”
“Two months in - the Ratio Six turned out to be exactly what I was hoping it would be. I have used a Chemex for the past three years, and have been trying to find an automatic coffee maker that would make comparable tasting coffee. The Ratio Six did just that... The thermal carafe is the best that I've used (including friends and family members coffee makers) - it keep the coffee piping hot and pours very easily. I have measured the temperature of the coffee immediately after brewing and have not been disappointed - it's piping hot (but not too hot). One last perk - the flat filters it uses are cheaper than others.”
“The carafe lid is poorly designed unfortunately. I like everything else, but I can’t pour coffee without it spilling everywhere with the lid on. The only way to pour it is without the lid...”
Hey Jacob,
Sorry to hear about this experience! We have a tip to try - tip the carafe over and let the coffee settle near the spout, then open it up to pour. When spout is opened and the coffee rushes towards it, it can cause some splash-over. Please advise anything else we can do to improve your coffee routine!
