“Only a week in but I'm in love with my Ratio Six.. it brews exceptionally good coffee for a longtime pour-over guy. Everything is so thoughtfully designed and well built, everything except - the dang carafe! I'm really surprised that such an elegant and functional machine would fall so short in this area as it's a key feature, and truthfully takes away from an otherwise very pleasant user experience. If the carafe got an update to pour (much) more smoothly then it would be an easy 10/10 for me, but sadly this component needs improvement.”
“I love this coffee maker and it looks amazing in my kitchen. My only complaint so far is the lid for the carafe. It doesn’t come out in a steady stream and splashes all over the counter?”
“Still working out the bugs of making a pot that isn't bitter - I miss my timer (having coffee ready when I wake up)-and for some reason I am not getting the full-bodied taste I was getting with my old coffee maker.”
“It's tricky to find a coffee machine that maintains the quality of a pour-over. The Ratio Six has not only made DELICIOUS coffee, but it's made it easier for those in our office who are tired of me trying to teach them how to make a pour-over. ;)”
“We noticed as the first pot was brewing the incredible aroma of the coffee. Using the same beans we had for our previous coffee maker, the flavor is so much more developed, rich and smooth. We actually signed up for a monthly coffee bean subscription as we are so excited about our morning coffee again. A few weeks in, we love our Ratio Six!”
“Returned as the unit was too large for my countertop. Design was very handsome but the process was more involved than we prefer for an every-morning ritual. Orientation of plug is also limiting depending on how you plan to position the unit. It protrudes from the water reservoir end and is thus an eye sore if the device is observed laterally from popular kitchen vantage points. Coffee quality was good but we struggled with bitterness initially. Be advised, in the unlikely event you return the item, you will have to pay for return shipping. At 15 lbs, fully packed, this will not be cheap. It was an unfortunately expensive way to learn this coffee maker, despite its strong design quality, was not for us.”
