“I have a fairly strong background in specialty coffee. At the time I was certified at the highest level the SCA had for roasting, and had my own business for 5 years. A lot of my training and experiences was around coffee extraction and getting the most out of the beans that I could. After moving from a good reputable drip brewer to the Ratio Six - I am very impressed with the brew quality. It's very easy to use and looks very nice. I don't think I do anything special - pre-wet/wash filter, level the grounds by tapping the side of the filter holder, then press brew. Any critisism I have seen are really unfounded or maybe even rediculous in my opinion. As with any brewing method, you can't be afraid to play with your grind fineness - If you don't, you are likely missing out on some great flavors. This is a very legit machine and I would highly recomend it!”
“Customer service and communication regarding an issue with the first machine delivered was excellent. After some grind size adjustments I have found the machine to make pour over quality coffee consistently. The flat bottom baskets helps to provide even bean saturation over conical filters to produce a consistent brew. Pre heating the insulated carafe goes a long when to keeping your fresh brew hot longer. I just wished I had waited a little bit longer to order and my ordered would have qualified for a discount.”
“I love ours!
We’ve had it for a little over 3 years now. My only negative, is that I would rather have a heating plate and than the “safety” magnet. Yes it’s nice to know that everything is ready to brew, but after you use the machine once, it’s pretty intuitive and I don’t need to be reminded. I think for us a hot plate would be more beneficial.
Otherwise love it. Worth the penny.”
“I noticed some times after brewing when I take the coffee grounds out, it's covered in excess water and makes a mess. Not sure what I'm doing wrong and how I can prevent this from happening”
Hey Safia! Thanks for the feedback. We recommend going coarser on the coffee ground size, and add more coffee if it's tasting weak. There shouldn't be water on the top of the grounds when you pull it out of the machine. Let us know if we can help troubleshoot further! hello@ratiocoffee.com.
“Very pleased with ratio 6 coffee makers decided to spend a little extra to get a great coffee maker easy to use and also very easy to clean Also got the coffee filter love it. Thanks ratio 6”
“Loving my new Ratio Six! Also bought the Able Basket filter, they make a great robust cup of coffee together. Still working on the proper grind of the beans.”
“Coffee is delicious and extremely easy to use. It also has a very sleek design and I am very happy to add this to my morning routine and put away my old manual pour over set up.”
