Grind Size
Your coffee grinder can be set to produce ground coffee that is coarse (large particles), medium, or fine (powdery). … When the grind size is too fine, it takes much longer for the water to seep through the coffee grounds. So, if your pour-over process is taking too long, your coffee grounds may be too fine.
Why is my pour over coffee weak?
If your coffee tastes weak, you’re probably grinding too coarse, so try a finer grind the next time around. If your coffee tastes too strong, next time use a little less coffee, or just add a bit of hot water to the finished brew to taste.
