Making coffee in a Moccamaster
Obviously quite simple, the only thing to keep in mind is grind setting on my Baratza Encore: 18-20. I usually keep 19.

Grind setting on Baratza Encore: 32-40. Should probably start with 35. Coffee to water ratio, in terms of grams etc.: 1:5, for a stronger brew. Mix ice, milk or just water later on as needed. 1:15 for regular black coffee. Leave for 12 hours or so. Use Chemex filter at the end. Also, make sure coffee is fully wet at the start of the brewing process.
Note: 1:16 water to coffee ratio. (I usually do 30g coffee with 480g water.) Grind setting on Baratza Encore: 18-20. Water temperature: little over 200 F. Steps: Wet the filter with hot water and throw that water away. Put ground coffee on the filter. Bloom the coffee with water for ~45s. Use 2-3 times (but closer to 2) the amount of coffee and ensure you wet all the coffee. Slowly pour rest of the water. First, make concentric circles and immerse all the coffee, then finish off with a middle pour. Shake the Chemex just a little and then let the coffee brew. Warm up the coffee cup, using hot water, before pouring coffee in it. The entire process should take 3-4 minutes. Adjust grind setting accordingly.
