Some water drips through the coffee and filter before I stir and press. Is that OK?Updated 2 years ago

It is normal for a minor amount of liquid (about 2-3%) to drip through prior to stirring and pressing. If a lot of liquid runs through prematurely, remember to shake to level the grounds and pour the hot water slowly. If an excess amount still runs through prematurely, you need to use a finer grind of coffee.
