I was very excited to upgrade to a luxury pour over machine, however I am not loving this machine. 

The coffee brewed is good but I would have expected more, especially from the gold setting, for fresh ground and high quality beans. Second, both with the drip basket and #4 filter, grounds get literally everywhere while brewing. I have not brewed a pot larger than six cups. How is this possible for such an expensive machine that it can be beat by a mr coffee?
