Try a coarser grind, reduce brew/contact time, or use slightly less coffee. Bitterness is almost always a sign of over-extraction.
Grind finer, use more coffee, extend the brew time slightly, or check that your water is hot enough (195–205°F).
Your grind is too fine for a press, or you plunged too quickly. Use a coarser grind and press slowly and steadily.
Too fast (under 20 seconds) usually means the grind is too coarse or the dose is too light, grind finer or use more coffee. Too slow (over 35 seconds) usually means too fine a grind or too much tamping pressure.
Beans lose aroma over time once opened. Check how long ago the bag was opened, make sure it's sealed airtight between uses, and consider sizing your next order to match how quickly you actually drink it, a subscription plan can help match delivery frequency to consumption.
Descale and deep-clean the machine. Mineral deposits and old coffee oils in the reservoir and carafe are a common, overlooked cause of stale-tasting brews.
