Ratio - Ratio Six

My ratio six makes great coffee and has options for different carafes.

Same, imo when i bought it 3 years ago it was basically moccamaster vs ratio 6 And seemed like the ratio made a slightly better cup of coffee But its Chinese made entirely 47 different doodads and electronical bits to fail Vs the tank with quality parts in the important areas

I have a six and unfortunately I do not recommend it. The water spout doesn’t have enough steam power and it ends up dropping most of the water to the back because it comes out too slow. I reached out to support and they just say it needs to be descaled but it’s always had that issue.

Ratio was a massive disappointment for me. The water never dispersed evenly and it always pooled towards the back of the spout.

Ratio 6 owner *(bf of owner)*: Not impressed. Just returned the first unit because paint started peeling off. New unit seems to produce a slightly better cup, but nothing special. Build quality overall is lacking. Okay for a drip machine, but comparing it to pourover in any fashion is a stretch.

If you care at all about hot water plastic exposure, I don’t see any other option but the Ratio 6 (swapping the carafe for glass) or the Ratio 8. (The ratio 6, which I have, also does make very good coffee)

Ratio 4 or 6 is great for me
