Pourover Help

Hey everyone,

I've been getting into pourover and I'm having tough time getting anything that tastes good. I'll put all my specifications down below, but I consistently get this dryness/unpleasantness from the cup and so I then bring the temperature down and/or make the grind coarser and then what I get is still drying and then somewhat dull/unpleasant. I'm hoping someone may be able to help me out. Thanks so much. When I try again tomorrow I'll take a video since I guess something may be off with my technique too.

Grinder: Fellow Ode Gen 2 (I aligned the burrs) around setting 5 (range 4 to 6)

Water: Third wave Medium roast

Beans: House Blend from a local roaster that's regarded as very good in the area

Kettle: temperature controlled, at 196F

Brewer: V60, Abaca Filters,

Recipe: James Hoffman better 1 cup V60 method; 15g coffee to 250g water; drains in about 2 mins 15 seconds (which confuses me bc the video recommends 3 mins but if I go finer it just gets more bitter).

Bambino Plus Cleaning Cycle

Hey everyone, I was running a cleaning cycle on my bambino plus and it went on for a long time (maybe 10-15 mins? Hard to tell) Not sure if that’s normal but it also seemed to be glitching at the end here? You can see the milk temp light flashing up for like half a second in the video I’m posting. This went on for at least 2-3 mins. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
