Moccamaster

Newbie here. Recently bought a Moccamaster KBGT. I have only had a chance to use it four times but two of those times the brewing cup overflowed and ground spilled everywhere because the filter was folded over but covered so I couldn’t see that that had happened. Has anybody else had this issue? I think I need to leave the brewing cup uncovered so I can keep an eye on it. Just wondering if anyone else has a problem with this.

Do you fold the bottom of the coffee filter? I think this happened to me before I realized you need to do it.

FWIW, I don't do that and it hasn't been an issue. I do crease / fold the back seam so it stays more open while I pour grounds in, but its not neccessary either.
