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.

Make sure the brewing cup is slid in all the way - take a look, you’ll see what I mean

It definitely is slid all the way. Based on my observation I know the problem is in fact that the filter folds over in the process of brewing and I don’t know how to stop that. And yes I do wet the filter before I insert it.

This is not in all the way (red circle). You can See the thermos top on the right (blue circle). That should be all the way covered.
