Moccamaster adjustable dripper

thingiverse

You know that strange button on your Moccamaster dripper. The one where you can select closed, half open and fully open. I never seemed to get the "right" amount of drip, so I created a simple fully adjustable one. Works surprisingly well, IMHO. You simply remove the original button, by first removing the spring, then sliding the adjuster into the original button's place. You might need to do some minor filing/sanding, as tolerances are tight. Also drill out the hole for the M4 bolt. I CA-glued the nut in place. Don't use too much glue, as the bolt won't fit if you do. My bolt is M4 that is 30 mm long. It is longer than needed, but it was what I had home. It isn't important. For you imperial peeps, use what you have, that is close to M4. Make sure you wash everything before use, so your coffee doesn't taste CA-glue or metal. :) Edit. Added simple thumb-screw, for M4 bolt head.
