I ground up 100g of specialty medium roast coffee and put it in a MrCoffee drip machine at work. I usually do chemex or do french press, but since I was at work and they have a cheap drip machine I thought it would be nice to do a big batch of good quality coffee for everyone, even if the method was subpar.

The coffee started smelling burnt halfway through the batch. That was a lot of wasted coffee. I dont even know what exactly went wrong. I just know half of the grounds were over extracted, and that I had to stir in the wet grounds in the basket to soak all of them. Even the shitty kirkland/folgers coffee they have laying around in the open smells not as burnt (though tasting considerably worse)

Sounds like you ground too fine. In the future please stick to the containment thread /ctg/

Cheap drip machines are inherently flawed because they usually use the same heating element to boil the water and heat the hotplate that keeps the brewed coffee warm. So while you were waiting for the brew to finish, the cofee that had already fallen into the carafe was getting cooked.

Bad coffee machines are too hot. Your grounds for french press should be much coarser than for drip, and could explain not getting it extracted right or water still sitting on the grounds.
