Under-extracted: the water didn’t pull enough out.

Grind a little finer.

Use hotter water, or brew a bit longer.

Bitter, harsh or dry

Over-extracted: the water pulled out too much.

Grind a little coarser.

Shorten the brew time.

Weak or watery

Not enough coffee for the water.

Use more coffee, moving toward 1:15.
