One method is to put the coffee powder on and then screw on the sieve, and then add water; the other method is to put the coffee powder on and flatten it, then add a small amount of water, let the coffee powder and water fully contact each other, and then screw on the sieve. When pouring water for the first time, you should pay attention to the amount of water. It should be even, otherwise the coffee powder and water will drip into the coffee cup quickly, resulting in more grounds in the coffee liquid.
