I follow James Hoffman's instructions:

60~70g of ground coffee per liter of water
pour the water and stir
wait 5 minutes
stir the top to break the "crust" and let some more ground sink
wait 3 minutes
soup the foam away
place the lid but DO NOT press ! Just bring the filter to the surface of the liquid
serve

If he didn't change it after his 8 year old yt video his instructions are definitely different:

no stirring directly after pouring
wait for 4 minutes
then stir
wait for at least(!) 5 minutes

Did you watch his video or follow a written instruction? I noticed you can't rely on those anymore.. My guess is AI slop, that gets it ever so slightly wrong each time, always go straight to the source nowadays.

I watched the video, but maybe I remember wrong ?

The important thing I remember from it was to scoop off anything floating after letting it sit for a few minutes. Probably a good idea to stir before letting it settle.
