Making good filter too short.

I have the same model version six cups and I ordered this one for the coffee just for me.
The product is well mounted, but part of that will filter into the base to raise the water is too short and leaves too much water for my taste in the bottom of the coffeemaker.
I have the same concern on version six cups, but much less pronounced. I compared both coffee and the filter is actually more proportionately shorter.
So I'm just an average cup (2 times the size of an Espresso). Given my use of coffee defects do not bother me, but may put off some.
