Another thing, how long are you letting it steep? I usually go 3 - 4 minutes, sometimes depending on circumstances maybe 10. I find that when I get sidetracked and don't come back to press until 15 minutes or so that there is some unwanted bitterness and off flavors to be had.

Mind you I usually drink it anyway, I only dump out and start over maybe 2, 3 times a year.
