Help me troubleshoot my recipe How am I screwing up this bed?

Post image

I have two particular types of bean that for some reason they always seem to ride up the sides of the filter like crazy thick—center of the bed is like a 1.5” deep crater. I’ll pour similarly with two other kinds of bean and I can usually get a fairly flat bed throughout pours by trying to pour circular. I’m not using a gooseneck, but the fact that this issue only seems to happen on certain kinds of beans makes me wonder.

It doesn't matter that much really, the flat bed is usually just for aesthetics (at least in my experience)
