minimum dose size?

I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Anyone actually able to get good coffee out of the high-extraction Tricolate recipes?

Had my Tricolate for over a week and in that time have had nothing but mediocre coffee out of it trying to use any high-extraction recipes where the ratios are 1:20 – 1:22. Part of the point of buying it for me was to use less coffee when I have something nicer on my hands, and I understand using ratios like that will obviously give lighter body, but every cup I brew is either mediocre water or just bad water. I could get a brew time of 5 minutes that tastes like lemon water, or perhaps a brew time of over 10 minutes that tastes like woody water. I’ve tried their suggested high-extraction recipe at various grinds/brew times as well has Lance Hedrick’s method with various grinds/brew time.

I understand I can use traditional ratios and just have the zero-bypass brewer on my hands minus the efficiency, but I am having trouble seeing how people hype this as their daily brewer using these 1:20+ ratios. This is also coming from a person who likes delicate tea-like nordic roasts on Chemex etc. Am I missing something?
