My friend told me my pour-over technique was way too fast, said it tasted 'sour and weak'. Slowed it down to a 4-minute brew and wow.

Been there. A slower pour is good, but try a finer grind first. That usually fixes the sour taste without making it bitter.

Yeah that "sour and weak" taste is a dead giveaway for under-extraction. Grind a bit finer next time and you'll lock in that perfect timing.
