Ah, I was just about to guess that! :lol:

Maybe you could make a top for that funnel that can be pumped to force air, pushing the coffee out.

Make or add an internal, narrower funnel with steeper sides. The exterior would still look great and the internal funnel would allow the grounds to slide down better. Teflon comes in flexible sheets!

Yeah, I though about that also, and I also thought about just getting some non-stick repair spray paint and hitting the inside with it. If that didn't work, I could go with the steeper funnel.
