You can Sherlock Holmes a time signature if you stop guessing and start listening to the drums.
Triplet feel alone does not tell you the meter. Is it 3/4 rolling in threes, or is it four beats that each split into three? The drum pattern answers it. When the recycling lands in groups of four with three divisions underneath, you are in 12/8.
Once you can name the meter by ear, you stop writing by accident. You start placing your beats with intent, and your piece finally moves the way you meant it to.
