Oh and recently I only cold brew. 12 oz large grind, and up to the 3/4 lbs line on the water measurer.

Take the super concentrate and dilute 2:1 and enjoy coffee for a week with each bag

Actually I have no idea how much an 8 ball of anything is. I never figured out the whole grams vs sizes of shit since I never used drugs.

 I use a small spoon that I have been using for damned near 20 years and put one heaping spoon full for every two cups of water.

An "Eight Ball" is generally regarded by street pushers as 1/8th of one ounce, or rounded to 7-grams

by these calculations, 7 grams of coffee per cup of water is some pretty weak "teacher's lounge" swamp swill
go for some of that cop coffee, a full 28-grams per cup just boil it until a spoon stands straight up in the pot

1 tablespoon per 10oz of coffee.

Or just 3/4 of a filter. I like it strong.

A little over a 1/4 coup for a standard pot/carafe

4 cup water line worth of water ( I think it’s 6oz not 8oz each) and 3 very full teaspoons of coffee. I love Columbian and French Roast

This whole thread is more depressing than the COVID one

Most decent coffee says 2 tbps per 6 oz. There's no need to discuss "cups" or "lines". Barbarians the lot of you.

I'll occasionally get out the dadgum scale and measure out 10 grams per 6 ounces. Shame. A pox on this thread.




That said the best coffee that's ever existed was made by my grandfather in a percolator with cheap coffee and he probably eyeballed it. But I can't do that. He was a Navy Cook in WW2, he had the best teaching him.



ETA: in all seriousness how are some of you making anything other than brown water? Anytime someone says they don't like coffee I wonder if they'd wandered into one of these sad pots.

FIFY.

tuck it in yer lip like a man. You can swallow, then chew the grounds, it's all good. Real cowboys chew their coffee.

Best drive on drugs Nature ever made. Coca leaves are a close substitute, coffee is socially acceptable in all good circles.

Don't leave home without it. Now in freeze dry pocket packets.

13 grams to 1.5 oz water. Espresso fact-o!

I use my 5 cup Mr Coffee more often than my 12 cup Mr Coffee, because it's more convenient.
I fill the reservoir to the 5 cup line (I *think Mr Coffee calls 5 ounces of water a 'cup' for product, but i don't remember or care).
I use 5 - 1 tablespoon measures of canned grounds.  Generally Chock full o' nuts, because reasons.

I make between 4 and 6 of those pots a day.

It's good enough.

Depending on how strong I want the coffee, anywhere from 15-18 mL water to 1 gram coffee by weight.  Usually it's around 60 grams coffee to 1 liter of water.

Roughly 21-25 or so grams of beans for roughly 28 or so oz of coffee, I use a pourover with Chemex filters and grind it fairly rough though.

I use a real tablespoon (like for eating, not measuring) and use 1 slightly heaping per cup on the carafe.

Yup, you are better off to add water to strong coffee than to use too little coffee.
