Recommendation is 1 coffee scoop (2 tablespoons) per 6 oz but I find that pretty strong.

What is your coffee formula?

I weigh mine.... 55g per liter of water. I also grind my beans 95% of the time, but I use the same measurements if we get ground.

Our newest coffee maker has the cone type filters instead of the basket types. I bought a stainless filter for it. There are little numbers on one side telling you how much for how many cups. I think it is 4-6-8-10-12. The machine also came with a scoop. So the first time I used it I counted how many scoops to get to the 10 mark. It was 9 scoops so that’s what I usually go with.

22 grams water to 1 gram beans. Usually do 16 grams beans and 352 grams water.

I pour in 10 oz of water. Then I pour in coffee until I think it’s about right. I’ve probably made a thousand pots with my coffee maker. At this point an eyeball is all I need.

I have a grinder that I use every morning. I grind based on how much I'm making. If making 10 cups worth of coffee I put grinder on 8. Comes out perfect

Same here, but more like 60-65 grams (3/4 cup of beans) per liter

I use an aeropress on the weekend. Usually 1.5-2 scoops per serving. I add a little more water at the end to dilute a little and get more volume.

6 liberal scoops of coffee and pour water up to the 8 cup notch. Press 'brew'

Same routine every day for about 20 years now. If I drink one cup over this amount, i get the jitters and feel like shite. If i drink one cup under it, i'll have the shakes and feel like shite
