Does it make strong coffee? (For you real coffee drinkers ;)

we do not drink weak coffee at our house. We buy a custom roasted blend, and even my coffee snob husband had me buy a second waring pro as a backup spare (we have extremely hard water). Of course, you need to use a fair amount of ground , it's a deep cone filter

We'll if you put enough coffee grounds in it it makes strong coffee :-). It makes extraordinarily hot coffee which I like and I like my coffee a strong. I really like the coffee pot

You will imagine it came from a coffee shop. This makes high end coffee with an economical maker ...

The only way that I have been able to get strong coffee is to use one coffee scoop (3 tablespoons) of coffee to 3 cups of water

For strong coffee, use more coffee or less water or both. For weak coffee, use more water or less coffee or both. I use three measures--~2 rounded teaspoons--to "9-cup" mark or about 3 of my man-sized cups.

Yes- it is best with a coffee maker that has different brew strengths- I set mine on robust for the stronger flavor. It is also better if you use the reusable filter instead of te paper ones

No; it works great in that regard.I've been using the thing every day (at least once a day); mostly for cold brew, but also for hot French Press when I need an extra boost. It's been great.

You can still make coffee with it, but it won't have an even filter of water over the entire container of coffee. I would say yes, to have a great cup of coffee.

Of course! I live in New Orleans and definately don't drink weak brew. The amount (and kind) of coffee you add to the basket, plus the amount of water you pour in dictates the strength of the brew.

That's how I prepare it. I like my coffee strong so I always add a little extra. You may have to play with it to get the right amount depending on how you like it. I hope this answers your question.

I get a good strong brew. I grind my own, coarser than normal drip filter, but normal filter grind will do. You need to use a lot of coffee; one of the supplied scoops per European sized cup, which means two for a mug. To make a whole pot you need eight level scoops. For half a pot you need four generous scoops. Once most of the water is in the top part with the coffee, give it a good stir to make sure it is well mixed. Let it bubble vigorously for a few minutes, longer will make it stronger but more bitter, and then remove it from the heat. Hope this helps, Rob

yes, regular and strong. I might add the coffee is very hot. Excellent coffee

It's a little stronger - especially if you let every last drop into your cup. Works for me - I like my coffee to have "Character".

i love storng coffee and espresso. mine was too strong- but after 3 weeks it is perfect. maybe you are not putting the grind on the correct setting- also- best to use french roast, espresso beans- etc for strong flavors

I like my coffee really strong so I use espresso (fine) grind. I've noticed regular grind makes for a little weaker coffee.

To me it does.not.seem very loud, and it also pretty fast so the noise it does.make is about 20 zeconds for 6 cups of coffee. I am very happy witth it.

You can create a bolder brew with a "strong" setting - I use a refillable adaptor so I brew the strength I want (cheaper, too because I can buy packaged coffee)

Hope you can help me...I want a robust strong coffee and can't find it in the Keurig. I purchased one box from a non reputable dealer and the coffee ruined my Keurig. Are your ok in that regard??

Yes, quite a bit. To the point you will have to clean your grinder every so often. It does make a very robust cup of coffee. If you use a French press it will have oil on the top of your coffee but it isn't bitter. Hope this helps.

It makes a very strong "coffee concentrate" that you can either drink straight (similar to espresso) or dilute with more hot water after brewing. I've found the #2 setting on the maker diluted 100% (adding an equal amount of hot water to the concentrate after brewing) is about 8-10 Oz of good strong coffee. I also drink it straight. If you need a lot of coffee, two #4 presses with 3 scoops of coffee in each followed by 100% dilution again just about fills a standard coffee pot / carafe. Hope this helps.

It's just like a drip coffee maker. You can make it as weak or strong as you like. I use the same amount that I use in our drip coffee maker.
