The rule of thumb that we use is a level 1/4 cup of ground coffee for every 5 cups of water, so if I was making a full pot of coffee (42) in this urn I would use 2 cups plus a bit more. We find that 2 1/2 cups of coffee would make it a really strong.

The recommended amount is 2 1/2 cups of ground coffee to make 42 cups. One cup is 16 tablespoons so 2.5 cups = 40 tablespoons.

With good, freshly roasted and ground coffee, 50 grams is too much coffee for a 34 oz french press. I use more like 30 to 35 grams of American or French roast, and I like strongly brewed coffee.

3 tablespoons. I just want to add, this works excellent. I just did it again after months, and it didn't even need it yet, and we go through a lot of coffee. I am really impressed with this product.

To make REGULAR-STRENGTH COFFEES:2 Tbsp for each 6-ounces of water for LIGHT ROASTED coffees; only use 1 Tbsp per 6-ounces of water for MEDIUM ROAST COFFEES; a bit less for dark/caramelized coffees. Your particular coffee beans/roast may differ slightly in proportions. Yes, you have to double or triple the amount to make a concentrate. It takes LOTS of ground coffee to make a standard hot brew; it takes even more to make a cold concentrate. It also depends on the coarseness/fineness of the grind. I use a drip/percolator grind and it is always great in a press. French Press grind is between drip/percolator grind. Have fun with your yummy brewed/steeped/infused coffees!

Yes. Using a pour-over method, I brew 28 grams of coffee using 415 grams of water. This equates to about 2 cups of coffee. Just pour more water over the grounds as space allows.

With a bit over one cup of grounds (10 Tbs) for 5 cups (6 oz) for coffee = 30 oz. of water. So I use a 32 oz measuring cup and let the coffee sit for 2 min then pour in the filter. This varies sometimes we can do it in one shot and other times it takes two pours. Anyway that's just for 5 cups (6oz) of coffee.

One pound of coffee makes makes 2 quarts of coffee concentrate. I run it through filled full once and I do it again with only half of the water using the same coffe. If you are making hot coffee, you would use approximately 1 oz of concentrate in your cup and add tap water before heating in the microwave. That would be 64 cups of coffee in one pound of concentrate. When making cold coffee I use a 2 oz.. measure of concentrate over ice in a large plastic insulated cup with a lid (the kind you get at the store that come in pretty colors), I then add about 2 tablespoons of flavoring that I buy at Bed Bath and Beyond and top that all off with skim milk. All of this depends on how strong you like your coffe and flavorings? In my opinion it is better then the ones you get at the fancy coffee places! You just need to play with the measurements a little. Hope this helps.

TwIt depends on how much coffee you put in the basket. Empty, and measured to the fill line, it holds 28 ounces. But with coffee I would say it is 27 ounces.You can add an ounce or so more water if you want, but it might be a bit messy when you pour. I find if I have guests and need more coffee, I just make it extra strong and dilute with more boiling water. I have gotten 6 cups easily by doing that.

I also have a Cuisinart coffee maker and use 5 tablespoons to make 4 cups. I like it strong and want the coffee to have plenty of taste and flavor= five tablespoons is almost perfect. Play around with different amounts to get what you like.

Hello Kathlene, I am not a Java expert, but I will try to assist. I think a #6 is good for 4 to 6 eight ounce cups depending on desired strength, the amount of coffee you use and how finely ground it is. I think one pour is good for one 6 to 8 ounce cup. A #4 gold mesh filter will work as long as you keep the ground coffee confined to the filter. Hope that helps. French roast, borderline expresso is my wakeup brew.

On the strong cups you can run a cup of strong, and the tree use that for a second cup. ..or use a medium roast coffee and make 14 or 16 ounce cup. Another option is getting the reusable filter and playing with different levels of coffee to get the desired strength

you set the cup size of coffee you want and the strength of the coffee from weak to bold I think theres about 5 cup sizes and 7 strengths of coffee you can set it set by how much coffee you want and how strong you want it. you just have to adjust to your taste ok if you make a carafe of coffee it uses all the water in the coffee maker but you can still set the strength of the coffee

I like my coffee slightly on the weaker side, I don't typically make a whole pot, but I put six scoops to the pot filled to the 9 cup line. I get four good size coffee mugs full. I hope this helps, bc it is a difficult ques. to answer, it all depends on how strong you like your coffee and what size your pot is. :)

there is a chart in the owner's manual for the amount you put in to the amount you get out. Your old coffee maker must have had more power but I'd use the chart in the manual. I'd say about 3/4 in a tablespoon to the amount you put in "cups" of water so 7 tblspns for 10 cups but you will not get 10 cups brewed coffee.

use more coffee. We love it and have had no problems. Make sure you are folding the coffee filters edges like you are suppose to. We use Starbucks coffee and ratio is 4 scoops of coffee/8 cups of water. Coffee remains hot for a very long time in the coffee pot.

I can't swear it but usually sellers use the word "cups" to mean 4-6 ounces. By the way, if used properly, cleaned regularly, (I boil vinegar in if for 30-45 minutes,) it makes great coffee. I have found that if I wish to make a very small amount of coffee, there is a problem because the boiling water will not reach the grounds. Therefore, you have hot water and dry grounds. So there is a minimum amount of water necessary for a brew. I love this thing. Good luck.
