I bought a new coffee maker but my toddler son ruined the instructions with juice. What correct measurement of coffee should be added?

  1. I usually make my coffee by the cup or two cups, and I use about a heaping teaspoon per cup. It depends on other things too:
    for lighter roasts I minus a little (like columbian)
    for darker roasts I add a heaping teaspoon and a bit (makes it more robust)
    and it depends also on the grind. For finer grinds, I use just a teaspoon and for courser grinds maybe a tsp and a half.
    I love coffee too. Sometimes you have to adjust depending on the brand or blend, so just sample it thru trial and error until you get the best combo!

  2. Yes, that 2tbls should be good for a 4 cup maker….You can adjust it after the first pot….

  3. I always use 3 tablespoons per 4 cups. That should do it!

  6. About 4 teaspoons. Any more and it becomes mud. I got a 1 cupper and I use 2 tspns for a 12oz mug. Any more than that tastes like mud.
