How to calculate the right water-to-coffee ratio for consistent brews.

Key Points

  • A common starting point is 1 part coffee to 15 or 16 parts water.
  • A smaller ratio gives a stronger, heavier cup, while a larger one tastes lighter.
  • Weigh both coffee and water with a scale instead of guessing.
  • Change one variable at a time so you can taste what made the difference.

Take notes on each brew and you will find your favorite ratio sooner.
