Brew ratio is a great way to fine-tune your coffee. Many coffee professionals recommend strict ratios, but we believe there's room for flexibility.
-
Start at 15:1 (water to coffee by mass).
- A simple kitchen/gram scale is affordable and a game changer.
- Bookmark our straightforward, easy to use Brew Recipes with gram measurements for various types of coffeemakers.
- Have the kettle in hand and doing pourover? Put 18g coffee in the filter for your 10oz cup. Be willing to adjust depending on the result!
- If you are coffee nerds like us, take notes.
- Lighter Roasts: May taste best anywhere from 10:1 to 17:1.
Higher ratios increase body, but too much can introduce bitterness.
