Coffee Brewing Ratio

Hear what James Hoffmann says about Coffee Brewing Ratios

This is a bit more specialised calculator.

I know many out there are interested in coffee, and if you are interested you start experimenting with mixing ratios, brew times, grinds and so on.

The last items I can't really help with, but mixing ratios I can help with.

If you enjoy using parts coffee per litre you can use the first calculator. Enter your preferred strength (I have already added the standard for drip and for French press/Aeropress).

If you are more comfortable with ratio calculations use the ratio version (it starts with 1:16 which is a standard ratio. If you want something else - choose it).

    How much coffee you want to brew. The actual coffee in your cup will be less since the coffee grains will retain about twice the weight of the coffee grounds.

    What is the different types of calculation

    Some prefer to use a mix ratio of grams coffee per 1000 ml of water. If you want to try this, use the top one.

    • Percolation is a common word for drip, either your V60, Chemex or your coffee machine.
    • Infusion is a word for all types of brewing where the coffee and water steep together for a longer period of time before the finished coffee is poured into the cup. AeroPress and French Press are typical use-cases for these.
