Out of curiosity I just checked my brewing ratio. I use 24g of ground beans to 566g of water. In your opinion Ray, is that weak or fairly good?
The SCA's (Specialty Coffee Association) guidelines to achieve the Golden Cup standard is 1:18. One gram of coffee to 18 grams of water. So 24 g of coffee would use 432 g of water. So your ratio would be on the weaker side. But the ratio is just a guide. Use what tastes the best for you. I like strong coffee so I use 18.5 g of coffee for 200 g of water. About twice as strong as yours.
