Coffee Ratio for Pour-Over
Pick your dripper for a sensible starting ratio, or set your own. Most pour-over methods land somewhere between 1:15 and 1:17 — a lower number means more coffee for the same water, and a stronger cup; a higher number means less coffee for the same water, and a lighter cup.
