<p>6 oz of coffee by volume is almost 2.5 ounces by weight which is near perfect for the 2.2L air pot. I base this on calibration of grinders to make 2 oz by weight for 60 ounce drip pots (restaurant style). I asked the guy who was calibrating to let me take home the filter he had just weighed. I got home and it was 2/3 cup by volume. 2/3 x 8 is 5.333 oz volume. 2.2L is 74.4 ounces of water (weight and volume). So 74.4/60 x 5.333 is 6.6 oz volume... I'd actually go to 6.5-7.0 ounces…</p>

If you can weigh it shoot for 2.5 ounces.</p> ^ nailed it.tag:www.baristaexchange.com,2013-08-07:1688216:Comment:14791882013-08-07T23:31:44.035ZDanny Heisshttps://www.baristaexchange.com/profile/DannyHeiss

<p>My rule of thumb is always 8g per 5oz water adjust to taste, which is on the strong side for many people. Your bad for not doing your homework 7 years ago! 6oz per 2.2L is ~ 11.2g per 5oz water! Roaster did their job, albeit on the shady side IMO, selling you more coffee.</p>

<p>We use a 3.8 oz per 3 liter pot. The strength is well balanced. It's strong enough in flavor for our coffee lovers, but not offensively strong if you know what I mean. When we first started, however, we where using a much stronger formula. Yes, we had the strongest coffee in town. But...it actually wasn't as enjoyable in the Bunn drip brewer. So we dialed it down, and now we have a better mark up, and the coffee tastes better all around. I don't dial in my brewer based on the…</p>

So we dialed it down, and now we have a better mark up, and the coffee tastes better all around. I don't dial in my brewer based on the coffee I'm brewing. I may get to that one day. I'm not even sure if that's a practice. I'm 3 and a half years new to the coffee world.</p>
