A ratio like 1 to 16 means one gram of coffee for every sixteen grams of water, and different methods favor different ratios, roughly 1 to 15 for a stronger pour over up to 1 to 17 for a lighter drip. Enter how much water you want (or how many cups) and pick a ratio, and this calculator tells you exactly how many grams of coffee to grind and how many grams of water to pour.
