What is the ratio of coffee to boiling water?

After the cold brew is done, it depends on how strong you like your coffee. It is between 1:1 and 1:2.

you don't use boiling water in a cold brew, I full the basket about 3/4 then full with cold water and let it sit in the refrigerator over night

I assume you are talking about after the coffee has been cold brewed and you are preparing to serve. I dilute it by half or less. I like really strong coffee! For iced coffee, I don't dilute at all, just pour the coffee straight over ice and add milk.

Four and 1/4 cups or One liter. That places the water level one inch from the top of the kettle. Takes 18 minutes to boil on medium heat on an electric stove.

It all depends on the brand and grind of the coffee and how big the cup is you are using, but usually one heaping tablespoon per cup. The method I see the most is to put the coffee in your boiling water and let it brew for a minute or so, then pour the coffee threw the sock to filter out the grounds. Enjoy!

I'm told by coffee barista's that water should be at least 200 -F to achieve a full body flavor. Unfortunately this machine only heats water to 90-100f.

It depends on how strong I want the coffee. If I'm tried and need a burst of energy I just add 6 oz of water. But, if I want a cup coffee to relax I add 8 to 10 oz.

Well, I don't know about literally boiling, but I pour the water into the French press just off the boil. It then should steep for about 4 minutes before pouring into your cup. Believe me, it's still VERY hot at that point unless you like it hot enough to burn your mouth.

The one problem we have with these is that people use too much water. This is a case where less is more. If you add too much water, it dolutes the chemicals and you don't get any heat. If you add a little too much, it won't get to boiling. So yes, they can get to boiling, but most people add too much water. And it's the water in them that boils. I have never heard of someone using them to boil a larger container of water. Any chemical reaction has a certain amount of potential energy. If that energy is less than the amount needed to boil your quantity of water, your water won't boil. So theoretically you could use several of these to boil a pan of water. But basically, one packet will make you a piping hot 12oz mug of coffee. Enough for stew or a whole pot of coffee? Probably not.

As far as I can tell. I don't remember if I used water that had been boiling, but possibly since I would pour from a hotpot that had just boiled the water. Now I use water from my Keurig--boiling, I would think at the boiling point. This teapot is marvelous. I eat in a community dining rom where everyone loves my little teapot. If something happens to it I will immediately replace if possible.

I went to my tea kettle and poured water into measuring cup about 7 cups full when boiling point arrives you get 1/2 cup less Hope this helps.

I was asked to answer this, but I never did figure that one out. I usually just adjust the amount of coffee or water. Perhaps this is a question for the manufacturer to answer. I do like the fact that this coffeemaker has a thermostat and never burns the coffee, thus the coffee it brews is pretty good.

It depends on your definition of a cup. But for those of us who drink it in a standard 6 - 8 oz. coffee mug you could get away with using a ratio of 1 or 1.5 oz. of ground coffee to 12 or 16 fluid oz. of water, depending on how strong or weak you take it. Flip the switch on the side of the dispersal cone to the lowest flow setting to really saturate your grounds if you brew small batches of coffee.

Is that a trick question? Water boils at 212 deg. F. What matters with the vacuum method is that the water and ground coffee is bubbling together for enough time to extract the maximum flavor. Not the case with pour-over methods or presses.

We have an electric stove. 16.9 ounces of water at medium heat takes 23 minutes for a perfect cup of coffee. This is a nice percolator. Makes a nice coffee smell around the house.

Just like Alan, I pour it directly from the boiling teapot into the press. 4 minutes and you have two perfect cups. I use 1/3 cup coffee ground at the coarsest level on my grinder. Some people use 1/2 cup, but I find 1/3 cup to be right and plenty strong enough.

1 tsp per 8 oz boiling water. Steep 3-5 minutes. I think it tastes much better if I don't let it get too strong. It doesn't hurt to wet the leaves and let them absorb a bit of water while you're boiling the water for brewing. Brew to your personal preference, though.

you don't have to make a full pot. adjust the amount of ground coffee and add just 4 cups of water. The amount of water that comes out of the unit is equal to the amount that is put in.

I use a tight weave cotton cloth, put my coffee in it, rubber band it up and drop it in the boiling water. Works great.
