Why You Should Weigh Your Coffee
Share
Brewing better coffee starts with precision. Here’s why using a scale matters:
✅ Consistent Flavor
Scoop sizes vary, but a scale gives you exact amounts every time—so your coffee always tastes the way you like it.
📏 Perfect Ratios
Get the ideal coffee-to-water ratio (typically 1:15 to 1:17 by weight) for balanced, flavorful brews.
🔄 Grind Sizes
Grind size affects volume. Weighing removes the guesswork, adjusting grind size helps you find your unique sweet spot.
🔧 Easier to Troubleshoot
When things taste off, knowing your exact coffee and water amounts makes it easy to adjust.
♻️ Less Waste
Only use what you need—save money and reduce waste.
Pro tip: You don’t need anything fancy. A basic digital kitchen scale that's accurate to .1g works wonders.
