French Press Math

Well, after some re-evaluating and experimentatin', the combo that works best for me is one tablespon per 8 oz.

So some folks simply don't trust the numbers. But the numbers never lie. I'm dyin' because we were at a party and after several coffee misfirings, I weighed in with the host and detailed it all out.

Result: a freshly made cherry crisp + perfectly extracted UB coffee = smilez around the house.

Folks: simply do the math. I kid you not.

I have problems with tablespoon measurements. Do you level it off? do you heap it? some where in between? Have you ever used a scale to see how much variation that that can produce after a few spoons worth?

Also grind size/extraction time are part of the equation as well.
