2X Espresso Filter Serving Sizes:

Our pour over filter can make max 2 cups of coffee at one time, is super easy to use and takes 30 seconds too clean.

How much coffee you should use depends on how much coffee you want and how strong you like it! You also need to think about how much water you’re using and the ratio between coffee & water. 

A good ratio to follow is 1:15 or 1:10 (if you like your coffee stronger), that is for every one gram of coffee you should have 15 grams of water.In the table below we breakdown grams of coffee per serving size and strength. 

If you like your coffee stronger, we recommend adding an extra 10-15 grams of coffee per cup!

Remember these are recommendations, you can make it however you like! Test out different ratios and you may find a ratio perfect for you!
