This might help you:
"I recommend 1 level tablespoon of ground coffee per cup capacity of the coffee maker. This measure will give a strongish brew, for even stronger coffee use rounded or heaped tablespoon measures, for weaker coffee use dessert spoon measures or reduce the measure by 1 cup at a time i.e. 4 tablespoons in a 5 cup capacity coffee maker. Experiment to learn your preference but note that ratios will vary for different coffees and remember, although not ideal, you can always add more fresh boiled water if it's too strong, but you can't make a weak brew stronger.
