In order not to make a mistake with the amount of coffee, remember a simple formula: one liter of water requires 60 grams of coffee beans. Thus, it takes 30 grams of beans for half a liter of ready-made coffee. To get a perfect result, never try to pour coffee by eye, even minor errors in proportions lead to a disadvantages in taste. It is recommended to weigh coffee on the before each preparation.

Preparation
Pass a little hot water through the filter in order to get rid of the paper taste. This step should not be skipped with any volume of brewed coffee. The smaller amount of coffee you use, the more important it is to fulfill this requirement.

If your coffee machine is equipped with a nylon filter, it does not need to be spilled with hot water, only thoroughly rinsed after each use.

The time spent on preparing a fragrant drink directly depends on the amount of water. If 250 ml of water turns into coffee in 2.5 minutes, then 2 liters of coffee - after 6 minutes.
And finally, one more useful tip: if you want to lower the speed of water passing through coffee, reduce the grinding, and vice versa.
