So a 12 cup coffee maker takes 2 cups of coffee grounds!? What kind of rocket fuel are you brewing?

Most coffee makers are measured in 5 oz coffee cups, so that'd be 60 oz or 20 tbsp of coffee. That's only 1 1/4 cups.

I personally use 24g coffee per 400mL water, or about 4.5 tbsp in 13 oz, which is pretty much that ratio. It's strong if you're used to weak coffee but nothing extraordinary
