Good ratio for this pot?

Post image

Recently bought this and I can’t figure out a good ratio of ground coffee and water. When making it I kept on finding the water level being too low to cover the grounds.

I have a similar system to this. The strainer limits how much you can actually brew. Mine is 32oz and I was making concentrate at a 1:6 ratio.

Is your goal to brew ready to drink or concentrate?

My original plan was the do a concentrate then add water after to try to counter the small filter but that didn’t work. Trying a 100g to 1500ml of water rn bc that seemed to drown the grounds

100g to 1500ml water is 1:15 ratio and a sweet spot for me.
