Summary
Enter your desired batch size, pick a ratio (concentrate 1:4 or regular 1:8), and get the exact coffee and water amounts in grams, ounces, or cups.
How it works
- Enter your target batch size and choose the unit (cups, liters, or fluid ounces).
- Select a brew style: Concentrate (1:4 coffee-to-water) or Regular (1:8).
- Choose your preferred method: Immersion (steep in jar) or Slow Drip.
- The calculator divides the total weight by the ratio to find the coffee weight, then subtracts it to get the water weight.
- Results are shown in grams, ounces, and cups so you can use a kitchen scale or measuring cups.
Use cases
- Brewing a large batch of cold brew concentrate for the week.
- Scaling a recipe up for a party or meal prep.
- Dialing in a consistent daily single-serve cold brew.
- Converting a recipe between cups, liters, and fluid ounces.
- Comparing concentrate vs. regular brew amounts before shopping.
- Setting up a slow-drip cold brew tower with the right coffee dose.
