Short: Save time brewing coffee with an 1 cup measuring scoop in your coffee container


For too long I’ve been doing ~12 heaping scoops of a tablespoon to fill up my coffee filter with coffee grounds.

I finally had enough and decided to measure out the coffee grounds required to make a pot of coffee.

Given every indivdual has their prefered strength of coffee, I suggest doing this once:

Do your regular scoops, but instead of putting them in a coffee filter, place it in a measuring cup. I make a full pot of coffee, so I put 12 heaping scoops into a 1 cup measuring cup.

Take note of what this looks like, mine was a slightly heaping 1 cup of coffee grounds.

Now I can leave a 1 cup measuring cup in my coffee container and instead of taking 12 motions, I can take a single motion to add coffee to my coffee filter.
