How much coffee do I add when using a 4 cup coffee maker?

Mar 09, 2008 by t r e k k e r | Posted in Other - Food & Drink

I bought a new coffee maker but my toddler son ruined the instructions with juice. What correct measurement of coffee should be added?
thank you all.

I usually make my coffee by the cup or two cups, and I use about a heaping teaspoon per cup. It depends on other things too:

for lighter roasts I minus a little (like columbian)
for darker roasts I add a heaping teaspoon and a bit (makes it more robust)

and it depends also on the grind. For finer grinds, I use just a teaspoon and for courser grinds maybe a tsp and a half.

I love coffee too. Sometimes you have to adjust depending on the brand or blend, so just sample it thru trial and error until you get the best combo!

Surely one would expect a lot from a brand whose name is also its specialty appliance and Mr. Coffee is ready for the challenge. The Mr. Coffee DR4MC 4-Cup Coffeemaker is a basic coffeemaker machine that has features such as a brewing pause-n-serve function, a removable filter basket, dual water windows and a stain resistant warming plate.

This coffeemaker is ideal for the no-fuss caffeine aficionado who wants nothing more than a simple cup of good old plain joe. This coffeemaker sells starting from the very affordable price of $23.

Brewing Pause-n-Serve If you are a busy person who have a lot of things to attend to, this coffeemaker has a brewing pause-n-serve feature that lets you pour yourself a cup of coffee even while it is still brewing. This saves you the time and energy of having to wait for the machine’s brewing cycle to finish before getting your caffeine fix.

Removable Filter Basket

Breaks down easily

In a market that is currently saturated with products that promises to do so many things at once, sometimes a simple machine is even much better. The Mr. Coffee DR4MC 4-Cup Coffeemaker is a basic machine that does what coffeemakers are supposed to do without being too complicated.

However, this is where the quality issue comes in as despite its very affordable price, a lot of users are dissatisfied with this model and say that this breaks down very easily. If you want a quality coffeemaker, shell out a few more dollars and buy yourself something that will really last instead of this one.

Our old one was largely metal but we found the new models to be made of relatively flimsy-feeling plastic. We then looked at the Jura machines but ultimately decided against them due to their high prices, reviews we read that the coffee isn't made hot enough, and also because Jura machines only allow for three different coffee strength settings - weak, medium, and strong. We wanted more choices. Having had experience with these types of machines for almost 10 years, we knew what we wanted: a height-adjustable spout, the possibility to use both beans and ground coffee, a relatively quiet operation, and an intelligent design which would tell us when to refill water, beans, when to clean, descale, etc. The B30 does all that and more.
