Coffee Dose Calculator

Find the coffee needed for your planned water amount.

Enter your amounts to calculate.

Results update as you type. Units are grams unless stated otherwise.

How to use this calculator

Enter your own measurements in the labeled fields. The result is recalculated immediately and is intended as a planning aid for real home brewing.

How to interpret the result

Use the same units: grams of brewing water and grams of dry coffee. Typical recipes vary by bean and preference.

Record the result alongside your actual brew and adjust after tasting. Coffee beans, grind distribution, water and brewer design can all change the outcome even when two recipes use identical numbers.

Start with a repeatable brew, change one variable at a time, and keep a simple note of what improved.

Questions about this tool

Is this a guaranteed perfect recipe?

No. The tool performs arithmetic or offers a starting structure. It cannot measure extraction or taste your coffee.

Can I use a different coffee or brewer?

Yes. Treat the quantities as a starting point and tune grind, water and pouring for your setup.
