Alternate Filtration Choice

Question
What grind coffee is best for filter coffee machine with removable mesh filter?(not paper)-morphy richards -older model
Is coffee used for French Press suitable (coarse)
How much coffee to make 1-8 oz. of good medium strength cup of coffee?

Answer
My recommendation is to start at a medium/ drip grind. You will be able to experience the amount of sediments that pass through the mesh of your filter and determine a threshold to your liking. The coarser you grind for a single cup the more difficult it will become to attain a sufficient brew contact time. My suggestion for weight of ground coffee for eight ounces of water is approximately one-half ounce ( 12 to16 grams).

Happy Brewing,
