when a "scoop" of coffee is referred to (4 scoops to 8 cups of water), how much is a scoop? I dont have the ratio right yet

I'm not sure about the proportions for the (4 scoops to 8 cups of water). I've always taken a scoop as the round scoop measure sold in stores which is 2 tablespoons. For the Bonavita, I played around quite a bit and ultimately settled on the full tank (up to 8) as taking 6.5 of those scoops (that would be 13 tablespoons). If it is pre-ground (which is usually finer than I would make it, and what is recommended), then I use a bit less.

A scoop of coffee is about 1 tablespoon. You need to use much more coffee then you have described. I use 3 cups of water using a measuring cup (which is a bit more than the 4 cup mark on the Bonavita) and six scoops of coffee. I had to play around with it some and it does change a little depending on what roast I'm using. Enjoy!

I've been using 1 heaping teaspoon for each "cup" marking on the Bonavita, and, for my taste, it's just right.

I think you have it the other way round. Because a common measure of a cup of coffee is considered 6 oz. (8 oz. would overfill the cup) This was an established measure since the 18th century French custom,) Look at all the old Teacups, notice their size.

Just over one cup. I've never really measured it, but will do so now - hold on. 8oz or one cup precisely.

It does not make 8 cups. What that means is 8, 4-oz cups (a European sized coffee). It will make 32-oz at one time. Regular, U.S.-sized coffee cups are about 10-12 oz. each, so if you are looking to make a ton of coffee, you cannot. I generally make 32-oz in the morning and it gives me a cup for my husband and nearly 2 cups for me.

Friend... I use 3 level 1/8 cup scoops of coffee to get the results that I like... You can use as much or little as you wish to get the results for your taste.

It depends on what "cup" measurement the brewer uses. Some are 4 ounces and some 6 ounces, but none are a standard 8 ounce cup. The ratio is 10-12 grams of coffee per 8 ounces or about 235 grams of water. Overflowing is a sign your grind is too fine.

Try about 6 scoops then adjust to your liking. All depends on the coffee and your taste. Take care of your machine, it was the best coffee maker I ever had and is no longer available.

The blue scoop is the equivalent of 1 Teaspoon. I measured this out to make sure.

It makes 2 to 8 cups, but the coffee tastes best when you make at least 4, I've found.

On the left hand side of the machine is a clear plastic water level guide showing 4 to 10 cups. Fill water to level you want to make. Use a tablespoon measuring spoon to measure out the coffee. I use one well rounded spoonful for each cup I want to make plus one "for the pot". Adjust according to the strength you like

I use 2 scoops for 1 large cup of coffee. I also use the Turkish grind from Starbucks.

56 fluid ounces (1.65 liters) of water, 12ounces of coffee, is recommended. That's about 7 cups of water. I use 7-9 cups of water, plus ground coffee. 9 cups fills it to the tip-top!

I believe it is 8 to 10 cups. I have a bun pour over machine, and the decanter say's its 10 cups. I fill that to the top with water, and I set the grinder for 8 cups. then it is your preference to set your grind on what you like. My 8 cups I will use 4 scoops in the coffee grind holder. Then I choose I think the setting is 4 , not sure will have to check. It makes us wonderful coffee.

As any coffee maker add 1 heaping measuring scoop per cup. Most coffee makers have the scoop inside if not 1 heaping tablespoon. Hope this helps.

The measuring scoop that comes with the coffee pot is small...I measured it against the one I had used with my old pot. It is a short Tbsp, vs 1 1/2 Tbsp. So I use my old scoop. Or you could use standard measuring spoons to get the amount you want! Good luck.

I don't use a scoop....I just add coffee to the top of the bottom black band, then add water.....hope that helps! :)
