Unlock The Perfect Brew: Maximizing Coffee Yield For Exquisite Taste And Aroma
Coffee yield, measured in cups per pound, is influenced by grind size, brewing method, and water-to-coffee ratio. Drip coffee makers extract about 16-18 cups per pound, while French presses yield 12-14 cups. Espresso machines produce 20-24 cups, influenced by bean origin, roast level, freshness, and water quality. Understanding yield helps optimize brewing for desired cup count and flavor.
