Well now, I'm curious: youse guys who don't measure, did you ever? or never?
I think I measured everything for a long time but then slowly gravitated away from the geeking and more towards going with the flow. I think measuring everything is important until you have a good feel for things.
Now I just know what a scoop of coffee looks like for a mug of coffee and I know that once my cup is full it's time to stop filling.
I put 3 scoops in for a pitcher I have that makes 2.75 mugs and once it's full I stop pouring just like the single cup.
I overfill portafilter baskets and level off.
Same scoop that goes into a pourover goes into FP, AP, and Viet brewer.
I don't use the vac pot often enough to eyeball that so I'd have to measure the coffee for that but still don't see myself weighing the water......geeks.
