How much ground coffee does it take to make 3 cups?

Question

What sized scoop should I use just to make regular strength in a drip coffee maker.

Answer 1

I say 4 tablespoons

Answer 2

ONE heaping tablespoon will make three cups in a regular 12 cup coffee maker. If you are making the full pot then use 4 heaping tablespoons. By tablespoon I do not mean the actual measuring device that you may have, I mean the large spoon in your drawer that you usually use when having soup.

Answer 3

1 Tbls. per cup is the general rule.  I like mine stronger so I add an extra.
