How to Use It (3 Easy Steps)

  1. Pick your brewing method — drip, French press, pour-over, espresso, and more are covered.
  2. Set your water target — tell the widget how many milliliters you're brewing.
  3. Read your recipe — it instantly shows how many grams of beans you need (e.g., 23g at a 1:15 ratio) plus the ideal grind setting, like Medium-Fine for clear flavor extraction.

3 Pro Tips

  • Weigh, don't scoop: grams are consistent; scoops are guesses. A cheap kitchen scale changes everything.
  • Grind just before brewing: ground coffee goes stale fast — the widget's grind setting only shines with fresh-ground beans.
  • Dial in with ratios: brewing stronger or weaker is just a ratio change. Try 1:14 for a bolder cup or 1:16 for something lighter, and the widget does the math.

Your challenge: run this week's coffee budget through the widget and try ONE new ratio on your next brew. Report back in the comments — which ratio won your taste buds? And while you're there, check out the rest of the Wizard's free apps on the blog — new ones land all the time.
