Are your measurements exact when it comes to coffee?

Do you measure your coffee when you make it or are you simply a person who eyeballs the quantity when you put it in? I am an eyeballer and don't pay attention to formal measurements or scoops when making coffee. I know about how much coffee I need to put in the filter to make coffee I like. Sometimes I will make it a bit stronger or weaker than I intended, but most of the time it is just about right. What about you, measurer or no?

I hated the Keurig. I gave mine away. I always drink multiple cups of coffee and at the time I had mine..it was only designed for one cup consumption.

@snowy22315 I only drink 1 cup of coffee in the morning so it is good for me.

I am both. But I think my 'averaging' ability is over 90%...and it gets better with practice.

I dont measure my coffee exactly. Like you I know how many teaspoons/tablespoons make a perfect cup. So I estimate how many make a perfect pot. And I am always right on.

I wouldn't say my coffee is always perfect, but it is always in the ballpark..The cup I am drinking now could use a scoch more coffee..but it is good.
