Coffee brew ratio Calculator

Calculate coffee dose and batch ingredient cost from a brew ratio. This free coffee brew ratio calculator shows the calculation and its assumptions so you can compare your own figures.

How the coffee brew ratio calculation works

Coffee dose = brewing water ÷ water-to-coffee ratio. Batch totals multiply by servings.

Brewing water is input water, not final beverage mass. Retained water and extraction loss are excluded; the ratio is your selected recipe.

  2. Choose any applicable rate profile, pattern or assumption shown for this tool. Open additional inputs when relevant.
  3. Review coffee gper serving and coffee cost, then read the stated assumptions and eligibility conditions before using the result.
