Just as much as a timer is important to have a precise brew time, a proper scale is important to have precise coffee-water ratio. Also, keep in mind that "strong" coffee flavor, has no real relation to caffeine content. That aside, grind will definitely affect flavors that are extracted. David

[RBW] Re: Coffee questions

Just to point out: over-extraction does not result from too much (er, many) coffee grounds being used. It's a combination of too few grounds / too much water / too much extraction time. I find that using a generous amount of very coarse grind with a slow pour-over is a very forgiving method. C
