1 tablespoon of coffee weighs approx 12.5 grams.
100 / 12.5 = 8 tablespoons of coffee (16 tablespoons in 1 cup)
So....
1/2 cup of coffee grinds.
Did I mention I drink a LOT of coffee???

I can not get a tablespoon of grinds to weight 12.5 g no matter how high I heap it. The problem with a table spoon is the variation of heaping, I can make a spoonful weight 5g to 10g depending on the heap and lack of spill.
A bodum scoop is usually 7g scoop per level.
Sweet Maria's sells a scoop that is 10g.
I like the 14g scoop that came with the areopress.
I can not get a 1/2 cup of grinds to weight any more then 37 g and that is heaping.
So do i drink more coffee then you?
