In a 30 cup coffee maker how many pounds of do you need?

You can't determine how many pounds of coffee you need based solely on the size of your coffee maker (30 cups). Here's why:

* Coffee Strength: The amount of coffee you need depends on how strong you like your brew. Some people prefer a strong, bold coffee, while others prefer a milder cup.

* Coffee Grind: Different grinds of coffee require different amounts. A coarse grind will use more coffee than a fine grind.

* Brewing Method: The brewing method you use (drip, French press, etc.) will also influence the amount of coffee needed.

To determine the right amount of coffee for your 30-cup maker:

1. Consult your coffee maker's instructions: Most coffee makers have a recommended amount of coffee per cup.

2. Consider your preferred strength: If you like strong coffee, you'll need more coffee per cup than someone who prefers a milder brew.

3. Experiment: Start with a recommended amount and adjust as needed to find your perfect cup.

General guideline (for a medium strength brew):

* Use about 1 ounce of coffee per cup (or 1/2 cup per 5 cups of water).

Remember: It's best to start with a little less coffee and adjust the amount until you achieve your desired strength.
