If it's instant coffee, which comes in the small see-through plastic jars, just put one teaping teaspoonful of coffee in a cup and add hot water. If you're talking about making coffee in a coffee maker, follow these steps: (1) Pull the basket above the coffee pot out. (2) Put a filter in the basket. (3) Put 3 to 5 scoops of coffee into the filter -- most coffee cans have a scoop inside for convenience, so use more for stronger coffee and less for weaker coffee, or if you can't find a scoop use a heaping tablespoon instead. (4) Fill the coffee pot with water. (5) Pour the water into the reservoir on the coffee maker -- some of them have a "flip-top" near the back that you have to open to pour the water in. (6) Turn the coffee maker on. In about 5 to 10 minutes you'll have a pot of coffee.

I like a 1/2 dry measuring cup full of the ground stuff and I fill the coffee carafe to the 10 cup line. It always makes what I consider perfect coffee.

a couple of spoons of ground coffee per cup of water, fill the coffee make with the water, put a filter holder above the pot. put the measured grounds in the filter, turn on, it should take about 5 minutes or so to make a few cups. caution: coffee will be hot, let cool for a few seconds, and enjoy.

from scratch? Or just putting it in the coffee maker. If just making a pot of coffee I use 1 tablespoon for every 2 cups. Comes out perfect and everyone loves my coffee.

You have to do it the Arab/Turkish way. You need a metal jug with a long handle. Put plenty of coffee (Turkish ground is best) in the water as it heats, dissolve sugar in it long before it boils (this is essential; if you don't like sugar, you can't make this coffee - it's undrinkable without it. And you can't add the sugar later - it's part of the process).
Keep continually turning the floating grounds over with a spoon while it's heating up. At the instant it starts to rise as if to boil over, turn off heat - it's ready. Do not let it boil. You need the long handle to lift it off the ring. Strain.
No milk - this spoils it completely.

If you want good flavored coffee that is just right and not too strong use 1/8th level cup or 2 oz. for every 12 cups of water. If using a 100 cup pot use 1 cup per pot.

Generally, use 7.5 grams (approximately two tablespoons) of ground coffee for every 8-10 ounces of hot water, heated to 200 deg. farnenheit.
Allow to steep for 4 minutes (if using a french press).
This is a much larger discussion, which can include how to roast green coffee beans, best methods of brewing (drip vs. french press vs. Chemex vs. Aeropress), the dynamics and particulars of making good espresso, etc.

If using a coffee pot (electric drip) It's usually a 12 cup pot, I use a tablespoon to measure my coffee, and with filter inserted in basket I add 6 level tbls. to my filter for a 12 cup pot! If you prefer weaker coffee, you may use less! Pour water in resivoir and push the on button, your cofee pot should do the rest! Good luck!

depends on how many people you want to serve and how strong you like it. Usually for a pot of 6-8, put two good tablespoons of coffee to the 6-8 cups of water and brew it. it should be a very balanced pot of coffee.
good luck
