About this episode
Episode 94: In this episode of the Roast It Yourself Podcast, the hosts tackle a thoughtful question from a home roaster looking to fine-tune their brewing process.
They dive into whether weighing coffee beans before grinding really makes a difference, how brew ratios impact flavor, and what role roast level plays in measurement—especially as darker roasts lose more mass. Along the way, they break down practical coffee-to-water ratios, how to adjust for strength and clarity, and why consistency can be the key to better cups.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you should be weighing your coffee or just eyeballing it, this episode offers clear, experience-based guidance to help you level up your daily brew.
