title_body: How many grams of coffee to use with the George Howell Kalita Wave recipe?
upvoted_answer: The given ratio is maybe a bit unusual - many sources for pour-over irrespective of the exact brand (Chemex, Hario,...) give 1:17 or 60g per liter of water, which is 16.666. This seems to be the ballpark number for pour-over.
  
  But is the Kalita different?
  Your source calculates between 1:13.9 to 1:15.6. Interestingly, at least one source (in German, sorry) agrees with the ratio of 1:15.4 for the Kalita, yet another goes as low as 17.8.
  
  
    Conclusion, sort of:
    The ratio is opinion-based and a matter of taste.
  
  
  Of course it’s up to you to go significantly lower - you won’t be breaking any laws - and I will freely admit that I am a total whimp when it comes to coffee strength.
