how many cups of water for one coffee scoop
Report Abuse. If you're talking about a drip coffee maker, I use one scoop for every two cups of water, using the markings on the pot. It makes a pretty good pot of coffee. When my dad comes over I make it a little stronger, since that's how he likes it. use between 5 and 6 scoops for 10 cups, just enough to have the last sip of the cup have a really fine, almost sandy bit of coffee grounds floating in suspension. Yes it's strong but damn it's good. One/Two scoops seems very small. Even my mom uses 3-4 scoops.
