Lets Talk About Coffee

I mean literally, or I wouldda put this in the coffee shop thread. lol

So, a while back, there was a Facebook discussion goin on about coffee. Folks were talkin about different makes and this and that but one thing stuck out to me. They were sayin they used 12 tablespoons of coffee in their coffeemakers. TWELVE. TABLESPOONS. I ain't sure mine would even HOLD 12. I asked a couple of times and they confirmed it like I was somehow coffee stupid. They said "yeah, one talespoon per cup". I use 4 tablespoons per 12 cup pot and it's really strong. If I used 12 it'd pour out like syrup and I'd go broke buyin coffee. What say yall?
