I pour about 1500 ml water over about 50 grams of coffee. It’s fine. It tastes good for some time.

What makes coffee taste especially bad is just sitting out. It gets sour and real bitter.

That's really strong coffee unless your steep time is very slow or the grind is coarse. I think your guests will most likely not go for a second serving :p

That’s a ratio of near twice what the article recommends, it’s really weak.

And I don’t make it like this for guests because it’s too weak. Well, maybe okay for Americans.

oops I misread that as 500ml of water, not 1500ml.
