How much does 1 kg of coffee beans make?
For a 1kg bag of coffee beans you should expect to get around 120-140 cups of coffee. Based on variable data and on a standard single shot coffee. Here is an interesting fact: if you’re making espresso, a 1kg bag contains enough beans for approximately 125-143 perfect shots! Light coffee drinkers (1 cup daily) will find a 1kg bag lasts 3-4 months. Moderate drinkers (2-3 cups daily) finish a 1kg bag in 6-8 weeks.If you’re an espresso brewer, you can generally expect to pull 40-50 double shots of espresso from 1 kilo of specialty coffee beans.For example, we should aim to extract 36g of liquid espresso from the 18g of ground coffee in 30 seconds, giving us our target ratio of 1:2. Don’t be afraid to try different coffees or big changes in your ratio style, but when you find a coffee you like, stick with it for some time!
