Coffee tools and calculators

Estimate caffeine, plan a brew ratio, choose a coffee maker, or find your machine's manual.

Use the brew ratio calculator before brewing: enter the coffee dose or water amount, select your method, and keep grams consistent. Espresso uses the weight of the drink in the cup; filter and immersion recipes use the water added to the grounds.

The caffeine calculator estimates intake from serving size and drink type. Replace a default with the product’s published caffeine amount when available. Its remaining-caffeine estimate is a model, so it cannot tell you exactly how alert you will feel or when you will sleep.

Use the coffee maker quiz to narrow a buying category, then check model dimensions and features before purchasing. If you already own a machine, search the manual library by its exact model number for setup, cleaning and troubleshooting instructions.
