Serious question, does anyone else hit exactly 23 grams and just know it's the one?
I started weighing my beans a few months back and landed on 23 grams as my sweet spot for a 12 oz mug. Fewer than that and it tastes thin, more and it gets bitter on me. I wrote the number on a sticky note on my grinder and now I do not even think about it anymore. My old scoop was giving me somewhere between 18 and 28 grams depending on the day, which explains a lot about my bad cups last winter. What number did you land on for your setup, and did it take you a bunch of tries to find it?

Did you fight the scale at first too? I used to eyeball everything and swore my scoop was close enough, then I weighed it a few times and saw it swinging all over the place. Now I'm at 20 grams for my drip setup and it took maybe two weeks of tweaking to lock in.
