Homemade coffeepods?

[freyadog]

Does anyone know the amount to put in the coffee filters to make one and two cups of coffee? Got the filters out and the stapler and low and behold I dont know how much to put in the filters. I use a Seneco if that makes any difference. Any help here is appreciated since I am now out of pods and don't intend to spend money on them. The ones that I just used up I got for free.

Well, I don't know how much to put into them, but what about using a regular coffee filter and put the coffee in it, then gathering up the edges and tying closed with a bit of thread? Kinda like a tea bag. I'd be interested in hearing how it works, if you should try it.

I have done the tea bag method myself. I put 1 large tablespoon in for each cup and 1 tablespoon extra for the pot. I keep the filter nice and flat and over our drip hole in the coffee maker.
