Assuming you are making 100 cups of coffee with 8 oz. cups, you would need 800 ounces of coffee. There are 16 ounces in a pound, so you would need 50 pounds of coffee beans.
Assuming you want regular coffee and not espresso, you should use 16 ounces or 1 pound of coffee for 100 cups.
How many cups of coffee does a pound of beans make?
One pound of coffee can make anywhere from 5 to 30+ cups of coffee, depending on the type of coffee and how strong you like it. On average, you can make about 30 cups of coffee with one pound of coffee. If you favor espresso, you can make 153 double shots with one pound of ground coffee. Even with these variables, the wider range can be from 5 to 30+ cups of coffee for every pound of coffee (bean or grounds).
To make a full coffee urn, empty the contents of 1 bag into the brew basket of a 100 cup or 101 cup coffee maker.
How to make coffee for 100 cups
The coarse grind coffee goes right into this basket. To know how much coffee to put in, start by looking at the manufacturer’s recommendations. If you don’t have that information, a good rule of thumb is to start with 2 tablespoons of coffee per cup of water. Adjust as needed to suit your taste.
As a rule of thumb, you’ll need two tablespoons of ground beans for every 6 ounces of coffee. This is approximately 0.38 oz or 10.6 g of whole coffee beans. If you don’t have a scale, 4 tablespoons of coffee beans will produce about three and a half teaspoons of grinds.
How long does 1 lb of coffee beans last?
A pound of coffee will last most people around 2 weeks if they drink 2-3 cups per day. Each cup should be around 12 oz, or a “tall” cup at Starbucks. If you drink slightly less coffee than that, a pound of coffee will last you around 1 month.
Some sources recommend using 28 grams of ground coffee per cup. However, I find that amount to be much too strong. I use a conical burr grinder, and grind 40 grams of coffee beans to make a 10 cup pot. At 4 grams per cup, I would get about 225 cups of coffee out of 2 pounds of beans.
How much coffee do I need for 100 guests?
Hello!
Thank you for your question.
In a group of 100 people, you can expect around 60 of them to drink coffee in the morning and 40 in the afternoon. Of the morning coffee drinkers, 40 will usually drink regular coffee. This means that you would need to have four gallons of regular coffee, 1-2 gallons of decaf coffee, and 1-2 gallons of tea available. For the afternoon coffee drinkers, 24 of them will usually drink regular coffee.
I hope this information is helpful!
The average coffee tree produces 10 pounds of coffee cherry per year, or 2 pounds of green beans. All commercially grown coffee is from a region of the world called the Coffee Belt. The trees grow best in rich soil, with mild temperatures, frequent rain and shaded sun.

Is it worth grinding your own coffee beans
If you want to brew an exceptional cup of coffee, it’s best to grind your own beans. This gives you more control over the grind size, which can have a big impact on the flavour.
Pre-ground coffee is typically cheaper than whole bean coffee for three reasons. First, if you choose the whole bean route, you’ll need to also purchase a grinder, which can cost anywhere from $10 to $1000 as an upfront cost. Second, whole bean coffee usually has a shorter shelf life than pre-ground coffee. And third, pre-ground coffee is more convenient since you don’t have to grind it yourself.
How do you measure coffee beans for grinding?
Assuming you want tips on how to weigh your coffee beans before grinding:
Turn on your scale and place an empty cup or glass on it.
Scoop or pour 20 grams of coffee beans into the cup/glass.
Check the weight of the beans and grind accordingly.
Old coffee beans are safe to drink, though they may not taste as fresh. They may have a musty or even rancid aroma, but they will not make you sick.
Does freezing coffee beans keep it fresh
Coffee beans can be stored in the freezer to preserve their quality for a longer period of time. It is best to place them in small zipper bags to prevent freezer burn. They can stay in the freezer for up to a month before the quality starts to deteriorate.
Assuming you mean coffee beans in general and not a specific type of coffee bean:
Coffee beans can stay relatively fresh if stored properly in an airtight container. They will slowly degrade over time, but if grounds are stored in an airtight container, they can last a couple of months longer.
Conclusion
There are 16 ounces in a pound and 2 tablespoons in an ounce, so there are approximately 31.25 pounds of coffee beans needed for 100 cups.
In conclusion, you would need 2.5 pounds of coffee beans to make 100 cups of coffee.
