How many shots of espresso can I get per 5 lb. bag

To calculate the number of 1.5 fluid ounce shots of espresso you can get per 5 lb. bag of coffee, we need to consider the coffee-to-water ratio and the amount of coffee used per shot.

Assuming the standard coffee-to-water ratio for espresso is 1:2, which means 1 part coffee to 2 parts water, and using 7 grams of ground coffee per shot, we can determine the following:

1 shot of espresso = 1.5 fluid ounces = 44.36 milliliters (approximately)

Coffee-to-water ratio = 1:2

Grams of coffee per shot = 7 grams

Now, let's calculate:

1 shot of espresso requires 7 grams of coffee, which means for every 7 grams of coffee, we get 1 shot.

To find out how many shots of espresso you can get from a 5 lb. (2267.96 grams) bag of coffee:

Number of shots = (total grams of coffee) / (grams of coffee per shot)

Number of shots = 2267.96 grams / 7 grams per shot

Number of shots ≈ 324.14 shots

Therefore, you can get approximately 324 shots of espresso using 7 grams of ground coffee per shot from a 5 lb. bag of coffee.
