Please help can some please tell how to make coffee....?
Every time I try it comes out too strong or too weak.
Answers:
Always start with cold water. In a ten cup coffeemaker try 2 & 1/2 standard coffee scoops,level. Try the 100% Arabica Coffee from Walmart, it's good. DO NOT put salt in your coffee, it only gives you salty coffee.

My years of selling coffee.
One teaspoon coffee into mug... add sugar to taste (I take 3 to 6) lol Then add boiling water, fill the mug half way... stir until all is dissolved. Then add milk. Stir again and VOILA! Bon appetit!
Make a note of how much you used with how much water the last time, and keep adjusting your quantity until you approach your perfect cup of coffee. If one was too strong and the other one was too weak, then obviously using an amount between the two of those will be just right.
Are you making it in a coffee maker and using a coffee measuring scoop? If so, most regular 10 to 12 cup coffee makers a good amount is 2 to 3 scoops. I tend to like my coffee stronger so I use 4 scoops. (A standard coffee scoop is 1/8 cup.)
2 to 3 scoops of coffee, depending on pot size and how strong you like it.
Add a dash of salt to take the bitterness out. Something my Aunt taught me.
It depends of the kind of coffe you use and how do you like your coffee done. Here some options:
