Answer: the extraction is 18.2%.
Explanation:
Let's see few definitions:
TDS = Total Dissolved Solids = solids dissolved in the brew
PE = Percent Extraction = percent of solids extracted from the dry coffee grounds
The percent extraction can be calculated by the formula:
PE = TDS × Rm
where
Rm = ratio between the mass of the brew and the mass of dry grounds
Now, you need to consider the following facts:
1) every 1g of coffee absorbs 2g of water
2) the given brew ratio is 1:15, which means that for every 1g of grounds we use 15g of water
Let's call
x = grams of coffee grounds we want to use
Therefore the mass of the brew will be:
m(brew) = water we use - water absorbed by the coffee
= 15·x - 2·x
= 13·x
Therefore,
Rm = m(brew) / x
= 13·x / x
= 13
Hence, the percent of extraction will be:
PE = <span> TDS × Rm
= 1.4 </span>× 13
= 18.2
Solve for Volume by Space. All physical objects occupy space, and you can find the volume for some of them by measuring their physical dimensions. ...
Solve for Volume by Density and Mass. Density is defined as an object's mass per a given unit of volume.
100 - 45 - 20 (0.2 = 20%) - 12.5 (1/8 = 12.5%) = 22.5%
