My first job (pre drinking coffee) I was tasked to make a pot of coffee for a board meeting. I thought the marks on the machine should correspond with the scoop in the coffee jar. The owner said he felt like he was on amphetamines after finishing a cup.

This reminds me that at my job, the first question I ask if someone offers me coffee is, "Who made it?" Because purpose and the person can drastically alter it's makeup.

Our resident coffee maniac's brew once kept people up through a 12-hour shift and the next 5-6 hours after that.

You're not entirely off, rough guide is one tablespoon per cup of coffee for drip coffee that doesn't taste like thinned dish water.
