When you know the first four ounces of coffee are strongest, the rest is easy. Run 4 ounces into my cup. Then 8 ounces into my wife's cup. Then 4 more ounces into my cup. Strong enough for great coffee taste, a little milder than one original cup. Costco sells their brand of coffee for about 40 cents/K cup. This split takes you to 20 cents/cup, competitive with brew-from-scratch.Update: My wife suggests a tweak: Drip all 16 ounces of coffee at once into something hot. Then pour two 8 ounce cups to get a perfectly matched pair of drinks. BTW, a hot cup for a hot drink keeps it hot far longer. I like to pour really hot water from the tap or kettle into the cups, dumping it back out when I'm ready to make the coffee.
