Best to make it strong and then add some boiling water if needed. 2-3 heaped teaspoons per cup is about right for those heart pulpitating moments.

This means only one thing, lousy cheap coffee. Good coffee, not much cafiene.
Ditch the perc, go espresso.

I need good coffee with lots of caffeine (for assignments)
I'm one of those rare breeds that actually enjoys decaf, as long as it tastes good

We got a mesh filter, fill it to 2/3 - 3/4 full, too much and it overflows, and you dont want to have to chew your coffee.

Good coffee doesnt contain lots of cafiene Greg.
Spend $500 on a decent machine (espresso gaggia) and good coffee and you won't need caffiene
