Yes, we brew it very strong at my house, too. My parents just recently started drinking coffee (who knows why?, at their age). Last time I visited them, I started preparing a pot and my mom ran over screaming, "YOU'RE USING TOO MUCH COFFEE! That'd be un-drinkable!" They make their's so weak that it's nearly un-drinkable to me. Also, my mom uses all those super-sweet flavored creamers. Eck. I just add a bit of milk and half a teaspoon of sugar. If I'm drinking it iced, it's just 50/50 coffee/milk.
Let's see, for me it's 8 scoops of beans, five scoops ground fine and three ground coarse for 10 cups of water.
Then I add some chilled evaporated milk or straight non-dairy powder and three sugar cubes.
That stuff will take the paint off of a building and fry your synapses...
It's so good.
