minimum dose size?

I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Does chaff affect coffee flavor?

I have heard Lance Hedrick mention that chaff either weakens a coffee’s flavor or it imparts a paper taste to it at worst. Sprometheus stated that it doesn’t unless the coffee dose is low. However, he did not account for bean variety, processing technique, or roast level as far as I could recall.

I tried removing chaff and noticed a more pronounced flavor profile on a washed coffee. On the other hand, I never did that for coffee processed any other way, including anaerobic washed. I also started removing chaff at the same time that I started removing quakers and other bad beans from my coffee.

In addition, I am curious as to what the effect, or lack thereof, would be for coffees with big, loud flavors like boozy anaerobic naturals, and how big a difference it would make for coffees more than 3 weeks after the roasting date.

So, does chaff affect coffee flavor? Do bad beans affect it more? Does either make a bigger difference for coffees with more subtle flavors like washed coffees?
