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...

Event Manager looking for advice on airpot brewers for coffee service

Hi everyone, new here so hopefully I've landed in the right spot. Our company is looking to add coffee service as an offering to our clients and I am working out all the details and associated costs. I've been looking at brewers that drip into airpots and I'm curious if anyone has any input for what type is best for that kind of service.

Our events are usually 150-250 people, oftentimes weddings. I've been reading a lot about the amount of products needed, I've got it all diagramed out and all hypothetic margins calculated. The one thing that I'm kind of stuck on (due to my unfamiliarity with them) is the brewers. We have some 2.2L airpots and I would imagine that we'd need to brew 50 cups per hour over 2-3 hours. I saw some that were ~$250 from Bunn (their base model I believe) as well as, ya know, $4,000 ones that obviously I'm not interested in.

So my question is, what's the best kind of brewer to use in regards to cost effectiveness and longevity/ease of use? Should I just get a normal, large coffee pot and fill the airpots, or should I get a brewer that dispenses directly into the airpots? Looking for ease of use for my staff (they're grumpy bartenders), mobility (I don't want to tap into any water lines), ease of cleaning, etc. Is there anyone here that could maybe point me in the right direction? I'd appreciate any help as I've already scoured the internet and I heard you guys really like coffee around here. Please help me haha.

Thanks so much for reading and any helpful replies!
