I don't know why they use such odd numbers. I'm sitting with a 1.1 kg can of Tim Hortons coffee in front of me and unfortunately, the directions tell you to measure ten level tablespoons for every 1363 mL/48 oz. of fresh cold water. It doesn't say anywhere on the can where it was manufactured, just that the label was printed in Canada. On a side note, Folger's and Maxwell House coffees are both sold in Canadian supermarkets in 1 kg cans. Stephen Gallagher
