Coffee Maker With Grinder

Why is my fresh-ground coffee so WEAK and WATERY?
I just bought a coffee grinder and some delicious-smelling Archer Farms Tanzanian Peaberry whole-bean coffee. I’ve had this before at a local cafe, and it was AMAZING. (Thought it quite possibly wasn’t the Archer Farms variety.) But I can’t replicate it here with my drip coffee maker. It’s just SO weak. I tried adding 4 tsp of very fine grounds to 12 oz of water and 3 tsp of coarser grounds to the same amount with essentially the same result. Can someone offer some advice?
For a drip coffee maker with a filter, fine grind beans are what you need. But you may need to use more of them if your coffee is turning out weak. Coarse grind can’t do its work in a drip machine because the water only passes through the beans briefly. They are better suited for brewing methods where the beans sit in the water for several minutes, which brings me to my next point…
If you’re on a hunt for awesome coffee, your next step should be to buy a French press. Is your coffee grinder the blade type, or a burr grinder? The blade type tend to give inconsistent results, where you have fine grinds mixed in with the coarser stuff. For a French press, you need a consistent coarse grind. And only grind your beans when you’re ready to use them. And despite common advice, do not store them in the fridge or freezer — the coffee will hate you for this. Keep them at room temperature sealed in an airtight container away from sunlight.
