Coffee Measure?

I'm staying at my uncle's for the week, and he doesn't have any smaller measuring spoons. His coffee scoop looks to be about 1 T - I know most are 2 T, but this one seems like half the size. How common are 1T coffee measures?

    can you run to the store and buy some measuring spoons so that you know your measurements are accurate?

    For my maxwell house, they say use 1 T, but I've always been fond of the 2T scoops and just adding more water. Besides, coffee as almost no calories; an 8oz cup has 5 calories. Just measure your liquid result.

    I'm not using it to measure coffee... but thanks! And we're on a tight schedule, but I'll go for a walk later tonight and see if I can find any stores close by.

    Oh, sorry! I thought you were trying to measure coffee! Most scoops are two tablespoons, yes. If you don't mind spending a few dollars, any dollar general/dollar store has cheap measuring spoons and cups you could use.

    Thanks. Still wondering how to log the scoopful of almond butter I ate with breakfsat, though. Sure looked like a tablespoon to me.
