I'm not sure how many TBS I'm using, I fill the basket to within a 1/4 of an inch from where the top of the screen and the plastic meet, then I fill the canister with water to about a 1/2 from the top of the clear plastic part, insert the basket and shake for about 3 minutes then set in the fridge. If I have the time and don't forget I will try to take it out of the fridge every 4 or so hours and give it a quick shake, but not sure if that matters or not, the instructions say to unscrew the lid and swirl the basket every 4 hours, I figure just shaking it for a couple of seconds does the same thing without unscrewing the lid.
