What is the MINIMUM number of cups I can make?

We make just two cups sometimes. We buy water a lot in 16 oz bottles, so we use one 16 oz bottle of water when we only want to make 2 cups of coffee. Works like a charm for me and my husband. Hope that helps answer your question!

As much or as little water can be added to the reservoir. In the morning I add enough for one cup as that's all I drink.

I would assume 1. I always make a full pot but it depends on how much water you add.

You could do 1 cup but you'd have to put at least a couple of teaspoons of coffee because of the basket-shaped filter - so you'd be wasting coffee if you made less than two cups.

yes, just select the amount of water you want, less water for a stronger cup and more water for a weaker cup.

Yes, it makes 4 cups just fine. In fact, I've even made less than 4 cups & it worked well.

It has a button on left side of coffee maker that let's you select 1-4 or 1-3 cups. I have used mine to make a single cup without any issues.

You are not supposed to use just one cup. If you use it correctly, it might work. The minimum is .5 liters which is a little over two cups. So many people seem not to follow instructions

Yes. I usually make 1-1/2 cups (typical-size mug cup) of coffee for myself. It doesn't make 8 cups of coffee unless a cup is very, very small.

Yes, you can make as many cups as you want up to eight. You simply use less scoops of coffee and the press does just as great of a job on smaller amounts. One of the best purchases we have ever made!

I believe the least is 25 cups--for our group we have 30 members but make 45 cups becasue we use 12 oz cups--butr have made 25 cups many times with no problem

Not sure! And I don't do my coffee extremely strong so that would affect the number of cups one would yield.

You can use short mason jars for individual servings, or you can make the whole batch in a large shallow sealable container. Just make sure that the container can fit (take the clear plastic t-fal top with you to the store), and that it can hold all 4+ cups for your recipe.

Not that much. Maybe 2 cups... I have two different brands and neither hold 4 cups, but if you pre cut your ingredients, you can make multiple batches quickly (if you're making guac or salsa).

I occasionally make only 2 cups; it works satisfactorily. I do make sure the tea bags are stuffed down into the bottom of the basket and I may allow another minute of brewing time. Three or more cups is ideal.

3 cups is the answer. We have not made that much but based on our results that is equivalent.

I don't suggest you buy this one, you can try buy smaller. Usually I use 16 cups for around 30-40 people

Sure, you can make just a single cup if you want. Just put in a single tablespoon of coffee grounds, coarse ground, and pour in the amount of hot water that you want.

No, 4 is the least amount you can do with this one - it seems as if with any coffee pot, their cups do not hold out to a regular cup so I am not sure if they go by 6 oz. cups or 8 oz. cups. I hope this answers your question(s).

You can definatrly make 2 cups in it. I do it often because I drink alone during the day... 2-3 "cups" is a mug full. Every morning we make 6 cups except on weekends we make 8.
