Can you brew less than 8 cups
1701590
Yes! As a matter of fact, when you you brew an entire pot, it is less than 4 cups. That's why we returned it.

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, just put in less coffee and less water, but you only get about 4 full cups when you do an entire pot.

You can make as little coffee as you want with this coffeemaker. The number of cups of coffee is determined by the number of cups of water inthe reservoir.

I dont recommend, bcoz it will taste watery. One single cup at a time. But if you want to brew for 8oz, you can do it at the same time for two cups

You could, but the coffee will be probably not as good as making the whole pot because it quite difficult to get it right when doing less than the full amount. I would advise making the full pot of coffee and just drink the amount you want. If you are going to drink regularly 3 to 6 cups then I think it would be better to buy the smaller pot. Hope this helps

You certainly can brew a smaller amount, as long as you use less grounds and water.

The coffee percolator only makes about 6 to 8 cups I would say 8 ounce cups

I have only made either 12 cups or 10 cups - to me not a significant difference in brewing time. It makes sense a smaller pot brewed would take less time. I have learned when the music plays to signal brewing has finished - it has not - that by giving it another 3 to 5 minutes it will completely finish.

Mine makes 28 ounces of pressed coffee, filled to 5/8 of an inch from the top. I use about 1/2 cup of ground coffee. Coffee machines consider 5 ounces to be a cup, so an eight cup pot is 40 ounces. This Bodem Presso does not make 8 cups. I think you could get 30 ounces or 6 cups if you use less coffee or a little more water than I do.If you want 60 ounces of coffee to share with friends, you can double the amount of coffee grounds, fill each cup 1/2 way with strong pressed coffee, and add an equal amount of boiled water to each cup.

Sure. You'll have to play with the amount of coffee and water to get the number of cups and strength you like but you can make anything from a single cup up to six.

Short answer YES. Whether I select 8oz or 14oz the coffee is brewed correctly

Not to my knowledge. I would put less water for a smaller amount of coffee. This coffee maker lasted less then six months. I have given up on Mr.Coffee makers

You can make 5 to 7 cups easily. Personally, I find it does best when making 5 cups.

Just put in as much grounds and water as you need. My first cup in the morning is always a full 16oz cup, but I often make only an 8oz cup.

Yes. There is a selector switch on top of the coffeemaker that allows you to brew a single cup of coffee or two cups at once.

You could brew as few cups as you want - would just be a different amount of grounds/water, but no reason this bigger french press would keep you from brewing a smaller about.

Absolutely not. I have used 20 seconds with an empty jar a number of times to brew 8 cups of freshly ground coffee.

The size is based on espresso cups not 8 oz cups. The smallest espresso maker is 3 cup
