How many cups of coffee does it roughly hold?

It can hold 2L hotwater. It's enough for two persons, keeping temperature well. I didn't put hot coffee or any cold beverage into it. just for hotwater.

I haven't measured exactly but, I think about 12 delicious ounces of hot coffee!

One single serving makes approx. 8-12 ounces, perhaps more, depending on how mild or strong you prefer your coffee.

Mine holds just a little more than 2 measuring cups. I use a large cup for coffee or tea so this works out pretty well for me. If you need more coffee or tea It's very easy to dump out the old grounds and make a new cup. This always gives you a fresh cup with no old coffee taste.

I have an "8-cup" Bodum French press. The equivalent amount of coffee to a full press is basically half a pot in the Melitta.

If a cup is 8 ozs, then 12 cups would be 96 ozs! If the carafe holds 96 ozs of water, then you would have 12 cups! I have never measured this! When the coffee is gone, I make more! The mugs I use are larger than 8 ozs, so I don't really know how many actual 'cups' my mug holds? I may never know, because I'm not going to measure it! I have other more fun things to do!!!

It holds enough coffee for one(1) cup. Exactly how much coffee it holds would depend on how mild or strong you like your coffee. I use 1 Tablespoon of coffee with 10 ounces of water. Not too weak; Not to strong.

Ibeller79 is correct in that a standard cup is 8 oz. When talking about coffee, a cup is 6 oz. therefore your typical "mug" is probably 10 to 12 oz. When measuring coffee each scooper is calculated per 6 oz. cup therefore you probably do 2 scoopers per mug or 8 or 9 scoopers for an 8 cup coffee maker and get 4-5 mugs of coffee. A demi-tasse cup (espresso) is 4 oz.)

The size is labeled as for "5 cups" but I usuallly drink my coffee fron a standard size mug and at full capacity it only provides two (2) MUGS full,, which is enough to satisfy this coffee hound. I don't know what size cups they used to make the five that they claim but they must have used very small cups...The machine does do the job very well ( I mean for Two MUGS full.)I'm happy with it.

It can make 3 to 3.5 cups of coffee (us standard units of measurement). My favorite coffee brewer.

I don't know exactly because I never measured it out but I would guess approximately 5 cups.

Four cups is the amount listed in the manual which is really around 2 mugs of coffee. I do this almost every morning.

It's hard to say, based on how strong you like your coffee. I make 2 full cups usually, but it seems like you could get more.

You can make as many cups as you'd like. I've filled this half-way before using less coffee and it's fine. I've owned this for a few months now and use it regularly, and it has been a great purchase!

6 ounces at most, for each standard coffee "cup." So by US and Starbucks standards this pot will brew 2 to 3 large cups of coffee.

I just poured the full container of coffee into my measuring cup and it measured almost 4 cups. Our coffee cups must be large because we only get 2 or 3 cups of coffee out of it.

16oz of coffee yes. But the maximum capacity is 32oz. Instructions clearly state that you must not fill the pot more than the bottom of the black filter basket, which is about 32oz. Being that a 'cup' is 8oz, then the capacity is 4 cups (32/8=4). This is in contradiction to the poster who says it will make 8 "large" cups - no way.
