How much coffee can the top & drawer hold at one time? Reviewers said it brewed from 1 cup to 12 cups, but can someone give a measurement (oz/cups)?

.375 cups, I use 3/4 of a cup of beans for a pot of coffee, but I need to fill the holder twice. Also so there is no spillage I use a pyrex measuring cup.

Holds about 3 tablespoons of whole beans at one time, so enough between 3 and 4 cups of brewed coffee if you use standard recommendations for brewing.

To brew a full eight cup French press I have to fill the drawer twice. The top fits nearly all of it, I'd say six tablespoons.

It will hold enough to grind enough for 12 cups of coffee. I don't remember anymore then that.

It makes one 3 ounce cup of coffee. Not exactly what I was wanting, so I returned the pot. Unfortunately the pot I wanted has been discontinued.

There is a gage on the side for the amount of water to make coffee. It starts at 2 and goes up to 12. So you can make any amount you want. I like to make the 12 cup and save some in the refrigerator for iced coffee or to reheat the next day. It make a great cup of coffee, but watch out it is very hot. I usually put an ice cube in the cup if I use creamora or a powered creamer.

Brandon, if you have a brand new pot and trying to make coffee in it, search the internet and there are tons of videos on how to brew using a Bialetti. Also the pot does not have anything engraved to say how many cups it is. The top brewing pot should hold 300 ml to 350 ml ( 1 1/4 cup to 1 1/3 cup) of water for it to be a 6 cup (espresso cup) pot.

About 1/2 of a 12 cup pot of coffee. That turns into 3 "real" sized coffee mugs full. This is not a carafe that will keep your beverage hot for 12 hours. It is great for getting the coffee out of the pot before it starts to burn from the heat plate. We have 2 and have used them every day for over a year. We really like them.

This unit brews a pot of coffee, then shuts eventually. Rather than pour from a pot, you put your cup under the nozzle in front, press the lever to dispense coffee until your cup has the desired amount. This is not a pod coffee maker that heats a tank of water and makes a one cup at a time. There is an interior tank holding the coffee you have made...up to 12 5 oz cups. I returned the unit because it leaked after dispensing. I replaced it with a similar Cuisanart for $40 less.

Hi, one cup is 8 ounces. A typical coffee mug is more than that, probably closer to 12 oz. We get around 4-5 of our size cups out of the 8 cup coffee maker. Hope this helps.

That's not an easy answer... The stronger the coffee, the smaller the portion. If you like coffee as the manufacturer recommends, then 8 Ounces. If you like yours on the lighter side like a Dunkin Donuts, then roughly 12 ounces. You see, the one button operation brews the coffee, based on the bar code, to the manufacturers spec but, after the brewing is completed, you're given 10 seconds to force more water through the brewer so you can tailor the coffee to your liking.

That's about all I have every day, but one large "cup". It's actually a travel mug purchased from one of the well known book stores with a cafe. Usually my husband brews enough coffee to reach to the 2-4 mark on the side of the machine. There's a see-through area with a gauge, or level markings, so you can tell how much coffee has brewed so far (for lack of a better term). My husband will usually have a small cup at home too. Not sure if it will make only one 8oz cup only, at least a cup that tastes good, but maybe. One cup correctly measured however, is just that, one cup. Which is not enough coffee for my one cup a day!

One cup of coffee is equal to 5 fluid ounces. This is the industry standard as all of our competitors have also used 5 fluid ounces. The maximum yield for this unit is 25 fluid ounces.

I believe it is 8 to 10 cups. I have a bun pour over machine, and the decanter say's its 10 cups. I fill that to the top with water, and I set the grinder for 8 cups. then it is your preference to set your grind on what you like. My 8 cups I will use 4 scoops in the coffee grind holder. Then I choose I think the setting is 4 , not sure will have to check. It makes us wonderful coffee.

It actually holds 6 1/2 cups of water when full to the 12 cup line. So it actually makes 12 - 1/2cups of great coffee.

I was curious about this, so I put 12 oz in a liquid measuring cup and put it into the mug. There was about 3/4" from the top that was available. However, I use this for a Keurig brewer and I only fill it to the 10 cup line because I like to have room for milk.

Yes, you can brew just one or 2 cups. However, I drink out of a full size cup. The 4 cup Mr. Coffee ... really only brews 2 good size cups of coffee for me ... which is great . It has been a good little coffeemaker since I bought it. It being rated as a 4 cup coffeemaker ... must refer to those little white styrofoam cups.

As you know it should brew 12 cups...suggest you return and obtain a replacement.Danny

I measured the contents of the carafe. Although it is marked 8 "cups", the volume is about 40 oz., which means about 5 oz. per "cup". The cup is probably intended to be a standard coffee cup which comes with a plate set - not the common coffee mug which most people use which is about 12 oz. That being said, the Yama makes about 4 standard coffee mugs per pot. I think you'd have to make at least a half pot (2 mugs full) for good results as not all of the water goes up into the top... any less might not provide enough water in the top to actually do the brewing of the grounds.

This coffeemaker has a maximum capacity of 60 ounces. One cup of coffee is equal to 5 fluid ounces. This is the industry standard. Please make sure to fill the water reservoir using your decanter instead of a standard measuring cup.
