How big is a cup? I can't find anywhere the actual output of this machine - does a single disk make 1 6-ounce cup of coffee?

Depending on what kind of disc you get, most of them (tea, coffee, hot chocolate) make an 11 oz cup. The espresso discs make 3 oz. For the lattes and cappuccinos, there are 2 discs: the espresso disc makes 3 oz and the milk disc adds milk up to 11 oz.

We purchased the 6 cup model. It actually produces approximately 1 2/3 cups of coffee. Why they call it 6 cup I have no idea.

Good question. 6 fluid ounces in a "cup." For some reason this is typical on coffeemakers, perhaps since before we started using mugs, which these days can easily hold 12 ounces, there were "coffee cups" that typically held 6 ounces of coffee. I just measured and 24 ounces came to about the 4 cup mark on the water reservoir.

The gauge on the coffee maker says it makes 10 cups, but a full pot is only 48-ounces (I measured). So that's six 8-ounce measuring cups - or about four-&-a-half normal coffee mugs.

This is a single cup coffee maker. Two tablespoons of coffee is all you need.

Nope. It holds 12 6 ounce cups per the manufacturers info. It appears to be pretty standard with coffee pot manufacturers that they use 6 ounces for the measurement of a cup of coffee.

This makes 6 cups = full mug (12 fl ounces or 350 ml). For less you may want to remove the pot halfway(and put less coffee). Smaller size (2 cups) electrical bialetti (dual voltage) available on amazon Italy and Spain: http://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B002EWANQS/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yes, it makes an excellent single large cup. I use a coffee measure that a friend gave me. I like my coffee strong so I put in 4 tablespoons of coffee grounds. Then not quite 2 cups of water. This makes just enough to fill my large coffee mug. The unit has a timer to turn it on, but I do not like to set it up the night before as the coffee is exposed to too much air. It only takes a few minutes to set it up in the morning.

I make a nice, big cup of coffe with mine. About 16 oz. I've never actually timed it but I would guess about 5 minutes all told, including the time it takes for the grounds to finish draining. Might take less if you don't gring your coffe as fine as I do.

Standard size cup that coffee makers use. I think that means 5 or 6 oz. I get two mugs out of a four-cup brew.

When it says 6 cups, it means Italian expresso cups which are a Little Bigger than a shot. This makes about 12 to 14 oz of coffee, but its smaller for a reason. This type of brewing turns coffee into expresso style which is much stronger.

600 ml..that is not the problem..when you put the paper coffee filter, it hardly makes one cup?..can you imagine..? spending 73 dls in freight? and 16dls forthe Hario?? also all filters come with a mesh? this is why,i bought the server set..NO GOOD

10/26/2013YES! you can make one cup of coffee at a time. This is a fantastic dual cup coffee maker and I have been using it now for several months. I bought this coffee maker because my husband and I love a fresh cup on our way to work. Also, the mugs are perfect in size to take with you or use at home. The best part is that you definitely can make only one mug. It even comes with a coffee scoop. I would recommend this and buy it for a present too. Hope I helped.

This one basically stores only 8oz. which is one cup. The others will let you go up to 12 oz. per cup sepending upon you desire. There is only enough room for a coffee mug in the catchment area. Often I fill a mug and then pour it into my tall covered mug from home, so I don't spill coffee. Since I got this, several of my colleagues have purchased these also.

It does not make 6 8oz. cups as it is an espresso maker. The ounces would be more like 2 or 3 oz. Remember it is very strong and a little goes a long way. It makes two regular cups easily with of course some milk added. I am very happy with my purchase. My main concern was that it was made from stainless steel and not aluminum.

The 8 cup measure is a little confusing, it actually produces 34 ounces of coffee, which to my taste is equal to 2 of the scoops. You can make half that amount with one scoop. You could make almost any amount if you experiment with the coffee water ratio.

Haven't fully filled it as the cup only holds 16-18 oz. but it will hold at least 3-4 heaping tbsp of grounds. I usually use 1 1/2 a 2. It makes a nice cup of coffee.
