Travel Mug Use: When using a travel mug, can you adjust the amount of coffee since travel mugs are generally larger than normal cups?

You'll need to run another cycle, either of the same type, or you can get creative and add a chocolate or an extra espresso. They have now come out with new Gevalia & Maxwell House breakfast coffee discs which do produce more, using one overflowed my usual cup which was never filled by the original size. I found the new large ones at Bed Bath & Beyond. Use the 20% off coupon that they send out weekly in the mail.

I don't use the cups though as they are thin for hot liquids. I prefer heavier mugs.

I use mine with a wide-mouthed mug, also a narrow, tall travel 'mug' and it is fine. Tries over a small tea-cup - no problem. Ol\nly thing you have to watch, the small handle. Also, make sure you have put it on evenly so it is secure. I love mine. My plastic one lasted 47 years, but this is wonderful (and coffee tastes better!). Felicity.

I suspect that when they say "8 Cups" they mean 8 smallish coffee cups full. One pressing fills my large travel mug with some to spare. It's definitely on the smaller side, but without being able to keep it hot, I'd prefer that anyway

Depends on the size of the mug. There are two of them. One smallish, the other bigger.

Yes. Works best with standard size coffee mugs. I used a large coffee mug and it worked. Wobbled, but worked.

Very good question. We have only used regular coffe mugs, therefore I am unable to answer your question. Hopfully others can help you out.

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.

A six inch cup, a full size travel mug will NOT fit, that was one improvement they did not make. I use a smaller cup and transfer it to my travel cup. Hope this helps.

I was asked to answer this, but I never did figure that one out. I usually just adjust the amount of coffee or water. Perhaps this is a question for the manufacturer to answer. I do like the fact that this coffeemaker has a thermostat and never burns the coffee, thus the coffee it brews is pretty good.

Yes you can. The carafe holds 20 oz (actually 22oz if you push the limit a bit), so you can make one cup of coffee any size you want, from a 5 oz demi-cup, to a 22 oz mug's-worth. You decide how much / how many cups you want and just adjust the coffee grounds and water accordingly. No worries.

Yes. The opening is more rounded. It's not a slit that so many travel mugs use.

Yes if all your goods are not fitting inside the cup then you have the wrong size. Hope that helps.

Yes, we tried differant sizes and nor mal size travel mugs fit. They're what I use.

No way to adjust. Sometimes I push the "brew" button again if it hasn't been off for very long, but usually we just reheat the coffee in the microwave.

I did an experiment for you and filled the kettle to the level I usually do and then poured it out into my coffee mug, which is a standard size. I got 8.5 mugs out of one full kettle. So if your cups are a little larger you'll get less, or if you use smaller, Japanese sized cups you'll get more.

I don't even use the travel mug because I like the way a ceramic mug feels. I use a pretty big mug that's wide and it does just fine....you can always use a large cup and pour the contents into your own travel mug.
