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.

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.

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.

For me it makes two nice size cups of coffee. It might make six espresso cups. Thanks for asking.

I do not know, but it would be the same as a 6 - 8 oz. cup of regular Folgers coffee I think. We do not notice a difference. It is so much easier than having a coffee machine on the counter, which a limited for me. There is Decaff too.

I've never really measured it, but I'd say it only makes about 8-10 oz of coffee at a time (maybe a bit more). I can generally make 2 very strong espresso drinks per pot. The "6-Cup" description is referring to cups of espresso, not 8 oz cups. Hope that helps.

Krups defines a cup as being 5 oz. So, this machine has a 50 oz. capacity. Buy something else. This one doesn't work very well.

Sorry, but I don't know. By the way, I only used it a couple of times. I found it too much trouble to make one cup of coffee. but it was way cheaper than one-cup coffee makers.

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

Lynn - I would say it makes four 6-ounce cups. However, I've found that if you add another 8 ounces of water during or at the end of the brewing process that you can get a true 5 cups out of it. Andy

Donna, it make an 8 once cup per disk. and about 8 cups with the water bin full. You can adjust the amount of water to make it stronger or lighter in flavor. I love this coffee it is the best. you can also subscribe to the tassimo web site and get the coffee much cheaper and free shipping, however I always look on amazon to see if they have a sale and some times they have it for less. If you purchase it you will not be disappointed. I never answer these questions or make a review, but for this one I think it is well worth it. I have one at home and one in my office.

I measured. It is 64 ounces. I filled my 16 ounce measuring cup up 4 times with water to fill the pot to where it is when my coffee is done brewing. My own personal handy dandy coffee cup that I use everyday holds 8 ounces. My own personal handy dandy coffee cup that I used before this one held 12 ounces. When I eat out, those heavy fat cups they serve you with probably hold 5-6 ounces, maybe 7; but they never give you a full cup. They usually fill mine to about 3/4 of a cup and I always ask them to top it off so that 1 little cream cup mixes in just right. Yes! - 8 ounces is 1 cup in a measuring cup; but 8 ounces is not necessarily 1 cup in a coffee cup. 64 ounces / 12 cups = 5 1/3 ounces per cup. Probably 12 of those small styrofoam cups, which would make it an honest serving size for advertising. I don't have any or I would measure for you. ? 96 ounces- It will be all over your counter. I hope I have helped you. I love my Bunn! To Big is just right. I bought the commercial for my home. Everybody comes here in the morning and I am ready! Bobbie

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.

It makes 32 oz or 4 8 oz cups. They must consider a "cup" of coffee to be 4 oz. By the way, I love it, very durable and makes great coffee.

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.

Very often a cup of coffee is considered 6oz so I would guess this is a 48 oz capacity. Just my 2 cents. I'm also researching a new press so do not own this brand. Don't take that as a definite just something to consider.
