Can I program this feeder to dispense 1/3 cup of food at a time?

Unfortunately, no. It's 1/4 no matter what. We started giving our cat some wet food everyday (1/4 can) because he expends more energy than what he was getting from the feeder. Otherwise, it's still a great feeder- ours is still doing great, even though our car puts his paw in the food chute to coax out a couple kibbles at a time.

Yes, you can program the amount of coffee it produces with each capsule by holding down the blue 'brew' button until the amount you desire is reached. The machine then remembers this size until you decide to change it. This can be as little as a small espresso cup to a larger cup. Of course the coffee gets weaker the larger the cup but it is still quite versatile while producing a great cup of coffee to your liking.

I think there are 6 different feed times you can set and feeder can be set to go off from 1 to 30 seconds

Hi the amount of beans dispensed is variable, it can be one or three. You cannot set the quantity.Charles

Yes, this unit must be plugged into a timer and you can use any timer you'd like. A $5 cheap mechanical timer was included with my feeder and it's still working fine.

Yes, that is correct. You can input up to three feedings per day, and designate the time the food drops to the minute.

yes, but you need to feed it consistently without letting it clog. It can be a slow process.

Unfortunately, you'd have to buy a much pricier food dispenser to have those features! I pour my cat's food in one cup at a time, and once the food canister gets about 1/2 way full, the food quickly comes pouring into the bowl (and usually over the sides of the bowl, too). It's a very useful product for anyone who has pets that don't eat everything in their food bowls in a single sitting. This product is great for my cat since he stops eating when he's full. My dog, on the other hand, will eat every last bit of food he can get his paws on!

If your timer does not have a battery back-up, then you would need to program the correct time again. The feeder will still feed once the power comes back on, it will just feed at a different time but the same amount as you set.

There is a adjustment knob that you can control how much food is dispersed.You should be able to cut it back enough to disperse a 1/8 cup.

I Don't think so, as you can only set an interval between each watering but they are the same. I know I set mine for Tue, Thu, Sat but then must remember to turn off so it doesn't run on Mondays. With watering restrictions it is probably best to find one more programmable. I will have to do this also.

It will work with round, flat, and triangle shapes, and has and adjustable section on the feed auger that you set for the diameter of the food. It can be set to dispense very small bits, and up to 1/2". The instructions for the auger adjustment as well as the feed time and quantity settings are user friendly.

You can turn the screw that controls the length of time of the food delivery to any setting you want. If it dispenses too little for per feeding, just adjust to a longer time. Too much food comes out? Make the delivery time shorter. Any amount you desire is possible but the amount would be the same per feeding (unless you access the special setting available on the digital timer that allows different amounts of food delivery at the different times).

We have an old cat that must eat very small amounts very often. We set the feeder to deliver food once an hour in very small quantities. The timer allows you to dispense food as often as every 15 minutes for the full 24 hr day. We dispensed at 1x per hour. The feeder is also adjustable to allow for different size dry pellets but not sure if a tablespoon quantitiy could be dropped, but we drop very small quantities. If you decide to purchase, I would look at the digital timer instead of the analog mechanical one as that part was the only negative issue we have experienced. The sales folks at Superfeeder were also very helpful so I would contact them too with any questions. We have an old cat that must eat very small amounts very often.
