What are the measurements under the spout for? (I have the 2 cup model) They are slightly lower, the 1 cup isn't level with the bigger 1 cup markings.

Those markings are there so you can read the measurements when you're looking through the cup from behind the handle. Like a rear view mirror, so to speak. Of course, this only works with clear liquids.

Yes it'll fit under the spout. I think it's the grande size cup...but a word of caution. These are the thin (but reusable) plastic cups you can get by paying $1 extra for your drink at Starbucks. I didn't know that when I ordered it, and was slightly disappointed when they came in the mail. Hope that helps!!!

No, I believe it's the halfway mark for each cup size. I recall checking once by pouring it into a regular measuring cup.

Haven't noticed that. I will now check....Okay. What I see is they do wobble on the counter, but they do not wobble at all on the cup, which is where the use is intended. I love the 2 I bought. My main reason for getting them was the lovely porcelain, which does not absorb anything, and the wide base for my larger mugs. I am not at all disappointed.

The actual measurement line is inside the cup so if you filled it to the brim to wipe a straight edge, you would be over the actual measurement you want. These are great for pouring liquids.

I put a cup and a half in it and it still has room to spare, two cups is prob about the max though. Def not more than 2.5

I've never had this problem. The spout is a small opening and the cup seal is very tight. In fact, I have the mug beside me right now. No issues here.

No, they are just indentions and do not say anything on it. I took my measuring cup and filled it with water and poured it in and it was over the first mark, so the first mark is under 1 cup. Honestly I'm not sure why they are on there. Hope that helps!

I believe I went to the bodums website and did a little research than measured. (I don't have the actual carafe anymore, it was my daughters) went off of the numbers etc.

MY cups are 2 1/2 inches tall yet they hold 8oz to the rim...I just poured a 1 cup measure into the cup and it held it. I bought mine several years ago and I live in the USA.

This is in response to the fuffin cup size. They are 1 1/8 deep, 2 5/8 at the top and taper slightly down to 2 1//8 at the bottom, hope this helps!

Mine holds 3 cups, the screen is dipped, to hold about one cup and then it has marks on the side for 2 and 3 cup levels. I measure mine with another cup when I put my flour in

I can't say I've had this problem with these measuring cups (or others I've owned). I agree with Dale's answer that a 'confident' pour makes a difference.

I agree with the others, make sure you do not have too much water. If you are using the Brikka model, then first you measure the water in the upper chamber by filling to the "H2O" fill line and then pour it into the lower chamber. The lower chamber will then only be partially filled. I have the 4 cup model and it fills to about 1/2" below the valve inside the lower chamber.

I am not close to the coffee pot to confirm the model. The top lid of my pot fills closer to the spout and this one fills in the center. The height is good.

I would say 1 cup , but it separates all the way down to the last little bit since the spout sits so low.

you can add the equivalent of the cup size you are using. I typically use two cups just in case I want a second.
