Can you put 10 cups worth of whole beans in and be able to have only two cups worth be ground at a time?

this coffee maker allows you to fill it with beans and determine how many or how few cups you like...it even lets you determine how strong

Yes. I always have my bin full with coffee beans and generally make 4 cups every time.

Well, the grinder will hold enough beans for two full pots of coffee, but it gets tricky when you're measuring and brewing small partial amounts. Be aware that a Capresso cup is not an 8oz cup. If you put a legal measure of 8ozs. of water in your Capresso pot, you will be full to the top of the rim, well over the 10 oz. marker on the pot. That said, I still believe this is an excellent coffeemaker. Good luck with what you're trying to do

Will it properly grind just 3 tablespoons of whole beans - enough for just one drinkable cup of coffee?

Hi Jennifer! Yes, you can, but because it is a much finer grind than "percolator grind" I would recommend a paper filter below and above the grounds in the basket. This will reduce the liklihood of grounds in your cup.

Yes you can. I think I should tell you that the thing that holds the grounds doesn't stay shut very well causing steam to escape and you end up not getting a full cup

The coffee bean bin can be full no matter how many cups you want to brew. You add the correct amount of water to match the number of cups you select on the dial each time you brew coffee. There is not a "reservoir" of water that is always full.

If you mean pre ground coffee, yes you can add a measured amount of ground coffee to the hopper in the bean area, also you can vary the amount of water to achieve the same result. Its called an Americana. Hope that helps.

Well, technically you could do that. However, it would not taste as delicious as pouring freshly boiled water on freshly ground beans. You would have to give it a stir to ensure it all mixed in and it would just not be the same. However, in a pinch, it would totally work. Please don't tell any coffee lovers you did it though. ;) Just be sure the water temp isn't super high.

Yes -- you can just add less water/coffee. I usually make 2-4 cups each time. The max is like 10-12 cups, I think.

Yes, there's a flap on the top you can open and then pour one scoop of ground coffee into. It's not really designed for this, you're far better offf getting beans.

I assumed it was for whole beans but now that you ask, I guess ground would work. But ground coffee is best kept in the freezer in my opinion. That's what I do anyways if that helps.

It's very easy to use either whole bean or ground. Just push one simple button on the front to turn the grind off and put your ground coffee right in the basket.

you just use about 2 tablespoons of grounds. no need for disposable singles since the maker has a built-in basket filter

Yes, you can make as many cups as you want up to eight. You simply use less scoops of coffee and the press does just as great of a job on smaller amounts. One of the best purchases we have ever made!

No, you either grind your own beans or use coffee that is already ground. This is the BEST coffee maker I have ever had. It works perfectly, makes from 3 to 10 cups in 3 minutes flat. (I grew up when making "stove top" coffee was in vogue. Yes, I am THAT old!! So I know good coffee and good coffee makers---this Bunn is the best yet!

Yes. There is a selector switch on top of the coffeemaker that allows you to brew a single cup of coffee or two cups at once.

Yes you can. You will need to buy filters the reusable filter did not come with mine. Do not make a full pot of coffee or the grounds will run over as well. Lynn M N

It depends on how much beans you put in the container. There is a setting from 1 to 10, with 1 being for less beans and 10 for when it's full. It's really simple to use you'll figure it out.
