An American cup of 8 ounces is 250 milliliters. The pot holds a bit more, but just a bit.

The Bialetti 6799 makes 3-2 oz. cups or 6 oz. totalThe Bialetti 6800 makes 6-2 oz. cups or 12 oz. totalThe Bialetti 6801 makes 9-2 oz. cups or 18 oz. totalThese cups are pretty strong so you can add more hot water or hot Milk after brewing and still have a great cup of coffee. I like about 6 oz. of coffee with about 4 oz. hot milk, tastes really good. If you want good coffee these Bialetti's are great but if you want a good espresso, then buy a good pump-driven espresso machine. Breville makes a great one.

When it says 6 cups, it means Italian expresso cups which are a Little Bigger than a shot. This makes about 12 to 14 oz of coffee, but its smaller for a reason. This type of brewing turns coffee into expresso style which is much stronger.

Not even close! I want to say when you fill the bottom you can only get in about 10-12 fl oz in there (I haven't measured but that is my best guess)... and when the coffee's ready depending on how fine the grounds are (the finer, the harder for all of the water to boil through the filters) you will probably lose up to 1oz of liquid. If you want it to make more coffee than 10 oz of coffee then I suggest you get a bigger pot :)

When I received the 3 cup pot in the mail, I realized it was too small for the amount of espresso that my husband & I drink in the morning. It makes approximately 3/4 cup of espresso total, which is less than the two of us is willing to share. I sent it back and ordered the 6 cup size instead and it makes about 1 1/2 cups when finished and then we add milk or cream to make it a larger cup. The 6 cup pot is NOT large but the perfect size for the two of us. It makes like 8-12 oz of coffee.

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.

It makes one 3 ounce cup of coffee. Not exactly what I was wanting, so I returned the pot. Unfortunately the pot I wanted has been discontinued.

There is a 4 cup marker on the coffee pot. We have never made 4 cups, but when you pour the water in close the lid the water comes out. Your coffee will absorb some of the moisture so you might want to make 5 to get 4. We love our coffee maker and use it to make tea also. Very fast... with water hot in the holding tank.

It can make 3 to 3.5 cups of coffee (us standard units of measurement). My favorite coffee brewer.

We make just two cups sometimes. We buy water a lot in 16 oz bottles, so we use one 16 oz bottle of water when we only want to make 2 cups of coffee. Works like a charm for me and my husband. Hope that helps answer your question!

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.

The pot size is 2 quarts, so it really depends on the size of your cups. It can make 4 (8 ounces) cups of tea,

It makes an 6 to 10 oz cup of coffee per pod. I hesitated 2 years buying this and could now kick myself. This is the best coffee maker I have ever owned. I enjoy every cup so much.

Ours will just make the 8 cups of coffee, but that's large cups. We love it.

You can customize the machine to make up to a 17 oz. cup of coffee. It's easy to do. Each type of coffee pod has a barcode, so you need to customize once for each blend. After you pop the pod in you just hold down the "start" button until you get the amount of coffee you want, then you release the button. The machine will then remember what size cup of coffee you want for that particular blend. (You are also able to de-program the machine to go back to the original setting if you prefer.)

all coffee makers say 12 cups BUT that size cups are small measurement, like English tea cups. so yes it is 6 American cup size. we Americans use large cups so I suggest you measure by pouring the cups you'll be using with the water first in the glass and you'll get exactly 6 American cups full.

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

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!

Sorry, mine is the six cup. It's about 10" tall. If you are considering a two cup, please note those are very small "cups". A demitasse at best. My six "cup" does not make quite enough to fill a normal American coffee mug. Of course the coffee is strong and since I use a lot of frothed/steamed milk I actually get two lattes per pot. I love this pot, the best one I've found. I have two and use them daily.

Makes 2-8 cups. If you only need two cups it can make that of 8 cups if you need more..

It does not make 6 8oz. cups as it is an espresso maker. The ounces would be more like 2 or 3 oz. Remember it is very strong and a little goes a long way. It makes two regular cups easily with of course some milk added. I am very happy with my purchase. My main concern was that it was made from stainless steel and not aluminum.

It can make an 11.2 oz Americano with 2 button-presses (double shot of espresso = 2.7oz, then hot water = 8.5 oz), which is close to the size and flavor of what an American might call "regular coffee". Actually it can make any size of coffee -- I only use 11.2-oz as an example because it's the size of a Starbucks "tall". Obviously it doesn't exactly do "drip coffee" if that's what you meant, but with some experimentation and the right settings, it can pretty much replace your drip coffee maker completely.
