Will it hold enough coffee beans for five cups?

Yes, I do a pot 12 cups, 12 would be the max. so it can handle 5 cups easy. I use mine everyday and love it.

My husband makes the coffee in our house and he said it works good for small pots there is a 3 to 5 cup option

The rule of thumb that we use is a level 1/4 cup of ground coffee for every 5 cups of water, so if I was making a full pot of coffee (42) in this urn I would use 2 cups plus a bit more. We find that 2 1/2 cups of coffee would make it a really strong.

The hopper will hold 5 TBSP whole beans; the collection chamber for the grinds will hold about twice that amount.

Indeed it will! It will hold up to 16-oz. (1 lb.) of whole bean or ground coffee or 500 grams (1.85 L.) of tea.

For a full pot I would say no.The most I can use it for is 6 cups other wise the grounds go up and over the basket.

One cup would be difficult as there is a minimum amount of water you need to put in there to get it to work. Two cups would be OK...but keep in mind, the larger the pot of coffee, the better it works.

There are 4 cups measured on it but it could hold at least 4 and a half cups

I use a cup of whole beans at a time, don't think a whole pound would fit, plus the hopper wouldn't hold a pound of ground coffee.

The size is labeled as for "5 cups" but I usuallly drink my coffee fron a standard size mug and at full capacity it only provides two (2) MUGS full,, which is enough to satisfy this coffee hound. I don't know what size cups they used to make the five that they claim but they must have used very small cups...The machine does do the job very well ( I mean for Two MUGS full.)I'm happy with it.

I think the heft of batter and displacement of space makes the 5 cups of batter correct. It will easily accomodate 6 cups of water - but there's a big difference in weight. I like this cooker - but the lid is a little hard to set and remove. The old tried and true "hinged clip" was much easier for me.

I'm not sure exactly but I would estimate it can grind up enough beans at once to make at least 3 cups of coffee, if not more.

I can easily store 250g of coffee beans in mine, but could not store 500g maybe 350 ? Hope this helps

It would be perfect for that. It measures 4.25" & weighs less than 7oz. It will grind enough coffee beans to make 6 cups, with one grinding. The handle slips off the top of the grinder cylinder & would be ideal to pack.

We generally get 5 mugs of coffee from it, so am thinking it must hold around 56ozs.? That would be seven cups total capacity.

Adam Kruger's answer is precisely correct. Additionally, the hopper holds enough beans for a 12 cup drip coffemaker - and maybe just a little bit more.

You can make 5 to 7 cups easily. Personally, I find it does best when making 5 cups.
