How many ounces in a "cup" in this 8-cup coffeemaker?

My carafe holds 5 c. of liquid (40 oz.) when full. Therefore, B&D; is apparently figuring on 5 oz. per "cup". My mugs are more like 10-12 oz, so I usually get 3 - 4 mugs of coffee from a full carafe. That's plenty for me.

8 oz. in a cup. 2 cups in a pint. 2 pints in a qt. etc... But this seems to hold about 48 oz. I guess a cup of coffee is 6 oz.

Good question. 6 fluid ounces in a "cup." For some reason this is typical on coffeemakers, perhaps since before we started using mugs, which these days can easily hold 12 ounces, there were "coffee cups" that typically held 6 ounces of coffee. I just measured and 24 ounces came to about the 4 cup mark on the water reservoir.

Although it is correct to say that 1 cup of liquid measurement is equal to 8 ozs. when it comes to a "cup of coffee" the measurement is then 6 ozs which is the size of a "standard" cup of coffee whne served in an actual dinner set "cup"

They make a 4 cup and 5 cup model. I bought the 4 cup. I fill it to the top, but there was or is a 5 cup model that I owned previously. I didn't realize it when I bought it. The cups are only 6 oz, not 8 oz, why they do it that way escapes my logic, but look for the 5 cup model in the descriptions.

You can fill it with just enough water for one cup, but I use a 2 cup measuring cup to fill the water reservoir, and it makes me 2 good 8 oz cups of coffee. Their 5 cup capacity is actually 5 - 6oz cups. Hope this helps.

Ibeller79 is correct in that a standard cup is 8 oz. When talking about coffee, a cup is 6 oz. therefore your typical "mug" is probably 10 to 12 oz. When measuring coffee each scooper is calculated per 6 oz. cup therefore you probably do 2 scoopers per mug or 8 or 9 scoopers for an 8 cup coffee maker and get 4-5 mugs of coffee. A demi-tasse cup (espresso) is 4 oz.)

The gauge on the coffee maker says it makes 10 cups, but a full pot is only 48-ounces (I measured). So that's six 8-ounce measuring cups - or about four-&-a-half normal coffee mugs.

8 ounce is correct. It says 120 6oz cups. You must realize this is 1/2 pound of freeze dried coffee granules. It's a generous sized jar and being a multi-pack - well - it lasts me quite a long time and I drink it in a 16oz mug. Hope this helps.

It does not make 8 cups. What that means is 8, 4-oz cups (a European sized coffee). It will make 32-oz at one time. Regular, U.S.-sized coffee cups are about 10-12 oz. each, so if you are looking to make a ton of coffee, you cannot. I generally make 32-oz in the morning and it gives me a cup for my husband and nearly 2 cups for me.

You can control how much coffee and water you add. It makes approximately 3 8 Oz cups when full. It can certainly be used for a single cup.

The pot holds 16 ounces, which is enough to brew 12 ounces of coffee. The other 4 ounces get left in the grounds.

According to the carton, an 8 oz cup has 65 mg of caffeine. It takes 1 scoop to make 8 oz. Hope this helps!

8 oz. The top opening is large and hot beverage cools quicker than a smaller cup, of course. Needs cleaning to eliminate coffee stains.

8 oz but it fills the cup to the top. If your planning on using this for a Keurig I recommending filling it up as a 6 oz if possible.

One cup about 8 oz. If you use too much water, like regular coffee it will taste weak.

It has markings for 6 and 8 cups, these are European 5oz cups. I wouldn't go much below the 6 or you won't get enough water to properly brew. So I would say about 25oz.

I don't know how many ounces, but it was a very small cup. When I got the new pot, I got rid of this one.

I measured the contents of the carafe. Although it is marked 8 "cups", the volume is about 40 oz., which means about 5 oz. per "cup". The cup is probably intended to be a standard coffee cup which comes with a plate set - not the common coffee mug which most people use which is about 12 oz. That being said, the Yama makes about 4 standard coffee mugs per pot. I think you'd have to make at least a half pot (2 mugs full) for good results as not all of the water goes up into the top... any less might not provide enough water in the top to actually do the brewing of the grounds.
