What is the capacity of these coffee pots in fluid ounces? Does the 8-ounce pot = 64 ounces (2 quarts)? Or are they using some other volume for a "cup"?

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"

Ours is out in the camper (and it is raining cats and dogs!) so I am not going to go measure it. BUT, I can say we get a couple cups of coffee each out of it, enough for breakfast for the two of us. They might be quoting the pot filled to the brim with liquid (which is obviously not how it would be used) so if you are really in the market for one that holds a lot of coffee, like for 4 people or something, you might want to keep looking. I do like it a lot though, and would buy another one if aliens took this one. (Which, luckily, hardly happens anymore.)

These GSI pots are 5 fluid ounces for each 'cup'. An '8 cup pot' can brew 40oz of coffee, less a bit for steam and water absorbed by the grounds. The smallest cup of coffee on the Starbucks menu is 12oz. Most coffee cups hold 9-15 oz. So, if you want 64oz (about 5-6 average mugs of coffee), you will want the '12 cup' pot.

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,

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

The coffee percolator only makes about 6 to 8 cups I would say 8 ounce cups

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 holds 12 8 ounce cups only if you fill it to the very top of the rim of the pot and then you could not perk it! The 12 cups--where they have the measurement on the side saying it is 12 cups-- is really about 8 cups. So when they say 12 cups they do not mean 8 ounce cups.

Keep in mind too that the smaller Yama vacuum pot is referring to just over 4 ounce cups of coffee, 22 ounces divided by 5 while the 40 ounce version is 40 divided by 8. Due to water absorbed by the grounds both will yield a little less than the listed capacity unless slightly over filled. As I usually use a 20 ounce Contigo vacuum coffee travel mug the 22 ounce machine should give me one mug of coffee from a close to full capacity run. It is what I will order.

Although I don't have the pot at my current location to check it for sure, I believe 36 ounces would be the total as they consider a "cup" to be 6 ozs. When I make two twelve ounce cups with the pour over method that brings the level exactly to the 4 cup level, which from memory is about the half way point, so you should be able to get at least 36 oz if not a little more with a full pot. I can verify for you early next week if you would like to know the exact capacity. It's a handy little carafe for making just a couple large mugs of coffee at a time, and versatile enough to use either the #4 Melitta or #2 Hario cones on top.

Yes, the carafe is 42 ounces capacity but When I brewed coffee with it I always ended up with only 35 ounces in the carafe after filling the tank to 42 ounces. If I wanted a bit more I had to add some more water to the tank and press brew again and then stop it when the carafe was full.

One gallon = 128 oz., 1/2 gallon = 64 oz., one quart = 32 oz., one pint = 16 oz., and one cup = 8 oz. Are we clear?

It is 2 quarts so 64 ounces. I love it, it's a great fondue pot. I've also used it in the oven for other dishes.

Since "Coffee cups" in the US are standardized at 5.07 fluid ounces, (150 Milliliters), the 51 ounce Thermos comes closest to the 60.84 fl oz needed to equal 12 standard coffee cups.

I've never measured how many ounces, but it's a LOT more than 8; I'm going to guess that 30 is right. (sorry, mine is mostly full right now & I don't want to pour it out to actually measure the contents).

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.

One cup of coffee is equal to 5 fluid ounces. This is the industry standard as all of our competitors have also used 5 fluid ounces. The maximum yield for this unit is 25 fluid ounces.
1889596
yes, but it's 8oz cups not a typical mug which holds a lot more. I like the coffee pot though I wish I had bought it on sale... I saw it on sale later on.

No, 4 is the least amount you can do with this one - it seems as if with any coffee pot, their cups do not hold out to a regular cup so I am not sure if they go by 6 oz. cups or 8 oz. cups. I hope this answers your question(s).
