I have the 1.3 L Coffee Saver and would like to use this larger to store both green coffee beans &amp; fresh roasted coffee beans. See any problems?

I buy Lavazza beans in a 2.2 lb bag. I have the large and small vacuvin cannisters and they work fine and the two containers together hold the entire bag. I also use vacuvin for open wine bottles and it works well.

Michael, Unfortunately I have not idea. My personal opinion is because this is not an air-tight container the beans would not stay fresh is stored in the hopper. By the way, I love my Capresso 565 burr grinder!

I have the 32oz one. I assume the 64oz is the same, just taller. The inside of the airscape is metal, but the piece you push down to remove the air is plastic. So if you wanted, you could leave a gap so that the coffee doesn't touch the plastic, but I think that would leave more oxygen, which would defeat the purpose of the airscape to some degree.

I bought a "standard" size 4 gold filter from Bed Bath Beyond and it just barely fits into the existing brewer basket (where the paper filter would sit). I tried using the gold filter with the existing brewer basket AND without using the removable brewing basket. Without the basket, the coffee drains faster and doesn't steep as long, so could effect coffee taste.

Sorry, I can only tell you the unit does well with all coffee beans I have used. This is my 2nd as I wore my first out after 4 years.

Hi Zan,Hi Zan, I replaced two receptacles on my burr coffee grinder, as of recently it seems that it has gotten hard to find the replacements so I'll tell you what I did I'm a outside the box thinker. I had a small pottery bowl that fit perfectly under the grinding mechanism and it is wide at the top so that the coffee doesn't fly out and that's what I've been using for the past nine months. Good Luck ;-)

Yes, BUT, it's not FINE enough. You will get some sludge. If you are diligent and grind your coffee in larger grounds it might be okay. I abandoned mine.

Hello! No, a 1 cup measure will not fit in this. You will need a much larger container. I store coffee in mine.

Yes, I had the same experience. I thought it might be due to a difference between a flat vs. conical basket. Thinking a flat basket required more coffee. Couldn't find any support. Capresso will tell you it uses the same amount.

Yes I have and it's not a good idea unless you want coffee grounds in your coffee and plastic from the lid. I've tried to cover the hole and sometimes that works. I've also reused the lid a few times in the same morning but again the same result as above. To me it's just easier to use a new lid.

It fits just fine. I know it's nutty, but I use paper filters in the basket. Our coffee is delicious. Be sure to get good beans and grind them just before brewing.

I'm not sure if we care referring to the same coffee maker. Mine is the BUNN MY CAFE single cup multi-use brewer. If that is the coffee maker you are referring to, then yes! I place the pods in the drawer with the edges (where the pod is sealed) down rather than just lay the pod in the opening, because the entire pod needs to be in the pod cavity and they want to lay on top.

It is an easy answer. Just put the coffee in it and close it. Depend upon how you want it you put a little or a lot of coffee in it. Never fill it to the top. �

Monsieur Jimmy,DW-12's are very esoteric and can present a significant fit problem.I don't know that this basket will solve your particular coffee issue.I'm going to suggest you delve a bit deeper into research on this one. Research never fails to pay handsome dividends.Sincerely,Charles...

I think you can either fill the top with beans (about 1/2 lb.) or toss them in just before the grind, I keep mine full. Either way, there's a bit of grind still in the unit, but that shouldn't be an issue because of the relative amount to new coffee, as well as the fact that unless it sits for an extended period, there isn't enough air and time to seriously degrade the next cup.

I cannot imagine why you couldn't. It holds 1/2 gal which should be large enough for much more than 2lbs. Of coffee.

Yes. I use this in a Hamilton Beach Stay and Go Coffee Maker. Since this model will take tall travel mugs, my intention was to use two pods for stronger coffee, but two of these pods will not fit in the coffee maker, just the one. In my coffee maker, I pull out the pod holder, lift up the collar, and put the pod inside (then close the collar).
