How much coffee grounds does this filter hold? (Will it hold 2 (two) tablespoons of coffee grounds)?

The Java Jig holds just two tablespoons. I pack it down slightly and tap the side of the top a few times to clear the top surface for application of the lid.

It holds approximately the same amount as a regular k-cup. We use Ruta Maya medium blend, but grind it fine (espresso). You can google javajig and find many reviews and tips for usage. Some experimentation will be required when you first get it in order to make coffee to your satisfaction.

Yes. I actually got out my measuring spoon to check. The max is 2 tablespoons.

I love these filters because they are big enough to make your coffee strong, without clogging the coffeemaker. Most filters are made for up to 8 cups. I have a regular 12 cup coffeemaker.

I would say that 10 minustes is about the same time this would take to fill a 32 oz- I use the #2 filter which holds a smaller amount of grounds & I only make 16 oz at a time and it is about 5 minutes or less. I assume you are probably using a larger #4 filter to hold the grounds for a 32 oz cup which would also make a differance in how fast the water flows thru the dripper.

Sure! Just put less coffee in the filter, and use less water -- to brew 2 cups, for example, just use half the coffee and water you would for a full pot. Be aware, though, that an "official" cup of coffee is just 6 ounces (5 ounces for hot tea, in case you were wondering!). So if you drink a mug of morning coffee, be sure to make at least half a pot (2 cups).

I bought this for my son so have only used it once. As the water initially runs through the cone before slowing down to a drip, I think if you just put in more coffee and boiling water, enough for 2 cups, and use a jug that can hold 2 cups under the cone, rather than a one cup mug, this would probably work. Probably the #2 filter would still work.

4 cup filters. I tried the regular, but sometimes they would fall and coffee grounds would get in the pot.

I do use the water filter. I don't know the dimensions, but it does hold 14 cups of water/coffee.

YES, believe it or not it holds 2 tablespoons when it is filled to the top. Love it. Just to make sure I just tried it for you with a measuring spoon. I used fine grind Trader Joes Italian Coffee....it was wonderful

I use a Bunn 10 cup and had grounds with the paper filters. I've made full pots for about a week with the reusable filter and haven't had the overflow problem or grounds in my coffee.

This is the best I can do measure the filter area (I doubt these will work) I suggest a K Cup single serve kit for that thing you got there.Q: What is the measurement of the diameter of this filter? 65mm or about 2 1/2 inches See all 2 answers

I put 2 tablespoons in but then had to remove 1/2 teaspoon to get the lid closed tight. I use Starbucks ground coffee. Hope this helps.

Hi Cathy.......this is a very fine mesh material, I'm guessing it's made of nylon and yes, it should filter coffee grounds quite nicely.I think 4 or 5 of these come in a package and you can certainly 'rinse and repeat' often before replacement is likely to be needed.I say give it a shot.....you really have very little to lose for the price charged.hope this helps,mark

This is a STANDARD 2# COFFEE FILTER. If you buy 2# paper filters for your coffee maker, this would fit correctly. I use a pour-over that requires a 2# size paper filter but prefer 4# because it prevents accidentally getting grounds in your cup.

I used 2.5 cups of coffee grounds and it was perfect! I usually use Starbucks brand coffee...Hope this helps.

None. There is a plastic basket inside where you can put your coffee. I never used a filter but suppose if you get a really small one it might help if some of the grounds, if small, escape into the coffee pot.

Depends on your coffee strength and how much water you use. I use one heaping tablespoon per 8 oz. The more the better!

This won't happen if you don't fill it up too much. I use 4 tbsp. of coffee to a little under 4 cups of water. Otherwise, it will overflow when you put the filter-press back on. Hope this helps, it is a great French press!
