how much beans does this hold to grind? 1/2 lb....1 lb ?

I only grind what I need for each use. However, I would say that it would hold up to a 1/3 of a pound. I find that coffee left in a grinder loses flavor, so I do not leave it in the machine. I do, however, find this to be a very good grinder. I use it daily, and it has given me very good results.

Half I would guess, it is just my old grinder held more, this is a good grinder.

I gave mine away because it was an awful product, and I don't remember what the capacity is. My recommendation is that, no matter which product you purchase, you grind only the amount you wish to use at the time.

Well, definitely not a pound. It's made to grind as much as you need for your daily use coffee pot, and shows that you can fill it with as much as an 18-cup coffee maker. Generally, I find that this is a good coffee grinder for my daily needs.

Holds just less than a pound of whole beans (in order to tightly shut lid). We love the product! Keeps beans in a dark spot and fresh!

You can grind 1/2 pound at one time but it's better to grind what you need for each time. The motor does get hot when you're grinding a large amount.

I think my measure is 1Tbspn and I use 2 to 3 measures per cup. But I'm still experimenting with fine or coarse grind.

The unit will hold a little over 7 tablespoons of beans. However the drawer will only hold about one third of that quantity, so you will have to empty the drawer a couple of times while grinding.

It holds three quarts. I ended up having to buy a bean pot that was 4 1/2 quarts to do 2 pounds of beans.

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 use medium to fine. If you grind your own beans, you may want to experiment with different grinds to find what works best for you.

Thanks!-wanted to know before purchasing, the size of the pot, and this will do for my recipe as it calls for 1lb of beans.

2 lbs. You know...i feel like it has changed. Theres more rice type stuff in it than beans. It's nothing like it looks in the picture. The bigger sized beans were hard to find. I was a bit dissapointed. Anyway yeah its 2 lbs (0.9kg)

I use a one cup measure completely full of beans for a full pot of water using my Bunn drip coffee maker with the grinder set at five. I do enjoy stronger coffee with a touch of pure sweet cream.

I use a bit less than 1/2 cup freshly ground beans. I dilute 1:1 after 12 to 24 hours.

1 pound dry beans will give 2.5 lbs cooked also factor in the fact that you probably get 10 oz of actual beans when you pour off the liquid in the can

It holds a half pound. Ground probably more. Tight seal that contains smell well. The lid has an air release that doesn't allow it to open unless you press it so it will travel well. A weeks worth? Depends how much coffee you drink ;)

I don't know but I would say the same as a 1 lb. bag of powder sugar, I would guess 5 or 6 cups per pound but not sure. Sorry

Enough to fill a double shot basket and have a little left over. We make 2 double shots rack morning and grind one full resivour of beans. Then add another 1/3 resivour to get enough grinds for our 2 double shot lattes.

That's a tough call...I would say at least 6 bags. There must be a site on google that will tell you how much "beans" that you would need. I used it in a small dog bed and had only a little over 1/2 a bag left. It also depends on how firm you want it to be. Good luck!
