Will this hold 2 tablespoons of coffee?

I don't know. I use the EZ Cup system, 50 filters with tops for about $5.00. A lot less than the system your asking about, and EZ Cup filters are a very fine mesh that stops the fines (sludge) from passing through. EZ Cup has thought of everything, however, you do have a one time purchase of a filter holder.

No. It holds 1 Tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons. which is the exact amount in a coffee measure. It is also one tsp. less than 2 Tbs (1 TBS = 3 tsps.). The filters fit inside the reusable pods (K-cup) and take the sludge that comes through without the filter. I hate that sludge in the bottom of my cup. These filters make the refillable cups act just like the bought k-cups.

The filter is about 1/4 cup total size, but 2 tablespoons is the most that I would as you have to allow for swelling of the coffee when wet, other wise it will spill over and grounds get in system and cup.

Not really. There's no measuring line on the carafe for smaller amounts, but you could draw a line on the frame or even eyeball it if you're good at that. Quality would be no different, as long as you use the same proportion of grounds to water. The difference in surface area would just result in the coffee cooling down faster than in a 1 or 2 cup French Press.

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

I put 4 tablespoons in my 12 cup coffee maker. Make this and you can adjust from there if you like it weaker or stronger.

I like strong coffee. I fill the water up to the 2-cup mark and add about 2 1/4 or so tablespoons of coffee. I do let it perk for a long time, so perhaps I could use a bit less coffee.

Each pod will hold one and one-half level tablespoons of coffee (22.5 ml). I don't know what that amount weighs. That amount fills the pod level to the top with little room to spare. For my tastes that is one-half tablespoon too many. Hope that helps.

Maybe its your coffee 1 1/2 tbs--tablespoons is a lot to have to use for 6 oz. Buy a darker roast coffee. I use Trader Joe's Dark Roast and the coffee is perfect. I use 1 tablespoon per 8 0z.

It will definitely work to hold the single brew cups. I don't own the 2.0 so I don't know the diameter of the K-Carafe cups.

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.

yes it does have two openings, so you will be able to brew two cups of coffee simultaneously

You'll just have to experiment a bit. For 2 tablespoons of coffee for 16 oz water, I turn the timer from 6 o'clock (off) to between 8 and 9 o'clock.

Three tablespoons of tea is all that this will hold in the bottom half. I doubt that would be enough for two gallons of decent strength tea.

Number 1 is smaller than No. 2: It holds enough for one cup of coffee. The sizes get bigger as the number increases. My office coffee maker for example uses No. 4's.

I use a regular coffee scoop...I think it is 2 tablespoons...and can't get much more that that.

This is a single cup coffee maker. Two tablespoons of coffee is all you need.

It should work just fine. I use it in a 12 cup. The maximum amount of coffee it holds is 7 coffee scoops.
