BUNN NHBX-B Contemporary: Can you make only 2-cups of coffee for the morning commute travel mug with the Bunn.

Dunno if you're still monitoring this, but if four cups will do it for you in the mornings this may be your machine. Experiment with different roasts to get the flavor you like. I've found going to a darker roast gives me the strength I like even less than a full carafe. It'll brew those four cups faster than the Keurig does one with no noise.

In my experience it is best to make only one cup at a time because I like strong coffee so you will want the double dose to go into one cup.

I think the minimum is 6 cups of coffee which is the bottom line indented inside the pot. (That would make you 4 12 oz. mugs of coffee.) You can do a trial run with just water to see how much less will still be enough for the boiling water to perc up to the basket. You may also have to experiment with perc times and amount of coffee to get the strength you want. With less water you may not need to let it go for 10 minutes. I also found that a strong brand of coffee requires less brewing time. Good luck.

You are not supposed to use just one cup. If you use it correctly, it might work. The minimum is .5 liters which is a little over two cups. So many people seem not to follow instructions

Ihave not found one yet. This weekend I used the split basket to make a small amount of coffee. I put my desired amount of coffee, half in each side and brewed it into the carafe [warmed it with hot water while measuring coffee and adding water. USE THE 1-2 CUP SETTING. This takes 2-3 mins longer, but Coffee tasted excellent. Strong, needs less coffee to make just 2 cups. I do not use the travel cups,

Doesn't matter , it's the best so just get one and make it fit somewhere . You can't get a better coffee maker than a Bunn at any price .

Hello Elisabeth, we have the Velocity Brew 10 Cup BXT-B and it works great. According to the paperwork we received with the order invoice it states GoldTone TM Permanent Reusable Basket Coffee Filter, Fits BUNN Coffee Makers. So you should have no problem. One thing we did find with our Bunn, we do not use as much coffee and it taste so much better than our Hamilton Drip Coffee Maker. Just make sure you do not grind your coffee real fine. ENJOY!

That's about right. I make coffee using the "4 cup line on the carafe and it fills my 20 oz commuter mug

no, but if you want more than a standard size coffee cup you will have to use 2 kcups

1. Yes you can make as little as 2-4 cups; you just put in less beans and less water. 2. The coffee maker keeps the coffee hot and stays on for @ 20mins before turning off. 3. Each time you want to brew coffee you have to clean out the grinder and grounds basket, then add water. You can prep it the night before you want to brew. 4. The gold filter is a removable basket, you can use it or paper filters but not both.

I love our Bunn for groups, but for single cups, I use an Aero-Press. Allows single cups on the fly with the flavor of French Press (without the mess of French Press).I don't think a single one-pot-fits-all coffee brewer exists (for me).We carry the Aero-Press on vacations with us and in our RV. It's great to just heat some water and build a cup anytime without the fuss of doing 1/2 pot or an entire pot.

You'd have to brew at least 2x, possibly more depending how strong you like your coffee... using a medium roast & the pulse cycle I get a cup that works for me (think dunkin donuts strength) at about 12oz. It can only hold one pod at a time, it does brew super fast though.

I don't think so. It looks like that coffee maker has a lid that allows the coffee to flow into it when brewing. (What allows the user to interupt the cycle and pour a cup while coffee is dripping). The commercial Bunn does not have that feature, the coffee just drips straight into the pot. Most coffee makers for home use have a carafe with a lid that activates the flow from the filter into the pot, I think if you tried to use the commercial Bunn carafe you'd end up with a big mess of wet grounds pouring out of the top of the filter area.

I don't see why you couldn't. If you sit your two cups beside each other, it would not make a mess as you switch from one cup to the other. It is really easy to keep lifting up and checking the level of the coffee in the cup because I keep doing this to see if I have poured enough water. Something I need to try is pouring a cup back through to do a "double brew" to see if I can do my normal amount of coffee grounds. With all the travel drip systems the main complaint was needing to use more grounds for normal strength and this one is the same in those regards. :) Heather

I have a Hamilton Beach "Stay or Go" Personal Cup Pod Coffeemaker Model 4888OZ and they work great! When using them with the larger mug (16 oz travel size) I use two of them. The first goes into to well like a normal pod, the other goes on top of the divider.

One sachet makes one tasty big mug of coffee. I guess you could also get 2 small cups. Depends on how strong you like your coffee.

I ordered my replacement by remembering the French call 4 oz. a cup of coffee! Their 9 cup carafe is just right for me - it makes two full coffee mugs. If I have company the largest size makes a good five mugs of coffee.
