how many cups does it brew looking for only 8oz.

It is large enough to heat/boil 20oz if you fill to the internal fill reference mark. You can put less water in if you choose to. It's a great little heater. Just be careful, it does use a lot of wattage. I have blown a few breakers in older hotels in Europe. No problems in USA.

The max line is at 0.5 L (500ml or 18oz), but the kettle can quite safely boil up to around 700 ml (25oz) without spilling over - although I wouldn't let 25oz boil hard without the cap on.

Hi Carol, well it doesn't brew, it's just a kettle meaning it only heats the water. - so is only for pouring into a cup in which you have put the tea or instant coffee. The max line is exactly two cups: 16 oz.

I measured the contents of the carafe. Although it is marked 8 "cups", the volume is about 40 oz., which means about 5 oz. per "cup". The cup is probably intended to be a standard coffee cup which comes with a plate set - not the common coffee mug which most people use which is about 12 oz. That being said, the Yama makes about 4 standard coffee mugs per pot. I think you'd have to make at least a half pot (2 mugs full) for good results as not all of the water goes up into the top... any less might not provide enough water in the top to actually do the brewing of the grounds.

I dont recommend, bcoz it will taste watery. One single cup at a time. But if you want to brew for 8oz, you can do it at the same time for two cups

I do believe you mean an 8 CUP not 8 ounce (it is a 32 ounce)... and while I do not own a Starbucks French Press, you can measure the dimensions and check them against the dimensions given in the details of the Bodum carafe profile. Wishing you many good cups...

I think it may be because the "cup" referred to by the manufacturer is only 6 oz. and not 8 oz., which is the volume of a true cup.

It's 350ml or 11.5 0zA cup is 8 oz, so it is less than 2 cups in capacity. I use it in a one coffee cup press

Well, 16oz is a pound and 8oz is one cup, so two cups. It seems to be a bit more than 2 cups, perhaps 2-1/4 cups is in the bag.

You need room for the coffee and the press filter, so 3.5 cups is what I usually get. You get 3 "clean" 8oz cups- after that it can get a bit "muddy" depending on your grind (coarse is better), how long you let it settle (patience grasshopper) and if you pour it all out slowly at one go (going back to the upright position between pours muddies it). The press is 34 oz. so therefore, roughly between 3 to 4 cups.

It does not make 6 8oz. cups as it is an espresso maker. The ounces would be more like 2 or 3 oz. Remember it is very strong and a little goes a long way. It makes two regular cups easily with of course some milk added. I am very happy with my purchase. My main concern was that it was made from stainless steel and not aluminum.

As you know it should brew 12 cups...suggest you return and obtain a replacement.Danny

You can get 8oz at one time. The instructions for both the coffee and the tea options will tell you to fill a 16oz cup with ice and use 8oz of water in the machine (and the machine will only take the 8oz of water in at a time.

I don't think the cup size matters as it's all dependant to what size you pick when brewing the coffee. Is 8oz, 10oz, 12oz

I posted the exact dimensions in a previous answer. You can make from 2 to 8 cups.

it has the regular size from a 12 cup but style is space saver. Yes, you could make less then 8 cups.

I believe its only 6 cups. I had a 10 previously and its definitely not that big.

Just over one cup. I've never really measured it, but will do so now - hold on.8oz or one cup precisely.

It has markings for 6 and 8 cups, these are European 5oz cups. I wouldn't go much below the 6 or you won't get enough water to properly brew. So I would say about 25oz.
