My mug is about 1&frac12; cups. If I press the dispense button a 2nd time, will it overflow or can stop it?

The machine dispenses as long as you hold the mug against the button. It doesn't meausure a cup for you.

I agree but if I use refillable cups, I just fill it full and hit the largest cup then the smallest cup and that fille my 16oz mug and still gives me room for creamer. I do wish there was a larger cup setting.

Immediately pressing the button again after first pressing it to brew just simply pauses the brew. After using a capsule once, technically you could brew a second time with it - but please don't. The capsules are made for single use and the second brew wouldn't taste right. I always want a larger cup of coffee, so I typically use 2 capsules and fill my cup with 2 of the "double espresso" (aka the larger button of the two size options). This comes out to about the size of a typical American cup of coffee - but stronger!

No you have measure it 1st. I found the best way is use the mug I am using & pour the number of cups I think I'm going to drink or just use carafe .

It will make more than 2 cups. I make 1large mug each time and that is 16oz size. But I can add more water if I wanted to. I would say you can make 3x 8oz cups.

If you are filling the reservoir it should make 12 cups. It starts brewing when you press the button. If you are dispensing coffee within a minute or two, it can not keep up. If you wait until the signal that brewing is complete, then you should have as many cups of coffee as you added water. I hope this helps.

You have to press kind of hard to dispense it so it might crush your cup. But, you can push the lever with your hand, as Jonathan mentions.

HI, you will need to pump it or hold the button down. I pump mine a few times to fill the cup faster. It will fill with 1 pump , buts gets a little slow. Hope this helps. Rita

Depends on the size of the mug. There are two of them. One smallish, the other bigger.

Place the one shot holder in, and put the espresso cup in the middle, right underneath it. It looks like it will spill over the sides of the cup, but it should be just the right size. It works for me.

I think everyone has had this happen. You stated that it usually overflows on your second cup, are you using fresh cold milk? I've tried "re-frothing" the leftover milk (which is up to the minimum level) for a second cup. It tries to hard and over flows. I've found that if it appears like it's going to overflow, I just pull the frothing cup out. No mess.

If you slide the dual opening spout off, you can put the travel mug under the single opening remaining. Push the button on the top of the silver dual spout and pull off. I do this all the time...then replace it again for my regular mugs. As a single person...I've saved lots of money by NOT wasting coffee by making too much...PLUS I can have a really good cup (any size) at any time with no fuss!

Hi. When I make a full cup, extra water, leave the second coffee pod in the machine, then hold the big button down, the one with the silver circle around it. Hold down until water no longer comes out. Now you have a full cup.

I just checked mine and two 8 oz cups made it mostly full and three made it full but not overflowing. Hope that helps.

If you added a cup of batter to this cupcake mold, it would definitely overflow! This is jumbo sized and works great with a 1/2 cup of batter. They become 1 cup when baked. Look for extra jumbo cups, don't know if they exist though!

Well my mug holds about 2 1/2 cups give or take and the tea maker was perfect for it. I wouldn't fill the tea maker and use a small mug. Just a good (normal) sized mug does the trick :)

I think it's fair to say that there are a couple of versions of this device. The version I have will fill up, and sit on top of a large standard size mug. Think the size of one of the collectable geographic mugs from Starbucks. Maybe a little more than that if you were to fill the device to the absolute tip top. I believe that the other version of the device must be smaller, either that or people like to complain that this device won't work with their preposterously large mugs.
