What is the minimum amount of beans you can load?

There is no minimal setting and there is no minimum requirement as far as I know. I bought mine used so I did not receive a manual with the grinder. Maybe it says something in the manual.

I've loaded just enough for 4 cups. I'm assuming you could use just enough for one cup.

No I don't think there is a minimum as long as you are reasonable about it.. I don't think I would do less that about a quart, because why go to the trouble otherwise..I usually do about 8-9 lbs, and that fills it up so if you bought 4 at of strawberries for instance you would only halve about 1/4 of the pot filled. I hope this helps! Just contact me again if you have other questions. I have used it for a large number of things

I usually run between 7 and 9 on the grinder, but that varies with each type of bean. You'll want to start around there then dial the grind up or down depending on the extraction pressure. If too low, use a lower (finer) grind setting, if too high, use a coarser setting. Also depends on which filter basket you use:- http://youtu.be/_I37YMFH8Bo

Hi the amount of beans dispensed is variable, it can be one or three. You cannot set the quantity. Charles

You adjust the amount of beans by the setting of cups. I always tend to put in a little extra pre-ground just to make the coffee a bit stronger. If you do buy one of these, be sure to clean the part underneath the bean holder so it doesn't clog up. You really should do it once a week so it works at it's optimum. Hope this helps.

I had to go up to check it out and we did open a 40.5oz can of beans.. I believe it will allow a larger can also. Hope this will be of some help. Chris

Holds about 3 tablespoons of whole beans at one time, so enough between 3 and 4 cups of brewed coffee if you use standard recommendations for brewing.

I believe it was 15-18 beans. However, I recommend finding a different distributor/brand than this one. The beans were improperly packaged and developed white mold within days!

None that I can think of. I love ours. We use it for ground, but I see no issue with whole bean storage.

You don't really -just guess based on the amount of beans you put in. It's easy to just keep adding time if you need more.

Jar storage is what I use. Have not had my beans go bad. 5 lbs last me around 6 mo.

depinend about your grounding size, the more corse your coffee is them more serving you will get per hopper, you have dialler for grounding size it goes from 0 - 14 ... I am using 10-12 and it gives about 8 - 10 full baskets per hopper hope that is useful

I had enough to make 5 1/2 pt bottles of extract. I think 4 or 5 beans per 1/2 pt. I split the beans and after a month it's hard to count them. I will say this The AROMA from the bottles is a wife of heaven. I am making gifts of 1/2 pint bottles. And a big one for me. The beans are perfect.

I can typically grind about 28oz of beans in about 2 - 3 minutes, finishing before my water starts boiling. Not a chore at all.

All you have to do is keep the hopper filled and it only grinds the amount needed. If you select to brew 4 cups of coffee it will only grind 4 cups worth of beans.

Good question. I just made coffee (Mmmmmm) and could not fit 30 grams in at one time. The most I could fit in the grinding chamber at once was 24 grams. But it grinds very quickly so if you have the beans measured out you can easily grind 30 gms in two batches in less than 5 minutes.

Beans would defintiely be too big, but I think the rice might work; you would need quite a bit of rice though.
