How to measure to make 2 cups

Most people use a heaping tablespoon of ground coffee to 6-8 ounces of water. This seems to be the right proportion and makes a "reasonably strong" cup of coffee. If you want stronger add a standard teaspoon to the mix.

You can buy something that notes cup measurements. I would think you could buy one in a 99c store.

I usually add 2 spoonful (included spoon) of ground (close to espresso) coffee and proceed as instructed to make 2 cups.I usually boil 2-3 cups of water =-add enough water to make coffee and top it after to 2 cups. Coffee is great

I use an aero press and it comes with a scoop. Most people just use a standard tablespoon for one scoop of coffee it is really a matter of personal preference.http://www.amazon.com/Aerobie-AeroPress-Coffee-Espresso-Maker/dp/B0047BIWSK

It is best if you extract everything into one carafe, then divide into your two cups. Your taste may vary, but i would use 3-4 scoops of coffee, place the press over the carafe, add hot water up to the #4 marker, stir until some of the coffee drains to reach the #2 marker, then insert the plunger and press the rest of the coffee out. You do need to build up the volume of air above the coffee liquid before squeezing because the air helps push out the extract retained by the wet grounds. Then you can divide the concentrated extract equally into the two cups and dilute with hot water as needed.

Truth be told I've never used the cup supplied. I use a basic measuring cup and that works perfectly. Don't sweat the cup that is supplied. Happy cooking...M

One cup is 8oz, two cups would be 16 oz, the remaining 6 oz is space for the processing of the machine.

.375 cups, I use 3/4 of a cup of beans for a pot of coffee, but I need to fill the holder twice. Also so there is no spillage I use a pyrex measuring cup.

It's a 2 cup measuring cup. I use it for everything because you can see the level of fill by looking down inside the cup rather than from the side. Very handy. I like it so well, this was my second purchase.

From the manual of a similar 42-cup urn, here are the measurements of ground coffee you will need to brew 42 servings and other amounts of coffee. (NOTE: You may know this, but cups are not cups! When measuring the ground coffee, use standard kitchen measuring cups, which are eight ounces by volume. However, when thinking of the "cups" you will drink, know that the coffee urn is probably calibrated at five ounces per serving -- also called "cups" but not the same thing.) Here are the measurements: --To make 42 cups, use 2 cups ground coffee --To make 36 cups, use 2 cups ground coffee --To make 30 cups, use 1 cups ground coffee --To make 28 cups, use 1 2/3 cups ground coffee --To make 24 cups, use 1 cups ground coffee --To make 22 cups, use 1 cups ground coffee --To make 18 cups, use 1 cups ground coffee --To make 12 cups, use 1 cups ground coffee

If you use a 8 oz. Cup measure, you will get 2 cups to a pound, and 3 pounds will give you 6 cups. However, if you are measuring by grams, some say this is the most accurate way to measure, 140 grams would equal one cup.

For the first time, I used two of the measuring cups it came with. After that, I would only use one.

Measuring cup and 1/2. We use a measuring cup with a spout for an easy pour. We also use a large, flat-bottomed paper filer as well for easier clean up. (Can you guess? We like things easy.) We love our Zevro.

I use two (standard size) 3oz. espresso cups. Since the on/off is manual, you can fill the cups as much or as little as you desire.

OK I measured my two cups. The ONE CUP size is 3.75" wide and about .50 inches thick when closed. The two cup one is about 4.5" wide and about .50 thick when closed. They seem sturdy, I have had the two cup one for a while and its still fine. Hope this helps

I usually cook 3 cups and it takes 35 to 40minutes. So I would guess 2 cups might take 30 to 35 minutes.

This cup is too big and wide for measuring 1/2 and 2/3 cups precisely. Even if the container had such markings, I doubt I would use it for these measurements. If it doesn't need to be exact, then I would convert and 'eyeball' it.

Take the cup you wish to serve in and fill it 4 times plus a bit more... you can pour into a measuring vessel. It only makes as much as you pour in...

Dan,What you pour in is what you get back in return. Either fill pot to approximately 4 cups or you can measure out 4 cups.
