Can you put coffee grounds in it?

We do, and I cannot think of a reason why you could not. We make about a dozen shots of espresso a day and dump most of the pucks into the compost. Caveat: we do use a "biobag" to line the pail, so the grounds are not in contact with the stainless steel. But even so, I think you could probably dump them right into the unlined pail without a problem.

Yes! There are more coffee grounds in my compost than anything else. I do line the pail with the biodegradable bags.

The majority of my contents is coffe grinds, tea bags & contents. It does not harm the inside. I do let the stuff dry on a plate before putting in. Wet coffee grinds has a tendency to mold quickly.

Yes, you can add brewed coffee, it's glass so it shouldn't absorb the coffee flavor, but you can't use it to brew coffee, the filter is to course for grinds.

Yes. There is an adjustment that will slow down the dripping through the ground coffee so you can use a smaller amount of water and coffee to brew the amount you want. I use this every day to make just one large mug of coffee. It might take you a few times to get just the right amount of water and coffee to suit your taste, but it does make a great cup of coffee.

Yes, you can use ground coffee. There is a place at the top of the machine where you put the ground coffee and press a button to switch to ground coffee. It doesn't store the ground coffee like it does the whole bean.

Well, technically you could do that. However, it would not taste as delicious as pouring freshly boiled water on freshly ground beans. You would have to give it a stir to ensure it all mixed in and it would just not be the same. However, in a pinch, it would totally work. Please don't tell any coffee lovers you did it though. ;) Just be sure the water temp isn't super high.

You can use loose ground coffee. The one cup maker has a filter with an extremely fine mesh that keeps the coffee grounds from flowing to your cup.

You can still make coffee with it, but it won't have an even filter of water over the entire container of coffee. I would say yes, to have a great cup of coffee.

You can put your coffee in it. But the pressure of the water puts grounds everywhere and you have to clean it out. I use it with a tea bag in it. And it works great!!!! Anything loose is useless

No. This takes pre filled k cups or you can buy a filter cup and use regular coffee grounds in it.

you can but i would wait till it fills past the four cup mark.it takes a few cups to get the coffee warm enough.

No. You use the paper filters with the pour overs. You pour water through first to wet the filter. Toss the water in the cup. Then add the grounds and then pour the water through. Great coffee.

Yes, you can. You can buy a re-usable K-cup and put any kind of ground coffee or tea into it that you want.

No. Maybe but boil the water separately. Don't put the immediate boiling water so as not to burn the coffee. Wait a few secs.

No. Not designed for it. It might possibly work but the ground coffee would probably not feed efficiently thru the grinder.

No. What ever you use needs to be ground. So either buy ground coffee or grind it yourself. Hmmm. Sounds good right about now.

There is a separate outlet for ground coffee but is restricted to one cup at a time. You can not used ground coffee in the main bean container. Use of the one cup slot is messy and requires cleaning after each use. I would not recommend if you intend to primarily use for ground coffee. BUT FRESH BEANS ARE BETTER ANYWAY!!

Hi, assuming the holes on the filters are not obstructed or defective, using coarse ground coffee might work. If the coffee is too finely ground like a powder (like Turkish coffee), it can clog up the holes. Perhaps setting your grinder (or asking your coffee store) to grind your coffee at drip or french press setting will work.
