How long does it take to brew a mug of coffee
1877886
If you select the option to brew a cup (versus a carafe) and choose mug size 4 of 9 (there are 9 size options!) I think it takes about 6 or 7 minutes. The timing also depends on the flavor profile you choose - if you like it more robust (like I do), the machine will dispense the water into the grounds and hold it there a while to let it steep.

Time will depend on strength of coffee & size of mug. I use it much like a French press - so it is steeped before dispensing. The flavor is AMAZING. If you just want to brew, its quicker. I had Keurig cup yesterday - NOT in the same league, not even close.

It depends upon the mug size as well as your flavor setting (steeping time.) Typically 5-7 minutes for a large (16oz) cup.

It will vary on the size of cup you choose and the steeping time you choose. The steeping time is controlled by the "flavor" setting. The amount of coffee that is ground is controlled by the "strength" setting. I brew the largest mug (which is about 4 cups* of coffee) into my carafe. It takes a good 10 minutes. The clock changes to a count down meter to tell you how long before it is done. If I were to tell the machine to brew 4 cups into the Carafe using the carafe setting and not changing anything on the flavor or strength setting, it would brew in just a couple of minutes (about 5, I never really timed it) but it will grind much more coffee because it is not using the steep process. Because there are no standardized cups, this assumes every cup of coffee is 5oz. Not in my book, probably not yours either. You've got to hand it to Breville, their coffee maker is smarter than we are. I believe they have thought of everything for this model and it makes wonderful coffee. Better than any restaurant, hotel, casino, coffee house. It's not a coffee maker you're just able to take out of the box and get it right the first time. Once you adjust your thinking as to what the "flavor" and "strength" setting do, you'll discover your utopia. You will have to experiment with it though. I was lucky, I found my "utopia" after just 3 tries. *the 4 cups is what the tank says it uses to brew my "mug" of coffee.

I only brewed a mug of coffee once but I would guess about 3-4 minutes. I had it on the mild setting though. The mug was not as strong as the pot. If you like strong coffee then I would definitely recommend this coffee maker.

It really does depend on the size of the mug you choose and the intensity...5-8 minutes is my best guess...I usually brew a half carafe...

Only used the single brew once. Uses too much coffee beans. Takes longer because water steeps longer over burr grind. 4 to 5 minutes seems right.
1877893
I usually do a full pot and it takes *about* 10 minutes, but I also did a large mug with a coffee sample I got and it took only about 4-5 minutes.
1877894
Brewing a cup of coffee depends on your settings. I brew a medium-size mug and use the middle settings for strength, and it takes about six minutes. If you like stronger coffee or use a larger mug, it'll take longer.

I pretty much agree with all of the prior answers, some in the "it depends" category. You can brew a mug of coffee from pre-ground, or from Breville-ground. Either is in the range of 4-5 minutes.

I have never brewed a single mug, I usually brew a 10 Cup Carafe, and that takes about 12 minutes, using pre ground coffee.

Depends on cup size. I do a large mug and it takes about 5-6 minutes. Because it uses much less coffee for single cups, it is necessary for it to steep the coffee for a few minutes before filling the cup. Love it, make a single mug for myself every morning.

You can choose from 5 different sizes of mugs! I've never timed it but it's fast.

No, however, grind coffee medium, grind (for 4-6 cups) and add to filter. Fill with cold water, leave in frig or on counter. Coffee is ready in about 7-10 hours.

I think the minimum is 6 cups of coffee which is the bottom line indented inside the pot. (That would make you 4 12 oz. mugs of coffee.) You can do a trial run with just water to see how much less will still be enough for the boiling water to perc up to the basket. You may also have to experiment with perc times and amount of coffee to get the strength you want. With less water you may not need to let it go for 10 minutes. I also found that a strong brand of coffee requires less brewing time. Good luck.

Let the water boil over the coffee longer. We boil the water for about 5 to 10 minutes

Coffee will stay hot longer if you preheat the mug. I start by pouring near boiling water from my kettle into the mug and then into the coffee press. After letting the coffee grounds seep for about 10 minutes I plunger the coffee press, pour out the hot water in the mug and pour the hot coffee into the mug, adding sugar and cream to taste before sealing up the mug.

I usually make 8 cups, 3/4 of a pot and it takes about 5 minutes from start to drinking time. It would probably take one more minute to brew a full pot since the largest amount of time is spent bringing water up to brewing temperature. Say 6 minutes for a full pot.

It takes 20 minutes for it to brew 10 cups of coffee.... I read somewhere to figure 1 minute per cup, but that must kick in when doing a full or almost full urn.

10-15min to make a awesome cup of coffee is normal. You want FAST crappy coffee? go to starbucks. Coffee beans take time to presoak and cooked heated boiled, milked whatever to make the perfect aroma'ed coffee. Time to enjoy that coffee.

It takes about 5 minutes to brew. If you have a refrigerator that makes ice, then it;s great. If you are limited by the amount of ice on hand, it can be disappointing, because it does use a lot of ice every time you brew. Hope this helps

The longer you run it the finer the coffee gets. 30-60 seconds will get you a finely ground coffee.

Only several minutes, this is the best coffee maker I have ever had and when I have guest they are very impressed, it is beautiful and works fine

Mine takes about 6 minutes. This brand has lasted much, much longer than Mr. Coffee brand. I am very satisfied with it.

I have the 4 cup model, which is supposed to make 6 ounces. Some water stays in the bottom, so about 4.5 to 5 ounces of coffee is brewed. I heat about one ounce of water in a mug in the microwave while the pot is brewing, then pour the coffee into the hot water to dilute it.

The brew time is approx 1.5 hours; steep the grains about 30 mins, and boil up to an hour. Start to finish, with setup and cleanup allow yourself several hours so you are not rushing things, read and follow all the directions and you will be happy with the results....

It takes me between 10 and 15 minutes to grind enough coffee for a french press coffee maker. I tend to use quite a bit of coffee. Hope this helps.

I haven't timed it. Offhand, I would say that it takes about as long as one of those small coffee makers that are found in most hotel rooms. I'll time it over the weekend and give you a better answer on Monday.

Standard button about 10 minutes (same as MR Coffee) Aroma button about 20 minutes (10-12 cups)
