can I use already ground coffee in it?

Yes, you push a button when you want to use ground coffee. Sometimes I want a decaf latte in the late afternoon or evening, so I use ground decaf in the machine.

yes, but it's more a one cup at a time, bypass doser so you can put in decaf or something special. to use it just this way would defeat the entire purpose of owning it. it is to make espresso and all drinks related to it. To have the option to use a bypass doser is great though, for the odd time you'll need decaf or someone else will ask you for it.

If you mean pre ground coffee, yes you can add a measured amount of ground coffee to the hopper in the bean area, also you can vary the amount of water to achieve the same result. Its called an Americana. Hope that helps.

Yes, there's a flap on the top you can open and then pour one scoop of ground coffee into. It's not really designed for this, you're far better offf getting beans.

Yes you can. But the little part that holds the coffee grounds is VERY small. I don't even use mine because of that.

We only use the Illy pods and these work very well. I do not think you could use ground coffee with a "home made" filter since everything would become very messy and the machine would not work correctly.

Yes. I use the Ekobrew Stainless Steel Reusable Cup to brew loose tea, homemade cocoa and my own ground coffee blends. Add your blend, brew, rinse and repeat for the next cup.

I would say yes if not tooo fine a grind. It is a fine mesh and if you've ever use a coffee press you would probably get same effect. I haven't done it myself because I don't drink coffee so I don't see why not. Finished pot should contain no grounds. Not to mention that when I was young, my grandmother use to make great coffee by putting the grounds in empty egg shells. The coffee stayed pretty settled at the bottom of the pot inside the egg shells and you poured carefully. So this should work.

Hi it is ground for espresso machines but yes you can use in a standard drip machine as long as your filter is fine. It is not an instant coffee so just adding hot water in a mug isn't recommended. If you just want strong coffee however I'd suggest their standard ground coffee using less water in your Coffee maker for a better result. Enjoy!

Yes you can but, it won't be hot. I returned two because the first one was missing parts,the second one the coffee was not hotand it had electrical defects.

As others have answered, you can use a mason jar. But you shouldn't keep ground coffee for too long. It goes stale very shortly after grinding.

No, fill the water accordingly with amount of ground coffee of your choice and your liking. I didn't follow their instruction of using coarse ground, fine ground works for me.

Sure, it's up to you how much ground coffee you put in the filter. You can experiment. We make our morning coffee every day using the Melitta Cone Filter Coffeemaker.

Hi. You can use any coffee ground from beans to espresso fineness. You can also use pods but freshly ground coffee is best. Enjoy.

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 sure can. That's exactly how I use mine. My Medelco stovetop percolator makes perfect coffee all the time.

You should use only course ground coffee. Either buy a grinder and do it yourself or buy beans at a coffee shop and gave them ground for you.

I think you could if you just used the coffee out of the cup but it is easier to just use ground coffee.
