Is it true I have to grind twice to make 8 cups if coffee

It depends on how strong you like your coffee. We make ours in a 12 cup coffee pot and I put 5 scoops of grounds in. It would take two grinding runs to produce that amount of coffee grounds, however its just a touch of a button and 30 seconds to do it so its relatively quick and pain free.

Maybe. But that depends on how strong you like your coffee. I like my coffe medium strong and I grind for about 7 seconds for a 14oz mug.

Absolutely not. I have used 20 seconds with an empty jar a number of times to brew 8 cups of freshly ground coffee.

One cup would be difficult as there is a minimum amount of water you need to put in there to get it to work. Two cups would be OK...but keep in mind, the larger the pot of coffee, the better it works.

I think this partly depends on your comfort with the grinder. I'd say maybe 15 seconds for an 8-cup french press, which is what I used. If you struggle with getting the groove, you might find beans jumping occasionally or you will get "stuck" during a rotation. Once you know your preferred surface and get in the groove with the right even pressure, it's a piece of cake.

You can choose 2,4,6,8, or 10 cups, add the water necessary for each, and it automatically grinds enough beans. Oh yes you can also choose three different strengths of brew, we like the strongest.

Yes. There is a selector switch on top of the coffeemaker that allows you to brew a single cup of coffee or two cups at once.

I think so, yes. It has settings as low as 4 cups of liquid coffee. I typically use about 3 scoops of coffee beans to make 5 cups of coffee. I do that regularly. (Btw, don't let the setting for the number of cups throw you too much; it just controls how long the grinder runs.)

Yes you can do it. The coffee container/filter has marks for 2 and 4 cups of grounded coffee, so, you can measure half way up to the "2 cups" mark and you will have coffee to make 1 cup.At the begining, I found kinda hard to measure both time and coffee, but after two or three tries, I found the right amount of coffee and brewing time to have a nice cup of coffee (I usually like very strong coffee, so, I use the 4 cups line to make 2 cups of, i.e., moka).

Nope. I always just make one as I like my coffee strong. They are close enough together to both pour into one cup.

By trial and error. It depends on how much coffee you like to use for each cup. If you grind a little more just save it for next time.

I usually grind one upper chamber full plus half for an 8 cup French press. basically get the whole lower compartment full for the French press

Short answer YES. Whether I select 8oz or 14oz the coffee is brewed correctly

This depends on the type of grinding, if you grind the maximum for espresso, you will get less than you grid for filter coffee (12 cups at one time for filter, and 4 shots for espresso); You still can adjust the amount of shots or the cups using the front painel...

Makes 2-8 cups. If you only need two cups it can make that of 8 cups if you need more..

In about a year of daily coffee making with about 9-13 TB per pot, I have only had grounds come though 1 or 2 times. The reason it came through that time was because there was some finer grinds mixed in and i forced it without giving it time for the grounds to settle.

My answer to your question is yes. This device works very well and grinds the coffee to the very last bean and does so according to your setting....and it is not hard at all to adjust the grind to your liking. You have to use a little elbow grease, but the result is great.

The 8 cup measure is a little confusing, it actually produces 34 ounces of coffee, which to my taste is equal to 2 of the scoops. You can make half that amount with one scoop. You could make almost any amount if you experiment with the coffee water ratio.

Mine makes 28 ounces of pressed coffee, filled to 5/8 of an inch from the top. I use about 1/2 cup of ground coffee. Coffee machines consider 5 ounces to be a cup, so an eight cup pot is 40 ounces. This Bodem Presso does not make 8 cups. I think you could get 30 ounces or 6 cups if you use less coffee or a little more water than I do.If you want 60 ounces of coffee to share with friends, you can double the amount of coffee grounds, fill each cup 1/2 way with strong pressed coffee, and add an equal amount of boiled water to each cup.
