They say 12 - 14 cups, but how many ounces of coffee does it make?

Depending on the amount of water you put in the unit, approx. 20-22 ounces in my experience.

I have the 6 cup model. I just measured the amount of water used to fill the base to the recommended level: 10½ oz. This one's double that size, so 21 oz. more or less. Maybe more, because it's 12-14; maybe less, because the grounds absorb water and some is lost as steam.

A shot of espresso is about 2.5 oz or less according to most experts. Starbucks shot is 1 oz. If you take the cups they list, figure 2 oz per cup.I would guess that it makes 24, to 38 oz of espresso depending on the amount of water, and grounds you place in it. It will fill 2, 20 oz coffee cups close to the brim, I can make 3 20 oz lattes with one pot.

I don't know about ounces. We never measured. But, we fill the press with the appropriate amount of course ground coffee, let it seep for four minutes and then plunge the press. We get three cups (not mugs) of coffee. Pretty good coffee, and the press because of its design and insulation factors, holds the third cup pretty hot. How many ounces in a cup? Three times whatever is a pretty good estimate. Hope this helps.

It makes 2 to 8 cups, but the coffee tastes best when you make at least 4, I've found.

Typically coffee maker "Cups" are 5 ounces or smaller. Per Cuisinare theirs are 5 ounces so a 12 cup brewer will produce 60 ounces. Espresso or Turkish coffee cups may be even smaller and some other makers of drip coffee makers use slightly smaller "cups" too so measure how much water your maker needs to fill it to the full level to determine cup size if it is not listed in the manual. Per Jeremy's math and if the pot's volume listed is correct it should hold just under 17 five ounce "Cups" or 4+ of my 20 ounce insulated mugs of coffee.

I own one, and wondered about the same thing. ( The 12 cup one) So I measured how many 8 oz cup it would hold. I found out it holds 7 8 oz cups plus 1/4 cup+ two more ounces. So their cup is smaller than and actual cup. 58 oz divided by 12= 4.83 oz.

There is a gage on the side for the amount of water to make coffee. It starts at 2 and goes up to 12. So you can make any amount you want. I like to make the 12 cup and save some in the refrigerator for iced coffee or to reheat the next day. It make a great cup of coffee, but watch out it is very hot. I usually put an ice cube in the cup if I use creamora or a powered creamer.

It makes aproximately 10 ounces of coffee, it's an expresso coffee maker so, if you use a strong coffee blend you'll be able to make at least two strong lattes or three cafe americanos. Ours is almost two years old and still works great, it's fast and easy to care for.

I use a drip coffee maker and make a full 12 cup pot and fill the dispenser with that- I'm assuming the cup measurement on the coffee pot is for 6 oz. cups.

With coffee and tea a 'cup' is usually considered 5-7 fl oz. In this brewer, it's 5 fl oz. So, 12 cups is just under 60 oz of brewed coffee (accounting for water left in the grounds and a little evaporation). Measure your mugs and divide into 60. I have some huge mugs marked 16 oz, but that's to the top. I actually pour about 13-14 oz into them, so I'd get about 4.5 mugs - equal to nearly 3 normal 'cups'. That's a lot of coffee! :) I don't think you're really going to find a larger residential brewer, whether it's this 'on demand' style or a standard carafe. Everything I've seen has 40-60 oz reservoirs and carafes (8-12 5-oz cups). With coffee and tea a 'cup' is usually considered 5-7 fl oz. In this brewer, it's 5 fl oz.

We use about 1oz to a 12oz mug, that equates to about 70-75 8oz cups. Depends on your taste as to how strong you make it.

Yes, simply adjust the water and grounds to your needs for the moment - however, the indicator shows up at 14 cups, so if you are brewing less than that, then it may be a little difficult to judge.

Good question. 6 fluid ounces in a "cup." For some reason this is typical on coffeemakers, perhaps since before we started using mugs, which these days can easily hold 12 ounces, there were "coffee cups" that typically held 6 ounces of coffee. I just measured and 24 ounces came to about the 4 cup mark on the water reservoir.

I have the big one that makes 8 [6 oz.] cups of coffee. So I would say 48 ozs. But there is more room for another 6 oz. if you so wish.

I was able to pour just shy of two cups of water into the mug so I'd say 12 ounce mugs. The water left in the measuring cup was maybe 2 ounces max.

when they say 12 cups its not 12 coffee mugs.. :O) 12 cups would probably be filled up to the neck.

It officially holds 14 oz. I set my coffee maker for 10 oz so I can add cream and sweetener without problem

Four cups is the amount listed in the manual which is really around 2 mugs of coffee. I do this almost every morning.
