Can you puree and liquify the full 14 cups? I bought a Hamilton Beach and it only holds about 5 cups of liquid then it leaks out all over the bottom

It holds a lot and I have pushed the limits but, never measured exact cups. I know what you mean about leaking on the bottom, had that happen with a different one, not with this one. I mainly make sauces and salsas.

No. There is actually a small hole just above the 4 cup mark so the water would run out. It is a very fast coffee maker though so you might be able to just quickly make an extra cup.

There is no way the 9 cup model will hold 9 cups of liquid!!! The center post is too low. If you need 9 cups buy the 12 cup model.

I have a slightly larger one and my takes a half of cup of water. I would try a quarter to a third cup. You will know when you have too much water it will not fit likes its suppose to.

Check your receipt from Amazon for the company who supplied the chubby mug. I had a leaky one and I contacted them through the procedures stated on Amazon for defective mdse. You should be able to do it this way and explain what you need. One of my mugs came from a company called Clockwork Synergy, LLC. Good Luck

Once this is fully saturated you can fold it. I have folded it and doesn't seem to make it leak. But make sure it is fully hydrated.

Hi Victoria:I delayed answering your email because I wanted to be 100% sure I was correct. I went home and made a pot of (Mountian Blue) coffee. I filled it up to 5 cups - on the glass carafe it was just a tad under the max line and not a drop spilled. So short answer your pot is defective :(

On the 14 Cup unit, it's about 10 cups. It only leaks a few drops when I overfill it. Liquids go up into the blade shaft also, so make sure to check that when cleaning.

No. Just fill to how many cups you want. Had it for awile now and love it for the value.

You'll need to run another cycle, either of the same type, or you can get creative and add a chocolate or an extra espresso.They have now come out with new Gevalia & Maxwell House breakfast coffee discs which do produce more, using one overflowed my usual cup which was never filled by the original size. I found the new large ones at Bed Bath & Beyond. Use the 20% off coupon that they send out weekly in the mail.

Coffee is my business, LOL So, if you have a drip coffee pot put filtered water in the reservoir up to 8 and then put toddy in the glass craft to the 2 and let it brew!!!I

You have to make at least half a pot of coffee, so it probably wouldn't be a good one for you. If not used consistently, the water evaporates, too.

You are not supposed to use just one cup. If you use it correctly, it might work. The minimum is .5 liters which is a little over two cups. So many people seem not to follow instructions

You can, but it doesn't use all of the water you put in so doesn't make the 6 cups that it promises.

Mine also leaked. I contacted Hamilton Beach and returned it. Perhaps you'll need to do the same.

Because it is leaking. I had the same problem and called Hamilton Beach and they are sending me a new unit. Had a choice of whether to wait until the end of the month when they will have a new improved one of the same model or a different model. I chose to go for a different model. All I had to pay is $13.00 for shipping.

Go big or go home, you can always use less water and coffee. I had the 6 cup and I had to brew 3 of them in order to receive my daily caffeine fix. The coffee was outstanding but waiting for it to brew was about a 15-20 minute wait.
