Are there markings inside the pot for volume? How do you know how much water is in the pot?

Hi John, There are no markings inside the pot. I just measure the amount of water I add.

No markings that I noticed but a one gallon food grade plastic measuring pitcher. Cambro best brand for that

No, that would be great if there were markings but there are not. I use a long spoon that I have marked gallons, 1/2, and 1/4 gallons on.

My kettle has no marks which would be a real convenience. I have an old white plastic five gallon fermenter with gallon markings on the side that I use when filling the kettle. My biggest problem when brewing 10 gallon batches is that I use the kettle as both a mash tun and a boiler, so I must drain the wort into something, dump out the spent grain, clean the kettle, and then pour the wort back into the kettle for boiling. This certainly slows things down on brewing day. I am thinking about simply buying a 15 gallon mash tun which would drain into the kettle, but haven't made up my mind yet.

No markings. 5 gallons comes up right beneath the thermometer. About a quarter inch below. So 6-6.5 gallons is a little above it. It's a great buy though. Never had any problems with this. It's about 25lbs in its own right. They give you 2 extra washers to help out with changing parts-at least that's what came in my box anyways. I will use this for many years.

I installed a sight glass from brewhardware.com There are no markings on the pot, but if you don't want a sight glass (super easy to install) then you can get a large stirring spoon, pour water into kettle at half gallon increments, and mark notches on your spoon/stick. I like sight glass but its not necessary.

I measure it out with a pitcher first. If your making regular size batches of beer you only need to boil 2-3 gallons. So this was way to big I got the 8 gallo. Instead. Which is big enough to do a 10 gallon batch of beer. This pot is beautiful everything about it is perfect!

If I remember correctly, is does not. I use the plastic pails to fill it up since you can see the water level on those.

Yes there is a marker to show you how much water you pored. It is a great coffee maker. The water has a filter system and the coffee is hot and tastes great.

Hello,faI am sorry I can't answer since we moved and have packed all the pots. I think Amazon can request this information from the manufacturer for the benefit of her customers.Cheers,Emmanuel

Amazon sells by pot capacity. Just measure it with a quart size measuring cup.

Here is how to calculate the round pot. Equation: Pi (3.14) times the radius (diameter divided by 2) squared (times itself), times the depth of the pot in inches divided by 231 (231 cubic inches in a gallon of fluid (which includes water)). Example: I have a pot that is 18" in diameter (measure across the top side to side) and 16" deep. These are rough measurements to the inch. Pi = 3.14 The radius is 9" (18" divided by two) The radius squared is 9" X 9" which equals 81. So now we have 3.14 X 81 X 16 = 4,069 (this is the total cubic inches in the pot) 4,069 / 231 = 17.6 (the number of gallons the pot will hold) Now do the same for this pot! (No, I didn't know this - I bing-ed it!

Yes, you can see the amount of liquid inside. No, there is no measurements on the side.

Those markings in the pot are not in cups. I was told the markings are for cooking rice. Still not sure how that works, but I make yogurt using a whole gallon of milk and it doesn't equal those markings when I pour the milk in to the pot. It's such a shame they didn't use actual cup markings! Makes it very confusing!

I use mine for brewing and it doesn't have markings on it. I used a gallon jug and made my own marks. The cost of the pot out weights the fact it is missing the marks. Too easy to use a gallon jug and a punch to make your marks.

There are several liter measurements on the inside and stamped into the container. They are visible when the lid is open for filling.

There is a gradation indicator on the outside to the left of the plastic black handle. It starts at 0 Liters and goes to 1.5 Liters in increments of 4 bars. I can tell you that I fill the pot about 1/4 of the way and am able to fill my 16oz stainless travel mug. Often times the measurement indicators on the inside of a kettle are made of plastic and allow for chemicals from melted plastic to get into your liquids when heating. This is not the case with this pot. I still love the pot and it looks and performs as good as the day I received it.

Hello When we purchase the stockpot it did not have interior measurement markings? If you don't mind, we'd like to know why? Thank you.

I have not seen any such markings in mine. I would be concerned not knowing what made the markings. You may just try to wash and scrub it then boil water for about 5 minutes or so in it.

There's an opaque window on the front that shows the fill level, but it's hard to read unless you have a bright kitchen. We love the coffee pot and use it 2-3 times a day to brew coffee. Another great item we've used for years is a Zevro coffee dispenser. It holds one can of coffee and works great with the brewstation.

There is none, use the water level on the left hand side to determine amount to fill. Use the suggested amount of coffee from the back of the package of coffee to put in basket. Adjust over time to fit your preferences. I use the amount for 10 cups on robust to make an 8 cup pot of coffee [water mark 8]. This the best coffee pot bar none in my experience.

No lines inside pot. Use measuring cup for amount you want. Love this pot and the coffee it makes.

Frankly, I never thought about water capacity. Just checked and the water level shows 1.7L with various lower measurements too. I don't "do" metrics and just guess when filling - roughly, I'd at least a quart. I seldom fill the whole pot but at least half full for using the time setting for getting up to hot water for tea and not having to wait for a conventional teakettle to boil. Love that feature!

There aren't any volume markings on it, but I used an empty water gallon and sharpie to make my own.
