How tall a glass can I use with this machine when using the espresso maker? What kind of "clearance" does it have? 2 1/2 inches? 3 inches?

3 inches is okay but you can use it without the cup tray, giving you an extra 1.5 inch of space

The Catamount 2 cup measures 5" exactly. I have a Keurig coffee maker and it fits under with room to spare. My only complaint is that it does not have 1/3 or 2/3 measures only 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4. No biggy but it seems a bit odd. Hope this helps Pamela. Joy

The carafe is about 3 1/4 inches tall. With the plastic lid, it is just under 4 inches tall.

Hi Stephanie....it is 12-1/2" tall....plus, it really lets off quite a bit of steam when brewing, so I don't think it will work for you.

This carafe is very tall - I doubt it would fit under any coffeemaker I know of

I don't use 1/2 & 1/2, but it will pretty much foam anything. The little whisk spinning action will incorporate air into it to produce foam. I like my Aeroccino, but nothing replaces the steam wand of a espresso machine. That being said, I continue to use my Aeroccino.

I'm not real great at measuring but I do believe 2 3/8 would be the size. With the lip around the opening it's kind of hard to measure. We've very impressed with the carafe.

I bought this for my daughter and she is in the process of moving and it is packed. She said that a standard shot glass just fits. Those are usually only 2 inches high. Hope this helps.

JJ,I just measured the filter basket for the A10 and it is exactly 3 1/2" high. The distance between the plate where the basket slides in and the top of carafe is 4". So there is a 1/2" space between the bottom of basket and carafe top when set in place. Hopefully the height of the HG basket is within this range.I have looked on several Bunn supplier websites searching for a s/s basket of this size, but no luck. If the HG basket fits these measurements, let me know the model number. Thanks for the info...- Jeff

You can use up to a 3" cup - the coffee is still great and espressolike in this cup. The 2": take it when you want the real good espresso taste. 4" is to big.

It is 6 1/2 inches tall. It also has a rubber disc glued to the bottom of the mug/cup, so if your coffeemaker has a stand that also heats up the bottom of your coffee pot/cup, you may want to remove the glued rubber disc first, but if your coffee maker has a non-heating plate to place your coffee pot/cup on, then this rubber disc should not be a problem.

I agree it is too tall for any known machine. However, I use it with a drip cone and a couple of refills. Actually, I use it with a gold filter and although that filters out a lot of the coffee dust, it is worth the extra trouble to me.

I'm looking for the same item because I have a small espresso machine that has a footprint much smaller than the smallest burner. Is there anything that's on the market for such an issue? Glass tops are a pain.

Most coffee mugs will not fit. The clearance is about 3 5/8" and most mugs are about 3 1/2" or just a little more.

5.5" is the exact clearance. It is not quite tall enough for most travel mugs to fit under. You can slide slightly taller mugs up under the spout but then you have to tilt them to get them back out and run the risk of spilling coffee out. To fill a travel mug I usually just brew the java into this thing: http://amzn.to/1gULGnt and then pour it in the travel mug. I leave that stainless pitcher under the spout all day anyway so that when the machine turns off and on and spews hot water to clean the spout, it is collected in this little pitcher instead of in the base of the machine. It's a little easier to pour out the pitcher than the base of the machine. 5.5" is the exact clearance. It is not quite tall enough for most travel mugs to fit under.
