Can the medium press make less coffee than 18 oz., so I can use it when it's just for me and also when I have guests.

I use this for personal use daily. You can make 12pz which I do daily or up to 18-20oz. There are two interior marks to make it easy.

Yes, there is also a 15 oz line in the press. If measure appropriate you can make less as well.

Certainly, just add less coffee/water. There are two lines that are hard to see on the inside of the pot--the bottom line makes a very full large cup, to the top second line gets you about two medium-large cups.

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

I put coarse ground coffee in the press then I use a glass measuring pitcher at 2.5 cups for 4 min in microwave. Pour hot water into the press with the coffee and I brew 7 or 8 min so it little stronger. Yummy!

Technically, yes. Depends on your definition of single cup. I think anything 10 - 12 oz is good. Anything less than that then you might as well get a smaller french press. You don't need an insulated single cup press.

It's actually great for smaller batches. Just make sure that you adhere to the proper ratio when brewing: two level tablespoons ground coffee to every 6oz water and your coffee will be rich and bold.

With a medium/slightly dark roast coffee I was using around 5 tablespoons ground coffee for a full pot. That said I like my coffee a little bit stout and my wife doesn't so that's where We found it to be a good compromise.

According to the manual, page 13, it can be set to make as little as 1 oz., using the "my coffee" selection.

Yes -- you can just add less water/coffee. I usually make 2-4 cups each time. The max is like 10-12 cups, I think.

You can get about 8 oz of coffee per pot. I wish they sold a larger unit, but the coffee is delicious.

There is no control on the machine. You choose the various coffee pods for strength and flavor. It does have 2 settings for cup size, so I suppose if you used the bigger choice, the coffee would be less strong.

You'll just have to experiment a bit. For 2 tablespoons of coffee for 16 oz water, I turn the timer from 6 o'clock (off) to between 8 and 9 o'clock.

Not to my knowledge. I would put less water for a smaller amount of coffee. This coffee maker lasted less then six months. I have given up on Mr.Coffee makers

It depends on how strong you like your coffee. For 8 oz I would suggest two heaping tablespoons. You can adjust it up or down the next time.

Not with this version, which will make as little as about 4 cups and still give you decent coffee. However they do make a 22oz. version, which you can find on Amazon, and I believe that one will make as little as 2 cups (10 oz). Someone said there is a one cup version also, but I haven't seen it.

We routinely make two 12 oz cups, just adjust the grinds accordingly. We love our moccamaster, paired with the breville grinder and Weavers organic blend beans. Coffee bliss

It makes about three cups of coffee if you fill it up to the top. You can always make less, it is a very nice press.

You could, but the coffee will be probably not as good as making the whole pot because it quite difficult to get it right when doing less than the full amount. I would advise making the full pot of coffee and just drink the amount you want. If you are going to drink regularly 3 to 6 cups then I think it would be better to buy the smaller pot. Hope this helps
