Does Your Cup Runneth Over With Coffee?

Here’s an oft-asked question, this time from one of our Facebook Fans, author David Mitchell:

David Mitchell Stephan ~ By volume, how many ounces are there in a cup of coffee? Is there a standard size for a cup?

Big City Coffee Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, 6oz was standard…now, it’s more like 4.5-5 oz per “cup”. Beware the markings on various makers’ pots and reservoirs…I love my “8 cup” Rhone French Press, but darned if I can see how they are anything other than demitasse…your results may vary, adjust accordingly…(you must have noticed we don’t include directions with our coffee!)
