#12

Capacity is praised for guest-sized brewing and flexible small or large batches, although reviewers clarify that coffee-maker cups are smaller than typical mugs.

#13

#28

Capacity is mostly positive for full-pot brewing, with praise for 10-cup or 40-ounce output, but one reviewer says it is weaker for smaller brew sizes.

#29

Capacity evidence is mixed: reviewers liked the large water tank and decent hopper, but the milk carafe and grounds capacity can feel limiting for heavier use.

#30

Capacity is generally adequate to good for the hopper and water tank, but the machine itself is large and one reviewer emphasizes counter-space demands.

#31

Serving capacity is flexible for single cups, but carafe capacity control is more limited because only half- and full-carafe sizes are available.
