I bought this just coffee after buying the same in "3 cups", which was really small (3 cups, yes, but three thimbles). This model is perfect for our little café noon we drink two cups in "French", ie cups that serves you coffee in the home. The coffee is excellent after a few tries not very conclusive. Especially it is necessary 1 / not to pack the coffee, 2 / leave the hood open during the rise of the water to avoid the bitter taste of burnt coffee. Thus you will get great coffee, not sparkling like coffee bistro, but very fragrant.
