small coffee urn

Capacities vary widely across small coffee makers — listings show volumes from about 17 ounces up to 60–61 ounces. Common smaller capacities you’ll see include 25 fl oz (often labeled as a 5-cup unit), as well as 34 oz and 35 oz models.

Small coffee makers can be either manual (nonpowered) or electric. Product listings commonly note either “Power Source: Manual” or “Power Source: Electric.”

Small coffee makers use a range of filter types, including flat filters, permanent metal/screen filters, basket filters, disposable paper filters, and reusable filters.

Common materials include stainless steel (including 18/10 stainless), borosilicate glass and regular glass, various plastics, cork accents, and some aluminum components.

Small coffee makers cover single‑serve options and small carafes. Common cup counts shown include 4 cups and 5 cups (often listed as 25 fl oz total), and 8 cups; some machines also offer single‑serve modes or, in a few cases, larger carafe modes up to 12 cups.
