Well, espresso is served in those tiny little "cups", right? That's
probably what they meant.

I've got a four-cup coffee pot that makes two mugs of coffee. It's
theoretically four six-ounce cups, but it's actually closer to five ounces
each. I tried pouring water in from a measuring cup instead of using the
pot one time, and it went all over the counter.
