We have 12 Sta-Warm pots, each one holds 8 cups with an ASTM calibrated thermostat, these pots are about $500.00 ea, we also have 105 of the old Lee pots which range from $35-$45 that are still being used, I myself prefer and pour from the Sta-Warms, its all in preference. I prefer the larger volumn pots because primarily it is less times back and forth to the microwave and I can run 8 cups out pretty quickly
