I wouldn't try making a single cup of expresso with an inexpensive American machine, but it might work OK. Maybe this will help - A "shot" of expresso is about 1.7 fl oz - 50 ml. For a cappucino, you then add an equal amount of foam and milk. The result is 150 ml product which equal 5 U.S. fl oz. for American tastes, I would suggest you invite a friend, make "two cup" of expresso (5 oz of water), add the equal amounts of foam and milk, and then split it. You then each get a full measuring cup (actually about 7.5 oz) of cappucino each. Don C Sanyo Coffee Makers
