Coffee grounds (15-20 portions)
Using my 4-language instruction manual for my Jura (Swiss) coffee machine as a guide, they use "coffee grounds" in English and "Kaffeesatz" in German (marc in French, by the way). Tresterbehälter is the German for "grounds container" (also used by Jura)so I am reasonably convinced that Kaffeekuchen isn't in this text a nice piece of cake.

: I think the point is the number of portions that the container can hold between cleanings; the shape is irrelevant
