Most coffee these days cames in plastic "cans". Dunno how that would work 
in a crockpot. And the coffee that's not in plastic is in containers made
of foil-lines pasteboard (paper) which will go all soggy and deformed when
subjected to damp heat.

I've got a 7 quart oval slow cooker, a 5 quart round and a "casserole 
Crock Pot" (actually made by Crock Pot inb Jackson, MS) which could be
used to hold my small bundt pan or mu mini-lopaf pans.

      Title: Dirty Dave's Crockpot Chuck Roast Dinner
 Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Potatoes
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
      3 lb Well marbled, trimmed beef
           - chuck or arm roast
      3 lg Idaho potatoes, peeled (2.5
           - to 3 lb)
      1 lg Onion; peeled
     18 oz Bag "baby" carrots
      2 oz Env onion soup mix
           Salt & pepper
           Garlic granules or powder
 
  Assemble the ingredients. Salt and pepper the roast as
  it sits n the countertop. Sprinkle some garlic granules
  over it if you wish.
  
  Peel the potatoes and slice them on your mandoline or
  with a sharp knife into even slices. Line the bottom
  of your Casserole Crockpot with the sliced spuds.
  
  Center the roast on the bed of potatoes and spread the
  "baby" carrots around the perimeter. Open the envelope
  of onion soup mix and sprinkle over the beef.
  
  Set your mandoline to a thin slice setting and slice
  the onion, covering the top of the roast.
  
  Place the lid on the crockpot and set the temperature.
  High if you are making this for Sunday's noon meal or
  low if you are going to work and want supper ready
  when you come home.
  
  UDD NOTES: I have added fresh mushrooms (both sliced
  and whole) to this quite successfully. I have also used
  a medium sized turnip in place of one of the potatoes
  when "catering" for others - after asking if they like
  turnips. Never for home consumption.
