12-cup Coffee Maker with Flavor Select with Digital Timer Multi-path brewing system Clock and Digital Timer Set your coffee maker’s timer to brew coffee fresh in the morning and gently awaken to its fresh aromaEquipped with a water-dispersal system for fast, uniform saturation of ground coffee, this 12-cup coffeemaker provides a flavor-selection feature for dialing up mild- to robust-tasting coffee. Electronic controls make several programmable choices available. The clock/timer, for example, can be set up to 24 hours in advance to automatically brew “wake-up” coffee. And the warming plate that keeps coffee hot in the glass carafe can be programmed to shut off anytime between 10 minutes and four hours after brewing. Other features include a coffee-flow shutoff if the carafe is removed for a quick pour during the brewing cycle; a space for inserting a water filter (which is not included); a swing-out filter basket that can be removed for cleaning; and a water-level window for precise measurement. This model comes clad in gleaming white and carries a one-year warranty against defects. With the carafe in place, it measures 13-1/2 inches high, 7-1/2 inches wide, and 12 inches deep. –Fred Brack

After years of the same old mediocre coffee, I was expecting houseguests and had an excuse to splurge. I started to go for French press – but would I really go to all of that trouble once my guests left? And I knew I’d need to practice to get it just right. Looked at the wildly techie “Santos,” for an automated way to make French-press-style coffee, but read some disappointing reviews about complexity of brewing, cleaning, and flimsy…
Happy with a Braun Coffeemaker I was looking for a reasonably priced coffee maker. I spent a couple of weeks reading reviews from several sites. We were using a Black and Decker Space Saver and it was impossible to pour from the pot without spilling. So far, we have been very happy with the Braun. Even my husband can pour a cup without spilling coffee all over the counter. The coffee brews quickly and we like the feature that allows you to pour a cup in the middle of the brewing process. The coffee tastes good, although…
