This is a budget friendly coffee maker that requires filters. It is simple but it has a great drip system & it probably will outlast any $200+ coffee maker. It makes 12 cups & all you have to is add spring water, filter & preferred coffee & flip the red on button & it will brew 12 cups with in 10 or so minutes. It is a strongly made pot & maker & performs well. It is small enough it fits in my space but big enough for 12 cups.
My mother wanted a new coffee maker, so after looking at reviews, designs, and different capabilities of dozens of machines on the marker, I determined that this device would be in her best interest and taste. It does everything listed above, plus it makes Iced Coffee*** which she thoroughly enjoys. The blue LED is very bright, I do not mind, neither does she, it is fine. Other Cons, The reservoir does not contain a water filter like her previous coffee maker, but that does not really matter. The "chord storage" in the back does not seem to work and the chord is only about 24'' inches long. Other than that, it works more than fine. I will post pictures , perhaps they may be helpful to other perspective buyers of this device.
I was so excited to get this. I love cold brew. Unfortunately it is leaking all over my fridge from the bottom of the device. What a waste of the coffee I bought. I even threw away the packaging it came in. I am waiting a response from coffeemakers.us.com.
Perfect size for 3 standard coffee mugs (with milk)!
This little unit is just as gorgeous in person as in the ads, and I am loving the colors and unique design. It is super lightweight and small, and makes an amazing cup of coffee at that! I was initially reluctant since I’m not at all familiar with the brand; if your concern is the same as was mine, then I urge you to go ahead and order with confidence! Great machine and great value.
Well it arrived today. This unit is replacing a Keurig K-Cup machine we have had for many years. It was packaged well by coffeemakers.us.com. It was double boxed by Cuisinart (Colorful retail box inside of a brown storage box). Needless to say it arrived without damage. Make sure you follow the "Before Brewing Your First Pot of Coffee" instructions which basically tell you to pre-soak the included water filter for 15 min in cold water then insert and run one pot of water through the entire machine to remove any factory dust from the manufacturing process. The water came out at 171 degrees (see photo) which is pretty hot and the "rain showerhead" type water dispenser spout thoroughly soaked our freshly ground coffee in the #4 cone shaped paper filter even though it comes with a gold cone shaped metal filter. Measurements: The machine shows 12 cups Max. on the water level indicator window. I put exactly 12 cups of water and measured the water in the pot which was exactly 8 cups using a measuring cup. Measurements: The "1-4 Cup Button". Do not think that if you fill the reservoir with 12 cups of water and you hit the "1-4 Cup Button" that it will only make 4 cups of coffee leaving you a balance of water in the reservoir, it does not. While the manual does not fully explains this feature, I can only imagine that it somehow controls the application of the water to the coffee grounds. Measurements: You need to figure out how much water to add based on how many cups you will need based on the size coffee mugs you use. My wife and I use our favorite cups which are different sizes so I had to figure out how much water to use for her 3 "fills" of coffee and my 1 fill. Not hard, just took some time and now we know exactly the amount of water to show on the level indicator before we brew. Last point: While researching which replacement coffee maker to get, I read about the complaints by some about the residual amount of liquid left in the carafe after practically turning it upside down (see photo), about a quarter cup. A couple of shakes (with the lid secured) and it all comes out. Some possible room for carafe design improvements here. All-in-all it makes a great hot cup of coffee.
This is an amazing coffee maker that has elevated my home brewing experience beyond expectations. So I love coffee as does my husband but he likes plain Jane nothing fancy just plain old coffee (drip at home, gas station, airplanes, diners, etc). Now, enter the Braun Multiserve coffee machine and this elevates both of our coffee drinking to a new level. It is so high end! It is quick and intuitive to setup straight out of the box. The feature I like the most is the flexible brewing size options which are great for when you just want a cup or travel mug sized serving and not an entire pot. Also my husband and I both agree that the Golden Cup technology (a certification that makes sure it brews at the optimal brewing temperature) truly brews a better cup of coffee. My only complaint is similar to what others have said in that the pot is difficult to clean unless you have tiny child-like hands which I do haha but I prefer to make my husband clean it and he tells me I should since my hands are smaller. Overall, I would highly recommend this coffee machine to anyone looking to upgrade their home brewing experience!
Pouring coffee can be a mess as the hot liquid fans out along the round rim that doesn't have a pourspout. Really?!
Pros: • Portable fresh coffee without having to lug around a camping stove this is a good choice Cons: • Paint immediately began melting off on its very first brew. There is an odor of paint fumes while brewing. Hopefully this will subside but now doesn’t look so nice and will be prone to rust. • Carafe is glass (as pictured from the seller). It seems counter intuitive to have glass on a portable machine. • Carrying case is not included as pictured from the seller. They should remove that photo. I knew this before purchasing but it would be nice to include this since this machine was about $85 a few years ago. Conclusion: Despite some complaints I am happy with the purchase for it's convenience. Now I can brew coffee at our early morning sporting events without having to find a coffee shop, especially when traveling to an unfamiliar field or town. It would have been nice to include a carrying case and stainless carafe. I wish it was made in the USA and quality was better. Other reviews have mentioned an issue with finding coffee filters. I just purchased the Bunn coffee filters (8-12 cup size) and it seems to fit ok. They do not go up to the top of the grind bin but the diameter works.
I love that you can adjust the brew strength! I love the color options! Takes only 10 minutes for me to make sweet tea. Very convenient! Love this product got one for me and then had to go back and get one for my mom. We love it!
Very easy to use. Has stood up very well. The frother works well too. Like that you can choose how much coffee to make, and holds xtra water for more than 1 serving. All around good machine!
I don't like this machine.. I received it may 6th of this year and I already have problems with it.. I fill it with water like I'm supposed to and it literally brews a mouthful of coffee. It's happened more than once so I would like to get my money back or have a new one sent to me. I will gladly send this one back. I had to press brew 3 times to get this amount that I have now.. not even a mouthful..please refund me or replace this machine.
Although I only tried using it once, I like it a lot. My only concern/issue is, why is the lid white instead of the transparent black I see in the product description??? Hopefully, it's not something like a fake one that will malfunction soon...? I see that they have a different model with a white cap, but that one has a shorter white cap. I'm going to contact the seller about this...
This is an updated version of the original rapid cold brew maker. It went from horizontal to vertical. It’s just as loud when it runs. It’s a vacuum pull of water, pressure forced thru the grounds over and over. The settings are timed longer than the original. The old were 5,10, and 15 mins whereas the new 8.2, 12, and 17 mins. The main improvement is the grounds sit atop of the machine instead of the side. The ports, after cleaning, face downwards to drip dry. The old constantly had water remaining in the tubes as you can see the underside photo. The cold brew is still amazing. I like this style of cold brew machine much more than those that spin a vortex as those are water flavored coffee. This really is cold brew from a store. The machine is quite a bit more money than it should cost IMHO. However, I don’t like waiting 24-48 hrs. If your cold brew costs $5 each time, 30 trips saved will break even.
This coffee maker is sleek and stylish and even has the option of placing the water reservoir to the back or to the side - extremely useful if you're limited on space. The most astonishing, yet simple idea is to make a drip coffee maker like a Keurig where the water reservoir is always available and you don't have to try to pour a carafe of water to a certain cup level each time you want to make coffee. This simplistic idea makes this an absolute must purchase. I've never been a fan of Keurig coffee, it's just my personal thing. I do own a Nespresso so it's not the pod thing, perhaps just the beginning machines and the thin coffee that I didn't like. The Keurig/pod attachment is a great bonus for those people who do take one cup of coffee with them in the morning. The hot water option is nice for a quick cup of tea if you're not brewing a pot, although you could brew a steeping pot full. You have the option of making the water temperature boiling hot. My daughter likes to use this to make a quick cup of cocoa, quicker and easier than the microwave. I haven't yet done an iced beverage, but look forward to this. The milk frother works nicely, but you do have to warm your milk beforehand. It's not a milk steamer. For that, I guess you have to buy a Breville. If you're a budding barista and you like espresso drinks, the time and energy expended using a Breville will fill that need. This coffee pot makes a great pot of coffee. Ninja is the name brand in our kitchen from our smoothies to our flip toaster oven, air fryer/grill, mixer/food processor, now coffee maker. I think this is an amazingly innovative company and the quality is amazing in each product. I think I want to work there! If they come out with a washer and dryer, I'm going to be the first one in line 😊
