This automatic grind and brew coffee maker is awesome! It has a blade grinder that will automatically grind whole beans before brewing your coffee so you will get fresh ground coffee each time! That is my favorite part about this. You also can set it for a 24 hour programmability, and also has a auto shut off. It self cleans itself so you do not have to clean it each day. If you have no purchased one of these automatic coffee makers yet make sure you do cause if not you are missing out! I would highly recommend this coffee maker!
