We just love this Braun PureFlavor coffee maker.   It has a 1200 watt heating element, and a charcoal water filter and holder.  It’s easy to program with its premium touch display and has a 14 cup carafe which is dishwasher safe.  It Is fairly compact and fits very nicely on my kitchen counter.  The coffee we have brewed so far tastes absolutely great.  And I love the fact we can even brew coffee over ice and the flavor doesn’t get watered down.  This is a great machine
