Love that this coffeemaker can be used to make hot, iced or espresso coffee. I enjoy making coffee at home and I enjoy switching it up between hot and iced coffee. Both varieties turned out perfect & the directions included were easy to follow. When having hot coffee, there is a setting that keeps the coffee hot as well. The coffeemaker also comes with a scooping spoon with directions on how many scoops =how much coffee, which I find helpful, since sometimes I'm making coffee just for me and sometimes I have guests. It even comes with a frother if you decide you want to make a latte or flat white! I highly recommend this coffee maker if you're like me and want to try out all kinds of different coffee beverages at home.
