Wow!!! What a great machine, honestly my mind is blown after using the Braun mulitserve coffee maker!!! I feel like I'm my own barista. It's amazing I can make one cup at a time or 10!! Can choose from light, golden, dark or even iced. Can't get that from just any ole regular pot!! As a coffee lover I so wish I'd tried this machine sooner never had coffee this good at home and using my favorite same ole grounds!! It's like the bruan has enhanced the flavor. Absolutely love all the settings and the freshness indicator, I can keep a pot warm all day with the hot plate, or ya know make one cup and out the door!!! Cleaning the Bruan mulitserve coffee pot is such a breeze it washes out easy or can be put in the dishwasher. Not sure if I will ever get tired of showing off it's stylish design either, it's beautiful, and I'm really not a fan of to many things setting on my counter tops, but this guy gets to stay!!!
