Isn't that what you buy a coffee maker for?  The one cup feature is neat but wasn't convinced I wanted to commit to it soley.  Then, I found this one, which offers the best of both worlds!  Still wanted the large pot feature for times I have a house full of guests at the dining table.  Didn't like the idea of keeping some waiting as they took turns getting one cup at a time.  Both sides are programable.  It's easy to fill; maintain.  I''m very happy with it. The price was cheaper than any I'd found. Plus no shipping cost or tax to pay!  So in all, it cost half what a Keurig would have.
