My wife tells me I’m a coffee snob and she’s right. I’ve been using a French press for years and love the taste vs a drip coffee maker. This auto brew maker has changed my mind though! Easy to setup, set a time to brew and I have a great cup of coffee waiting for me in the morning! The iced coffee is phenomenal out if this machine too! Easy to clean, no more messy wet grounds to pour out. My only caveat is I wish you could adjust the amount of coffee grounds it uses for each cup. I like my coffee super strong, and I wish I could adjust a setting to add more grounds to each cup.
