I love this machine for its ability to grind beans right before the brew cycle all in one process however the machine always seems to have issues with water temperature by the 6th month. Purchased in February and already not working correctly in September. The machine gets steamy and it takes 45 minutes to brew, almost like it is overheating the water. Results in long brew and reduced water in the pot (as it all steams out)Which is too bad because I love love this machine for the 6 months it does work.
