It is understandable how this option can speed up making coffee for more than one person. You could brew an entire pot for the rest of your household while making an ideal cup of coffee for yourself. However, keep in mind that only some dual-purpose coffee makers support activating both sides at the same time. That is why you should carefully check the product description to make sure if it is possible. Although it is convenient, it shouldn’t be a decisive factor in choosing your coffee maker. If the machine delivers amazing coffee, it will be worth spending a bit more time making it.
