Coffee Maker Buying Tips

If you are looking to replace your aging coffee maker or giving one as a gift, here are a few tips for you to consider before you make your buying decision.

The glass carafe is by far the most popular and is very easy to clean.

A thermal carafe has the advantage of keeping your coffee or tea hot for about an hour without having to keep the coffee on a hot burner and slowly degrading the flavor.

If you or your gift recipient are dealing with limited counter space, you might want to consider a coffee maker that includes a grinder.

If you frequently entertain consider a coffee maker that features dual brewers for brewing two pots of coffee simultaneously.

You can brew a lot of coffee at once or make one pot of caffeinated and one pot of decaf all at the same time.

The new pod brewers are another consideration over a standard coffee maker. They are quick and convenient, provide variety, and require very little cleanup.

Pod brewers use individually packaged pods of ground coffee, the pod machine quickly brews one cup of coffee directly into the cup or travel mug. The individual pods provide users with the ability to brew a different coffee according to tastes.

Additionally, pod brewers are also able to brew tea using preportioned tea pods.
