[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-06-09 Summary: Excellent Travel Buddy ... This little guy is GREAT. The shape allows it to sit in your cup holder out of the way unlike the bigger odd-shaped ones that fly all over the place while you're driving. This device is perfect for road trips. It handled my laptop and cell phone charger at the same time, and the USB port let me charge my iPod too. The plug fit just fine, and the low-power alarm is quite effective. The only bummer is when you have a real cup of coffee and no where to put it... ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-24 Summary: Cafe Motion for Chai Latte ... I love this item. It is perfect for making a chai latte, which I drink every single day. Be aware. Never submerse the item in water when cleaning it. It will stop working. That's I why I had to buy a new one. The last one I had was great for a whole two years, until my husband decided to be nice and wash it for me, in a sink full of water. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-07-26 Summary: It works ... It works just like promised. Illy recommends this product for their coffee machines, which is why I bought it. It is pretty easy to use. Just follow directions. Note the proportions, though. My coffee maker's water reserve needed only one half of the packet. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-08-14 Summary: Best Coffeemaker Cleaner Ever! ... I got a sample of this product in my new Hamilton Beach Brew Station. The first time I used it, I could not believe how great it is. Things I like: Dissolve in 4 cups of water, pour in coffeemaker. Dissolves easily. Run through the coffeemaker, then wipe and rinse parts. I said "wipe", not "scrub"! First one I ever used that I could do that. I was very impressed. Two subsequent run throughs with clear water. The cleaner is tinted with a blue color, so that you can see if you have got it all rinsed out. Then you are ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-07-01 Summary: Non-gourmet coffee drinker approved! ... For the record, we are not gourmet coffee drinkers. We drink coffee. usually masked in plenty of flavored creamers. But we do use a Cuisanart DCC1200 Brew Central with gold filter and when we do put in a finer coffee for company, it brews a very nice pot. So keeping it clean is still important and this product worked pretty well. Not perfect, and I am not doing it every week as the packaging suggests. However, we do it periodically (probably every month or two), which requires a little more effort than it probably ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-16 Summary: Great help for a beginner ... I have always been curious as to why someone would want to grind coffee beans rather than buy hem ground. A friend brewed me a cup from fesh ground beans and I was hooked but had no idea of how to grind the beans. This grinder was so easy to use, explained all I needed to know and now I am buying gourmet coffee on Amozon. Great value for the cost. ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-09-07 Summary: My Mr Coffee, coffee bean grinder. ... This is the 3rd coffee grinder I have gone through in the past year since I started grinding my own coffee beans. With the first 2 grinders the motors failed, both within a very short period of time. Up to this point My Mr Coffee grinder has worked very well. It is a lot quieter then the other two and it seems I get a better grind. It must be because this grinder offers 3 different settings for grinding. I get a more consistent grind with this grinder especially in the morning when I've forgotten tho grind my coffee ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-01 Summary: Nice grinder for the money. ... It's inexpensive, efficient, and seems to be well made. The "Chamber Maid" system seems to me a bit gimmicky -- it doesn't seem to do anything that could be done with a couple of taps on the side of the bowl. In fact - I usually do that instead. I don't miss the feature, so I don't consider it a bad point that it doesn't really seem to be effective. It grinds quickly and seems to do it pretty evenly, too. It is definitely loud though. Being the first one up in the morning, the coffee making is my job. Since access ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-10-12 Summary: Makes coffee very close to starbucks quality! ... ASIN:B0000X7CMQ Zojirushi EC-BD15 Fresh Brew Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker- AWESOME! This device brews at a very hot temperature insuring full flavor and stays hot very very well in the stainless carafe. Once we actually used the same grounds again just to see what would happen (a scientific experiment:) and it made coffee as good as Carl's jr. (not really bad at all). Recommend that the #4 filter be used and simply fold off 7/8" of the bottom tip of cone. Other devices I have found really don't deliver full flavor and ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-03-29 Summary: Coffee Maker ... Nice product. Easy to use and makes excellent coffee. Timer controls very easy to use although a little small and closely spaced, so the visually challenged will need their bifocals. Unit is tall so low cabinet height makes it difficult to store. Insulated carafe is great and keeps the coffee piping hot for hours without cook down. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Lots of folks dislike the burnt flavor that coffee gets when it sits in a glass pot over a heating element. To avoid this, coffee shops often brew right into large thermal pots to keep the coffee warm without it becoming overcooked. The Zojirushi Fresh Brew does that, too, but in home-sized batches. It looks great, too, with a glossy black body and stainless steel carafe and brew basket. To brew, lift the lid and swing the water outlet spout to one side while the filter is being loaded;...more
