Cuisinart Perfec Temp 14 Cup Coffee Maker

    Close to Perfect - First, I like hot coffee not the tepid brew that comes out of most coffee makers nowadays. This coffee machine brews coffee at the correct temp , especially if you add milk or creamer to your coffee. The large 14 cup capacity is perfect for my wife and I in the mornings when we both want a large mug of "starter" coffee and then have plenty left to carry to work. Before we always had to make two pots. It is easy to operate and very easy to see the nicely lit display. If you want to make less than a full pot it has settings for that and more. It is slower to brew than our old coffee maker, but worth the little extra for the correct temp. The only other nitpick is I wish it had a removable water reservoir to carry directly to the sink. Our old coffee maker had that feature and we really liked it. But here's the thing- this thing makes great coffee. If you go to the expense of buying good beans (or even if you don't) you want the best cup to live up to your kona or celebes or whatever you prefer. This coffee machine delivers where it counts, finally. There are a lot of expensive (and cheap) coffee makers that aren't worth a darn-this one is!!!
