Is this not the coolest looking coffee maker you have ever seen?

I am still using the coffee maker my Grandmother got from walgreens for $8.00.

I have a very cheap and awful looking Mr.Coffee drip machine I got from Target for 15 bucks.

:hide:

go back to bed!

:P

x(

stoopid work...

I bet if something like that dispensed Diet Pepsi you'd be all over it..:hide:

:hi:

BTW ..congats on passing 2,000 posts my friend..:hi:

I will be making a stink about it pretty soon now....

:P

Start thinking about ideas for where we should go I when I come up soon. Looking forward to the visit!

Does it brew a decent cup of coffee? :P

The reviews I read said it does.

My coffee maker makes lukewarm coffee. Bleh.

until I saw That One :o

that one, however nice, is not as cool looking as the one I linked...

:P

Note to self: do NOT show this to the coffee-inhaling spouse. :P

depends on how much money you can spare right now I guess...

:rofl:

:rofl: I spent 14 bucks yesterday on Nespresso caps for the coffee machine we *do* have. That should keep S.O. for a couple of days while my tax refund is wending its way through the mail...

I have one like this, but with a thermal carafe instead of the glass one. http://www.foodnetworkstore.com/ProductDetail.aspx?R=534697&ccaid=FNFROOG534697 It matches the rest of my kitchen gear.

the reviews online say it does, whatever thats worth.

that's one of MY cups.

And it doesn't seem to be available in the US anyway.

Treasonous the Caffeinated

;)

:P

;)

Almost. :)

but it'd look great next to my Macbook Pro... :evilgrin:

Otherwise its a pretty cool machine.

I wish I could get one and find out.

1) Does it do windows?

2) Does it work as a bong?

3) Is it self cleaning, including the filter?

4) How many WATTS of pure thundering bass can it produce?

5) Will having one in your kitchen get you laid?

6) Does it talk? If so, forget it - that's the LAST thing you want.

7) How much wood would it chuck if it could chuck wood?

You have to ask a LOT of questions before purchasing something that looks that expensive!

:rofl:

I put that one in just for you.

:evilgrin:

:rofl:

I'll stick with my Technivorm Moccamaster CDK10. Sexy professional equipment.



edit: I had to smuggle it in from the Netherlands and it cost me $300. It's the best coffeemaker in the world.

I am thinking of buying a new coffeemaker. Are there any in, say, all stainless steel? (I ask since you seem to be the coffee and tea-making guru in there parts.) This may sound dumb but I always wonder about the piping hot water repeatedly in contact with god-knows-what kind of plastic in those things, and then into my cup; Call me paranoid but I worry about scary chemicals leaching into my joe.

Thanks!

:hi:

It's the best because it works based on pressure (driven by a vacuum pump) combined with a higher quality temperature control than in most brewers. These two factors combine to produce a consistent brewing environment that more completely brews the grounds in less time. Not only is the coffee better, it's more consistent. It features a 9-hole spray-head insuring that the grounds are soaked evenly. These machines are made only from the best available fully-biodegradable and recyclable non-leeching plastics. Some older models are made of glass. There are also stainless steel models, although for weight and environmental reasons the metal of choice on non-food surfaces is brushed aluminum made from recycled cans in a variety of colors. All technivorm machines are hand-made and infinitely customizable.

Admittedly, it's not the machine for everybody. I probably brew 2 gallons of coffee a day. If you're looking for reviews of brewers by people who know a lot more than I and have no agenda, check out coffeegeek.com. It's a messageboard for coffee professionals.
