Cuisinart 14-Cup Coffee Maker, Programmable PerfecTemp Glass Carafe Coffee Machine with 1-4 Cup Setting, Brew Strength Control and Pause, Stainless Steel, DCC-3200NAS

Love this machine. Makes a very fine cup of coffee ... It's a slower brew time than most but that's also why the coffee tastes so good. The different temp selections on the carafe plate warmer are really nice ... ...I've yet to taste a burnt cup. It's makes a LOT of coffee and the smaller brew options works great as well. You need to put in the amount of water for the size pot you're brewing ... The one to four cup button doesn't control the amount of water that gets brewed... It's not like some makers on the market where you can fill the reservoir and it'll stop itself at two cups. If you overfill it, there will be a waterfall out the back top ... Learned right away to check the reservoir before filling. Operator error I got the white one and the ease of cleaning this unit is great. You can fit your hand inside the carafe to clean it unlike taller thinner carafes I've had. It's a simple body so clean up is a breeze. Really glad I went with the Cuisinart. I've always used the bold/rich settings on other machines but this one is as good as those on the regular setting... Rich is the default here, depending on your beans. The bold setting is great for afternoon sweet coffee with creamer when you still want rich coffee flavor. There's a mesh filter or you can use a paper filter. The tiny looking scoop IS a TABLESPOON although it doesn't look like it is at all.

Making a good cup of Coffee for me as it is for many, a very serious morning event. I do not take it lightly. So as you can see from my short video, I am not afraid to invest in the process. But I’d like to think there are points of diminishing returns and that’s how I approached this purchase. You can spend mega bucks on a coffee brewer, but does that insure the best experience, the best end result. So I wanted an attractive, easy to use brewer that would not take up more counter space than necessary, and not break the bank. Enter the Cuisinart brewer. It is not the cheapest but it is far from the most expensive. I buy my coffee beans from a local roaster, grind my own coffee, and primarily drink light to medium roasted coffees. The Cuisinart once ordered was delivered within a couple days. Package was undamaged, it was double boxed. The brewer was easy to unpack and setup. I ran a pot of water through the brewer just to flush things out. Then brewed up a 8 cup pot. 8 cups really means about 4 decent sized coffee mugs of coffee. I used a tbs of coffee per cup for the brewing process. Using the Cuisinart was fairly straight forward. A series of buttons across the front panel gives you your brewing options and the tiny clock is surrounded by another series of buttons to set time, adjust the tone, and adjust the temp of the hot plate (low, medium, high). Inside the brewer once you lift the top lid, is a basket holding a reusable metal mesh filter. Be aware that the basket is all plastic and after you lift it out, must be set back into its proper position. You cannot just drop it in place. There is an ample opening to add your water. You must exercise some care in filling the coffee maker. The side of the coffee maker has a volume capacity indicator. The glass pot is nicely designed but careful as the glass may not be the most resistant to breaking, it is on the thin side. I’ve been using #4 paper filters for my brewing. Seems to work just fine. Now as for the brewing process, you can set a timer for automatic start or use the center button to initiate a start. I’ve done both, works well. As for the end product…..the brewed coffee is very good. Much will depend on what coffee you actually use and the quality of your water. Oh, and there is a charcoal filter for water filtration. It is found on the left interior side on the end of extended plastic piece. Not sure what else I can add here only to say that the machine does its job and the end result is good. For less than $100, money well spent.

One of the best and cheapest, good looking coffee makers out there. I have one at home and one at the office for years and it works everyday. The coffee is hot, it keeps it fairly hot not burned, easy to fill, easy to add coffee. I have bought many coffee makers and some are much much more expensive. But just for a good consistent pot of coffee once you get the correct measurements of coffee and water I think there is none better. It came with the gold filter which is good since I never use paper, it has a few brew temp and carafe temps and you can set the timer to brew automatically. It does not take up much space is fairly easy to keep clean. The water tank though does take a bit of work to get clean and keep clean though. Over time it gets pretty rank and I cleaned mine by spraying soap and Clorox in it and using a dishrag to clean it out. I then rinsed it out in the sink all the time being upside down so as this would not enter the brew track. Once cleaned and rinsed then filled with water and ran a couple of pots of water through it and its as good as new. Now unless your a professional, I don't recommend doing this LOL but it never stopped working and never stopped brewing a good cup of coffee. Looks and works as good as the day it was purchased. I did buy another one and had a funeral for the old one after many years. It still worked, so it was hard to part with but the wife said we had to get a new one. Sheesh, Why? O well you know how that goes.

Muy bonito diseño y muy funcional, ideal para la casa

Est oxidada por la parte de abajo

Esta cafetera tiene muchos beneficios, su gran capacidad de 14 tazas es uno de ellos, su facilidad de uso, es programable, la temperatura se puede graduar desde baja, mediana y alta, el café se hace bastante rápido y cuenta con otras funciones como BOLD o REGULAR para que tu café salga más suave o fuerte y tiene otra opción de 1-4 cups que te realza el sabor en el caso que prepares hasta 4 tazas de café. La cafetera tiene buen diseño y se ve muy bien. Lo malo es el depósito de agua, que es algo pequeña la abertura para colocar el agua, se hace algo incómodo a la hora de vaciar el líquido vital. Otra cosa que no me gusto fue que, a pesar que la medida con la que viene la cafetera, que es una pequeña cuchara de plástico no es correcta para lo que es una taza de café, al hacer la primera prueba de colocar 4 tazas de agua y 4 tazas de café con la medida proporcionada, el café salió demasiado fuerte, después de eso, o le pongo más agua o debo colocar medidas más pequeñas de café y eso termina siendo una pérdida de tiempo, al final cuando preparo 4 tazas de café, pongo agua para 6 tazas y el café ya se puede tomar sin problemas.

Esta cafetera sobre pasó mis expectativas, es la mejor cafetera que he tenido, está muy bonita, muchas funciones, de muy buena calidad y lo mejor es que mantiene el café súper caliente. La verdad estoy encantada.

This is a US coffee maker, fitted with a US electrical outlet plug. Unfortunately this makes it fairly useless to a UK customer like me. Even after securing a step-down converter it won't start brewing. Nothing in the original ad, including the small print and technical details, suggests this is not a UK coffee maker. Basically all told £150 wasted due to the seller and Amazon being clueless about where they are selling electrical items.
