Wake up and smell the coffee!

by mommy2jesse , Jan 13 '04
Pros: Timed brewing; grind selection; stylish; convenient
Cons: Water spilling from reservoir; grind in coffee pot; auto shut off too early
Simply stated, I am a Java Junkie. I've admitted it, and I have no intention of curing it. That being said, I am obsessive about the quality of the coffee bean, grinder, maker and water I use in which to brew my coffee. I use fresh spring water for ...

Feeding my addiction - Melitta Mill & Brew

by pilotpat Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 04 '03
Pros: The smell of fresh ground/brewed coffee in the morning. Adjustable grind settings.
Cons: Filter housing difficult to clean. Sometimes the grinder, not the aroma, wakes you up!
I admit it... I have a problem. I'm addicted to coffee. It's genetic. Growing up, we would often fill a thermos to have with us on a short trip to the grocery store. Alaska was awesome - if the line to the Sleepy Dog coffee shop was too long, there...

I came back to Melitta!

by jtjackson , Mar 04 '06
Pros: Good coffee. No mess on counters, or on hot plate.
Cons: Auto-shutoff too quick. Potential for milling unit mess.
I've had some coffee maker problems, lately. First, about 6 months ago, my Melitta Fast Brew died. In my rush to replace it, since I really need coffee in the morning, I was stuck with a limited selection, and bought a Mr. Coffee. See my review ...

Freshly Ground Coffee without Getting Up Early!-Only a Part Broke after 3 Months!

by smjackson , Jan 02 '04
Pros: Great cup of coffee with minimal work!
Cons: Auto shut off is annoying! Broken part within 3 1/2 months!
My father and mother had bought one of these coffee makers in the fall. After listening to my husband rant and rave about their great coffee, I decided to get him one! I must admit, I feared how much this was going to cost me, but I was pleasantly ...

Quirky, but makes great coffee!

by barbsjemms , Jul 26 '04
Pros: Cheaper option to the Cuisenart grind/brew machine.
Cons: Brewing temp too cool, flimsy and no replacement grinder lid.
We drink a lot of coffee in this house--me, my husband, and even my five kids love their coffee-milk in the morning. Needless to say we go through a coffee machine once every 2 years or so. My Delonghi was much loved until it expired on its 2-year ...

Good design, poor execution

by pov-inc , Oct 25 '03
Pros: Makes yummy coffee Scheduled brewing a nice feature One hour auto-off good for the forgetful
Cons: Lid latch breaks easily, not self-repairable or replaceable Some operations counter-intuitive
I have to agree with maltipoo -- while I love this coffee maker in general I too have had problems with the lid latch breaking off. I chose this brand/model originally because I was limited in counter to cabinet space to 14 1/2 inches -- the Krups and Cu ...

Does it get any better than this!

by dtuleya , May 18 '03
Pros: Grinder/Coffee Maker in One!
Cons: Loud grinder!
My mom bought me this coffee maker for Christmas. I love it! An inexpensive model that not only makes your coffee, but grinds the beans before brewing!

The only cons about this appliance are the loud grinding sound and the open bottomed...

Addicted to this coffee maker

by BourbonBob , Dec 30 '07
Pros: Wake up to the grinder sounds and the smell of fresh ground coffee.
Cons: After years of researching; not a thing.
I've had this Mill & Brew since about 2003 and it has been great. So much so, we've thought other coffee makers might be as good or better. Wrong! I appeased my wife with replacements (she initially preferred something in white to match some other ...

Loved it until I tried the Cuisinart!

by lvelez250 , Jun 30 '09
Pros: Small compact design
Easy to operate
Cons: Lid breaking is common problem
Hard to find replacement parts
Coffee not very hot
My husband and I received this as a wedding gift in 2002 and were in love with it.  We have replaced the filter twice, the carafe once (which we had to purchase a white one and swap the handle because they no longer had black carafes) and the lid ...

Pros: Grinds and brews at the same time. Can be set on a timer.
Cons: Not good for making small pots of coffee, grounds seep through into pot.
The coffee is great, especially when it prepares itself! However, it works best when making more tha ...

Crunchy coffee!

by df2002 , Sep 20 '02
Pros: Compact, easy to clean. Good pour.
Cons: Coffee grinds in coffee. Not very hot. No battery backup for clock.
Melitta MEMB1B Mill & Brew 10-CupCoffee Maker works well and is easy to clean but it does have some problems. You will typically use more coffee than you'd think to get a good cup. If you lose power for an instant, you have to reset the clock. The...
