I have my programmable grind and brew coffee maker back in action. There's nothing quite like waking up because I hear the baby on the monitor and smelling the aroma of fresh coffee that has filled the house. I imagine the dogs are less thrilled when the grinder kicks on in the morning. I use a Bunn. That is how easy coffee making has to be for me first thing in the morning. Lift lid, poor in water, fill coffee basket with filter, fill filter with coffee. Slide coffee basket in place, put coffee pot under basket, drop lid. Brews instantly. Good enough for me because I just need to wake up. I'm not one to drink coffee throughout the day. I just need it in the morning to wake up before my entire household decides they need to communicate with me all at once. Ah, but the beauty of the grind and brew is you set it the night before and tell it to be ready at, say, 7:30, and the coffee just makes itself. Quite handy.

But, I am afraid that I'd forget to set it up the night before. I can barely remember to pull my dogs' food out of the freezer when I need to. But I am considering something different. I know my Bunn is going to go out on me soon. I don't always buy beans. I was gifted some by a customer/friend for Christmas, but I didn't have a grinder to grind the beans. I had to use my in-laws' grinder. I'm assuming this maker you have can be used even without use of the grinder feature?

Ah, sorry. I did not intend to imply that you didn't understand what I was saying, so sorry if it came off that way!
Yes, you can turn off the grind feature and use ground coffee. And I understand about not always setting the night before. Sometimes after a long day of work, dogs, and baby, by the time I've eaten it's all i can do to climb up the stairs and crawl into the bed.

I had coffee exactly twice in my life, and both times it was a strategic move.

No, it's fine. Do you have a link to the one you have, if you don't mind sharing? I was going to read reviews, and product details, before deciding on which to purchase.

Thank you!!! And you have had no problems with it? Because that costs about HALF what a new Bunn machine costs. So, I was expecting it to be way more expensive.

55 degrees in NYC today. The 28" of snow is considerably smaller because of a sunny plus 40 degrees past week. I'm loving global warming.

My dream home is for sale, and at a price so low I could cry. But it is in the historic district of my city, and that means lots of rules. And it would mean moving into a community of people soooo not like us.
But it is sooo beautiful.
