The Hamilton Beach coffee maker - no glass cofffee pot

The Hamilton Beach coffee maker comes in several different models. The favorite model is the 12-cup coffee maker without a glass coffee pot, so that you won't have to buy any replacement carafes. It has a aone hand operation and is easy to set up and use. In addition, the Hamilton Beach looks great on any counter top. In spite of its unique design, it operates the same as any drip cup coffee percolator. Although the spout looks like it will leak when you pour our a cuppa, it doesn't leak at all. When you clean the coffee pot, you can clean the spout by opening the valves and letting some clean water wash away any coffee grinds that might remain.

When the coffee pot is empty, you just lay it on the flat bottom base. Since there is only one way to put it in, there is no danger that the carafe will tip over, even though it looks like it might. Measure out the amount of coffee grinds that you want to put in the filter basket and put the filter in place on the top of the coffee pot. Close the filter basket and turn on the machine. There is a timer on this so that if you wish to set it to start brewing coffee later, then you can program the time.

In no time at all, there will be a fresh pot of coffee waiting for you. You do have to wait for the coffee to drip through on some models if you don't want to have a mess to clean up. However, most of the Hamilton Beach models have a pause feature so that you can have a cup of java while you are waiting for the rest to drip through.

With the Hamilton Beach Brew Station, the coffee brews in a thermal healted self-contained tank. With the double warmers, the coffee will stay warm for several hours so that you can enjoy a cup of coffee at any time during the morning. You don't have a carafe with this model. you simply put your cup under the spout and fill it with the coffee. The plastic filter fits right in place in the filter holder and this eliminates the need to use a paper filter, Once you buy one of these Hamilton Beach models, the only expense you will have is the coffee grinds.

If you like to grind the coffee beans yourself, Hamilton Beach also has grinders that wil give you just the right blend for whatever type of percolator that you have. For regular coffee, you will need coarse grinds, bur for espresso, you will need to have rather fine grinds.
