The new Capresso Coffee Team S replaces the popular Coffee Team Luxe with some cosmetic upgrades and the same great operation that made these coffee makers instant classics. The Coffee TEAM is the only combination machine with a CONICAL BURR GRINDER! Just pour in the beans, program the time AND the amount of coffee to be ground , Other grind and brew coffee makers on the market use an inferior blade grinder. The conical burr grinder used in the Coffee TEAM S gives a more even grind, less mess and the bean hopper can be filled and the coffee maker programmed to grind and brew just the right amount of coffee. Electronic Charcoal Filter Indicator An internal counter registers how often you turn the coffee maker on. It assumes that it makes a pot of coffee each time the machine is turned on. After 60 pots of coffee the green indicator light starts blinking. Replace the charcoal filter and push and hold the filter button until the green light stops blinking and stays illuminated. TIP: Once the charcoal filter is wet, certain cleaning agents will diminish over time. Replace the charcoal filter at least every six weeks or when the indicator light blinks, whichever comes first. If you dont use the charcoal system, push the filter button and the green light will turn off. Programming the Right Amount of Coffee You can get almost any strength of coffee from your CoffeeTEAM grind and brew coffee maker. Maximum coffee will be ground in choosing "10" and the "dark" cup and setting the fineness to the large dot. When filling the water container with 50 oz. (10 cups) of coffee it will give you a strong coffee. If you prefer an even stronger coffee, fill only 7 or 8 cups of water (35 to 40 oz.) into the water tank. If you prefer a very mild coffee set the grinder one or two levels below the amount of coffee you want to brew, e.g. set the grinder to "6" and fill the water tank with 8 or 10 cups (40 to 50 oz.). + Bean Vac Coffee Canister

Kalorik PC-20595 600-Watt 4-Cup Cordless Tea Maker with Tea/Coffee Filters
Kalorik PC-20595 600-Watt 4-Cup Cordless Tea Maker with Tea/Coffee Filters
This unique Tea and Coffee maker is another Kalorik signature piece by the famous European designer Neil Currie. Born in England Mr. Currie has a rooted appreciation for drinking tea, he has developed this distinct tea maker to give the user total control over brewing, as each drinker has a favorite level/shade of brewing tea, the unit offers a patented brewing selector switch where you could stop the tea from brewing while still keeping warm. Features: Cordless jar * Total control provided by the patented brewing selector switch * Easy to fill and to clean * Cleaning brush included * Cordless base * Auto-stop brewing system * Non-slip feet * 1 quart (4 cups) capacity
Customer Review: It makes and keeps the tea HOT/BUT I had some troubles. Give it 3 stars instead.
Addendum to 5 star review:
I bought it in July and by August the coating was peeling from the bottom of the kettle. I contacted customer service via the email through their website. Customer service was excellent and I received a replacement quickly.
Apparently, this is the first they've heard of such a problem.
If there is a defect, be prepared to pay for shipping and handling for returns. It adds eleven or more dollars to the price. I don't feel the customer should pay anything additional for a manufacture defect.
I hope my new kettle has no problems.
Earlier review:
Tea strength is adjusted by how much tea is used. It percolates (boiling temperature) water through the filter tray (two different mesh baskets included-one is a finer mesh). The temperature of the water makes a big difference in taste. It does a good job with both bagged and loose teas as well as herbals. I used some of my higher quality (i.e. more expensive teas) and the results were good. Just know your tea and how much to put in. Remember to put it on "warm" mode once it's made the tea. It does a thirty second reheat without steeping the tea again. I wouldn't let tea sit for more than an hour or more. I did it and the tea was a bit stronger. Just like coffee sitting in a pot too long, tea is best when fresh.
Safety wise, it's a winner for me. I have kids, so no boiling kettle to worry about. If you don't have kids, no worry about a kettle boiling dry. This tea maker has a safety shut off.
I LOVE that it is cordless.
Getting the basket into the carafe can be tricky at first, but I've gotten the hang of it. You have to line up the baskets with the carafe near the handle and then the stem connects to the bottom.
Customer Review: works good
I was not sure when I started using it if that it was working well, but it was a matter of time, waiting for the water to go through the top takes a while (3 minutes...?)
Other than that, it works great as it supposes to do.
And price is reasonable.

Perfect Pod Holster Use Any Pod in Your Keurig Coffee Maker - Over 10,000 Sold
Perfect Pod Holster Use Any Pod in Your Keurig Coffee Maker - Over 10,000 Sold
The Perfect Pod Holster allows you to use virtually any pod 55mm and greater in your Keurig coffee Machine. It features a self tamping spring which extracts a beter cup of coffee or tea. Now you can buy less expensive pods and use them in your Keurig machine. You can also make your own custom coffee pods using the Perfect Pod Maker (sold seperately) for the perfect cup of coffee you have been looking for.
Customer Review: Does not work well with a Keurig B40 !
I own a Keurig B40. When I read the great reviews, I thought it would be the perfect replacement for Keurig My K-Cup. Unfortunately due to the wide opening on the bottom of the holster and the wider spout on Keurig B40, coffee squirts all over the counter while it's brewing. If you own a coffee maker with a narrow spout, this may not be an issue for you.
To prevent the coffee from squirting all over the counter, I have to hold my cup right underneath the spout. Needless to say, I'll be returning the holster.
I found that the better solution is to use my Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Coffee Filter with the coffee filter and a pod. My K-cup has a narrow spout which contains the coffee to one stream and clean up is so much easier with the use of a pod.
Customer Review: I USE THE OTHER ACCESSORY WITH FILTER INSTEAD
I bought this Pod Holster product to switch from K-cups to reduce cost & also to avoid the K-cups due to the K-cup not being recyclable. The Pod Holster works ok, but due to problems with grounds in my cup (YES, I PUSHED THE SPRING IN TIGHTLY!),it really needs a fine mesh screen over the bottom. I decided to use my-already-purchased accessory with which you can put in coffee grounds of your own to make coffe, in place of the K-cups. I just popped in the small fine-mesh filter which came with the accessory called Keurig filter assembly, or just buy the baskets which are spares for the filter assembly, as you don't need to snap out or replace the main bucket in the machine. The pod is squished into this filter just like the holster & avoids coffee grounds & is just as easy to throw away the used pod and rinse the filter, if necessary. If you do not have the other accessory and are considering the holster, I would just buy the accessory.

Customer Review: The best stove top espresso maker yet
This was fantastic. Great quality stainless steel. It produces a smooth cup of espresso. I had the 'ever so popular' hex shape one and hated it. This pours perfectly unlike the other one which spills all over the place. You cannot go wrong with this. Great price, great quality.

Customer Review: I Love You Mr. Coffee
I have a new love in my life. It's "Mr. Coffee NLX5 4- Cup Coffeemaker". When I wake up in the morning,the aroma hits me immediately.He's already there,waiting with 4 cups(actually 2 mugs) of fresh brewed coffee for me. I can program him to any time I want that first pick-me-up, of the morning. And if I happen to wake up a little early and catch Mr. Coffee in the middle of brewing, and I have to have it right away, I am able to pour myself a cup and he'll stop brewing midstream, so none drips onto the warming plate. Ahhhhh! He then returns to the brewing process, so I can have seconds. No waiting!
Mr. Coffee has some other great features that attracted me immediately to him. The filter basket(use basket type for 4-cup) lifts out for neater emptying of used grounds. If I ignore him he'll shut himself off automatically.(it says an hour for auto shut-off here, but my guy goes for 2 hours before turning off). No worry about leaving the coffee to burn away and ruin my decanter.The timer used for presetting my pot of coffee, also makes a nice little kitchen clock. The power cord has a little storage compartment so it stays up and off the counter. I also notice one other nice little feature. If the decanter is not sitting exactly right, the coffee will not drip, again not allowing the warmer plate to get wet or ruined! I also always know whether Mr. Coffee is turned on(or off) as there is an indicator light too.
Mr. Coffee works great every time.My relationship with Mr. Coffee NLX5 has lasted nearly 3 years now. He never complains. He's easy. Easy to use, easy to love and has never let me down. Mr. Coffee is also attractive and comes with a great instruction booklet on the care and feeding. He's juuust right! Perfect for a single!
I love you Mr. Coffee!...Laurie
