I've been using this for a few months and it brews great coffee. For optimum extraction from the beans the water needs to be between 195 and 205 degrees. My machine starts around 192 and ends up around 208. I use the gold tone filter. Some people have had the paper filter restrict the flow of water resulting in overflow. It's a 12-cup unit, but I can't get more than 20 or 22 tablespoons of grounds in it so usually just go with 10 cups. Screwing on the lid is very critical. I start with "Close" over the pour spout and then screw it on until "Pour" is directly over the pour spout. I can brew a pot at night and when I wake up the coffee is still fairly hot. Cuisinart recommends a medium-fine grind. If you grind finer you might find it overflows since the water can't flow through quickly enough. You also need to run vinegar or a cleaning product through this on a regular basis."..."Read more
My new pot does not drip. Makes enough espresso for three to four large mugs of cappuccino which I use during the day. It stays fresh till its heated with the milk for the next cup.
It makes far superior coffee to the purchased brews from coffee shops and at a much better price. The taste is smooth and not bitter.
I even like the metal handle which has not melted or got loose because the flame was too high.
This pot is PERFECT! WAY TO GO ALDO! Your my man."..."Read more
Lovely, well made, works perfectly. With two spoonfuls of grounds, makes two large cups of perfectly brewed coffee. Brews very fast on the induction stovetop."
