This one ...

(New stuff, part 1)

I think I mentioned we ditched our Mr.Coffee coffeemaker a while back in favor of another Braun.  (The previous Braun died after ten years of service, and we decided at the time to try a Mr.Coffee instead.  Never again.)

What I didn't mention was that I discovered that, although it's sold as a 10-cup coffeemaker, if you fill the reservoir just short of the overflow mark, it will actually hold 11 cups.

Yes, that's right ....

"This one ... it goes to eleven."

Yeah, there's a teensy bit of camera shake, even with image stabilization.  Cut me some slack, it was a handheld 1-second exposure.  No, that's not coffee, it's Castleton Estate first-flush Darjeeling tea.

Are you only using it for tea, or do you use it for coffee too? And how does it work as a tea brewer.
I'm allergic to coffee (I know tragedy), but an major lover of Tea (life is good). Usually brew in a small teapot, but if a small coffee maker would work, Hmmmmm.
And if you do use it for coffee, could I have my tea brewed separately? Yeah, the allergy is to something in the oils, so I can't use the coffee pots at hotels, ever.

Tea and coffee, but mostly tea, because if we want coffee we usually use the espresso machine. A decent drip coffeemaker actually works pretty well for brewing loose tea, with no risk of over-brewing it.

We have different cone filters for coffee and tea. Same carafe but we do clean it between brews. I also tend to clean the filter basket holder after coffee.
