Don't spend the money
By Jeff January 21, 2010
I am deploying very soon and wanted a small pod brewer to take in my luggage. The Cuisinart fit the bill. However, when I received the brewer I was less than impressed.
I am a bit of a coffee snob and, being from Vermont, have owned Keurigs since they came out and use nothing but Green Mountain coffee. The smallest Keurig was still too big so I decided to deal with a different type of brewer until mine lands where I am going.
This isn't a coffee brewer!! It is nothing more than a water heater (which it does very well and very fast). It does not, however make coffee. It makes a tinted cup of hot water. Do not buy this unless you plan on heating water for tea, cocoa, or instant coffee. It will not make anything close to a good cup of coffee. I learned my lesson. I should have stuck with what I know and enjoy.
