Help yourself to caf-quality coffee every morning. Whether you’re brewing coffee for two or making enough coffee for family and friends, the Hamilton Beach 12 Cup Programmable Coffee Maker is the perfect size and offers many features to fit your brewing needs. This full-size coffeemaker looks great on the counter with a stainless steel design that fits right in with any kitchen. Choose your brewing strengthThis coffeemaker offers the choice of regular or bold brewing strengths. If you typically purchase coffee described as, bright, breakfast blend, or mildly flavored, and are not fond of espresso, your taste buds will be more at home with the regular setting. If, on the other hand, you are drawn to dark roast coffee beans at the store and look for coffee adjectives such as bold, deep, or rich, choose the bold brew setting. Brew any amount with full flavorSometimes you need a full carafe of coffee; other times only one or two cups are needed. With the 1 4-cup brewing option, the coffeemaker optimizes the brewing cycle to ensure the smaller batch has maximum flavor extraction. Expect the same great results as you would get with a full carafe.
- 3 brew strength options-regular, bold, and 1 to 4 cups
- Easy-pour carafe for no-mess pouring
- Sleek stainless steel design
- Cone-shaped brew basket

Great coffee maker, it does exactly what it claims to do…make a great cup of coffee. I like the stainless steel design – it matches everything in the kitchen and is very modern. I leave for work very early so the programmable feature is a must for me – I can grab my coffee and run out the door. If I forget to turn it off it turns off automatically in two hours. It’s easy to use, easy to program, easy to clean. The clock and all buttons are on the top above the pot – I really like the setup. Different brew options are great for guests too. It all seems to be made well – I have no complaints.

This coffee pot works well. It’s very simple to set up and program. Nothing technical about it. I set it to brew at 5:30 am and it was ready when I got up at 6 so I’m not sure how long it took to brew. Has a nice look of black and stainless steel. Looks smart on my counter top.

I’m a heavy coffee drinker, so I know my way around coffee makers. If you want a coffee maker you can program. This Hamilton Beach is an excellent brewer. I tend to forget to turn off my coffee pot, I cannot tell you how many pots I’ve burnt or broken from leaving the heating plate on. This coffee maker has an automatic 2 hour automatic shut off. Saves me from having to remember to turn it off. Not only is this coffee maker easy to use, it’s very stylish.

Solid machine, excellent coffee. Use it daily, sometimes twice. We are always making the full 12 cups, so I can’t rate the smaller batch option that it has. We can tell the difference between the bolder brew and regular option though, and it delivers as promised. Basket is nice and tight, so no grounds falling anywhere during drip. Takes cone filters rather than basket filters. Excellent value for the price. Coffee hot, and well-flavored, all used beans appear well saturated due to dispersed drip system (no puddling in one area, other beans drier). Auto shut off works well.

I wanted a reasonably priced, cone filter coffee maker and ordered this one. I’ve owned mine for 2 months. Very nice design with a sleek, modern look. Brews very quickly and was easy to program right out of the box. I really enjoy the flexibility to brew different strengths of coffee to meet my guest’s tastes. My lid doesn’t snap down like I thought it would but it doesn’t affect the brewing process.

just got this coffeemaker a couple of days ago but I am loving the fact that I can load it up at night , program it and wake up to the smell of fresh brewed coffee, I also like the pause and serve that allows me to pour a cup before the pot is finished

I am a serious coffee drinker and I like to be able to fix myself a cup or two without much trouble. This little coffeemaker fits the bill. It takes up very little room on the kitchen counter, is easy to fill, I like the filter A LOT. You can’t put it any of the parts in the dishwasher, but washing only takes 2 minutes.I didn’t want or need anything complicated or expensive. I am very happy with this coffeemaker.

What an excellent deal for the price! I have zero complaints on this coffee makers performance. My one qualm would be that you can’t alter the 2 hour hard coded shut off. Aside from that…it’s everything I want and more from a coffee maker!

This is a very good coffee maker. It’s simple to use, you can make coffee in minutes or program it to make your coffee automatically with the timer. When the coffee is done, you can turn it off manually or it will shut off on its own after two hours. You can easily set it to regular or bold coffee. I like the bold setting, and being able to personalize it for the strength of coffee I prefer is one of my favorite features of this coffee maker.For review purposes, I tried it with small amounts of coffee, making 2 cups at a time. Also with a full pot. Both came hot and perfect. I’ve made it with just hot water for a pot of tea, also perfect. If you’re looking for easy to use coffee maker, something that doesn’t take up a lot of room on the counter, and makes a great, hot pot of coffee, this is one I recommend.

Great coffee pot. I didn’t realize that it uses cone filters, but no big deal. In my opinion, this actually brews a better cup of coffee, especially when using the bold brew option. I love the fact that it is programmable. I no longer have to wait for it to brew, I can have fresh brewed coffee as soon as I wake up. An added bonus, the black and stainless look matches my other appliances.

Best part it works great. Worst part. They don’t carry it in the stores. Must order online and wait for it.

I like the design of this coffee maker,that it has an easy to pour carafe.I find the options button handy for when you want fewer cups of coffee yet you want it stronger.The programmable clock and timer are a nice feature , gets your coffee started before you get up.The auto pause and serve is also a nice feature.The carafe and brew basket are dishwasher safe which is great. so many features on the coffee maker. I did find one little flaw and that is the lid don’t stay closed when brewing, it in no way interferes with any of the functions of this maker.

Great Coffee maker. I hope and pray it’ll last me a good number of years. I just have one ity-bity complain. I just wish the panel where the time is would light up. Other than that it makes a great cup of coffee.
