[Electronics-talk] coffee makers

[Elizabeth Campbell]

Hello all,
I have a Keurig mini brewer, and I use the my k-cup filter to prepare  my
own coffee when I am running low on K-cups. I also have an older model of
the Cuisine Art grind and brew machine. So far, I havent' had any difficulty
in using either one I prefer the Keurig when I am getting ready for work,
and I enjoy preparing coffee in the grind and brew maker when I have a bit
more time.
I also like a brand of K-cups called San Francisco Bay. The coffees are
quite robust and the K-cups are made mostly from paper, so they are a little
easier to dispose of.

Best

Mine is a Hamilton Beach that I recently got for Christmas.  It has a pot on
one side and a single serve component on the other.  The filter baskets come
out easily and the button to start the brewing process is a round button
that's easy to find.  I'm sure there are other features to it that I haven't
figured out yet but so far it meets my needs.  
Also, Tracy's right, it does take a bit of prep work to make coffee and a
bit to clean up.  With my old coffee maker I used to use a funnel to pour
the water in to it because I kept pouring water on to to the counter.  If
the issue is that you haven't done it a lot all I can say to do is practice
and keep practicing.  I'm totally blind also and it took me years before I
could make a decent cup of coffee.  My dad is sighted and has been making
coffee for years and still makes a huge mess.  
If there's a touch screen involved maybe there's a way to mark it with puffy
paint or Braille markings.  Good luck and happy coffee drinking.  :) Serena
