Mr. Coffee 14-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker ☕
Description:
This programmable drip coffee maker prepares large batches so you can have hot coffee ready for family mornings or small gatherings. With a 14-cup capacity and a one-touch strong-brew option, it aims to balance convenience and flavor for everyday use.
Key Points
The machine features a generous 14-cup capacity and a small-batch selector for 1 to 4 cups, making it flexible for both full pots and shorter runs. It includes a Grab-a-Cup pause function that lets you pour a cup mid-brew without making a mess. The unit also offers an adjustable keep-warm timer that maintains serving temperature for 1 to 4 hours, according to the manufacturer. ☕️
One standout control is the Strong Brew button, which increases extraction for a bolder cup at the touch of a button. A reusable nylon filter is included and is dishwasher safe, helping reduce waste and simplifying cleanup. Note that the reusable filter may leave some fine grounds compared to paper filters, so consider this when you prefer a cleaner finish.

Usage Recommendations
For best results with the Strong Brew option, use a medium-fine grind and slightly more coffee per cup than you would for standard brew strength. If you brew smaller batches often, run the small-batch selector to optimize water flow and extraction. Clean the reusable nylon filter regularly and descale the brewer periodically to maintain flavor clarity and heating efficiency. Consider using filtered water to minimize mineral buildup over time.
