I'm not big on french presses, especially for everyday convenience. The Bunn, suggested above, looks like it will fit into my "list to choose from" though. A french press is always a "nice to have" but a electric drip and a thermal carafe, is a necessity. especially since this coffee maker will be used daily, (as they changed coffee brands at work to Dunkin' Donuts and I'm going to be needing to brew my own at home to take in, they are pushing me out, slowely I tell ya). I like "trusting" the coffee maker than the temp is going to be perfect.
I need bigger than a 5 cup too...10 would be perfect, 12, maybe a little too big, but if the footprint isn't huge, I don't mind a 12.
No espresso machine.....yet...don't need one....yet.
Agree, on the grinder and beans BDL. And, even in a nice college town (Rutgers - New Brunswick, NJ) It's hard to find a good coffee house....
thanks guys. I'll be honest, before I posted, i was/am sold on the technivorm, but I hate the feeling of only having 1 option and impulse buying. The old RPM would have went to the store and bought the best most expensive, i'm trying to be the New RPM, and research a little more, while saving some money.
