Review on ☕ Braun KF7070 BrewSense Drip Glass Coffeemaker: 12 Cup Stainless Steel Brewer by Marina Smith

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice design and looks, but there are flaws

Want a beautiful, modern coffee maker to match your stainless steel kitchen? If so, then that's it! Forget how he makes great coffee. It is simply worth it as a high-quality decoration for your kitchen at a reasonable price. Your visitors will drool whether they drink coffee or not. Seriously, this is a quality product made with German technology by Braun, but lacks the upgrades found in the later-improved KF7150BK. It has almost all the bells and whistles like auto on/off, 1-4 cup settings you need. But it's almost impossible to program with an unreadable display. The steal cup function actually works as well as any drip coffee maker I've had - sometimes! I had to return it but fell in love with its beauty and missed the return deadline. I recently bought a Braun KF7150BK coffee maker for my summer house, which solved the display problem with a new backlit display design and a simplified programming interface. The problem with all filter coffee makers is the small size of the cone. Overflowing may occur with finer ground coffee and 6 or 7 scoops of premium coffee and a paper filter. Believe me, I've tried several well-known brands and they all make it with finely ground coffee. The only solution is to use a coarser grind or a #6 paper filter instead of #4. Particle #6 needs to be bent slightly to fill the cone, giving the coffee more time to filter. Revain sells Melitta #6 filters. Otherwise, use a coarser grind, make fewer cups, or try a gold filter instead of paper.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Crumpled
