Review on ☕ Delonghi DCF2212T Black Drip Coffee Maker: 12-Cup Glass Carafe for Perfectly Brewed Coffee by Brad Wall

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I think it's ok. The Best Coffee Makers

The drawer is the best. Very convenient for adding water, filters and coffee grounds. Otherwise there is nothing special about it. Most cabinets are about 16 inches from the countertop. This piece is 13 inches tall so it goes well with wall cabinets. It comes out of two small slits on the back, at the top of the pan. I didn't like it as the sockets are about that high and if you don't think there is steam blowing into the socket. . Not good. So I taped a small piece (about an inch square) of black gorilla tape over these holes. The problem is solved. Unless you plan on making a full pot (12 cups) every morning, you can forget about warming up the cups on the upstairs counter. It will not heat at all. We poured a couple full pots of water when she arrived to clean it up and that plate was barely warm towards the end of the process, but even then it was nothing more than something you could pass your hands on when you're in one Cold stood kitchen. It also seems to take a long time to cook. This is especially true when using the Aroma feature. You'll get the most delicious cup of coffee by pressing the "aroma button" right after the brew has started, but it's a start-and-stop process and about ten minutes that could have taken 4 cups becomes about 15 minutes. 20 minutes. If you want to use the aroma function for a full pot, you will need a book to read. And literally, there are no frills. It doesn't beep when your coffee is ready, it doesn't beep when you turn it on. Nothing. The best I can say is that if you use good quality coffee, say Starbucks Verona Ground, you get quality coffee. a cup of coffee, but other than that I think it's really just okay.
