re: Question for the coffee pros

I bought a bonavita about 2 months ago and it's kind of bare bones, but it makes a great cup of coffee.

It's certified by the specialty coffee assoc of America. The first one I had was the bunn that is certified by them as well. The bunn takes about 10-15 min to make a cup. The bonavita takes about 5 min and comes with the thermal carafe.

It's about $180, but I found it on clearance at bed bath and got the extra 20% off. Paid $80 for it. There are no timers or anything, but like I said it's pretty quick. So if you put your grinds and hit the button it's done in like 5 min.

The certified deal, means the pot actually gets the water up to the appropriate temps for the best brews.

Always have the French press and the drip deals which probably make overall better coffee. But, for a pot and under $200 this little thing is pretty good.
