Connoisseur's drip maker

bynordmann Oct 28, 2005
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Great-tasting coffee. Thermal carafe doesn't burn the coffee to oblivion on a...
Cons If anything goes wrong during the brewing process, you have a mess to clean up.
Recommended it? Yes

I'm very picky about my coffee, and prefer that it taste in the cup the way coffee smells as it's being ground. I used to think that the only ways of experiencing this level of coffee flavor was to hand-drip it through a Chemex funnel or to go to a top-notch coffee house. Although this maker has...

Pros Looks nice in the kitchen
Cons Pouring takes time, coffee does not stay hot, expensive
Recommended it? No

Yeah the coffee taste great but it taste just as great in a $60 Braun Aroma Select.

I brought this pot because I thought I would be enlightened to a new coffee brewing experience. The hassles with this pot along with it's ridiculous price really enlightened me.

You don't need to... Read full review »

Excellent Product - Great Coffee

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros great coffee, beautiful design, insulated carafe, auto shut off
Cons carafe smaller than reservoir, a tad expensive
Recommended it? Yes

This replaces an 8 year old Krups 12 cup.

Purchased from Sur La Table in Scottsdale.

I followed the instructions and ran a couple of full pots of water through the machine prior to use. The instructions don't seem to indicate that you should rinse the filter prior to use, but... Read full review »

Capresso Brand

bymoonchic1 Aug 27, 2005
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Insulated Carafe - water filter
Cons CHEAPLY made and Unreliable!
Recommended it? No

Don't bother - not worth the money. I bought a capresso for the insulated carafe and the water filter. Within the first two months the LCD clock broke. Within the first 6 months, one of the plastic pieces that stops the coffee from dripping when you remove the carafe, broke. Now, one year and half... Read full review »

Don't Waste Your Money

Pros Insulated carafe. Looks nice.
Cons Too easily makes a mess. Way too complicated.
Recommended it? No

I bought this product, despite the high price, because I liked the idea of the insulated carafe as well as the built-in timer. It's also a very good-looking machine that you don't mind sitting out on your counter.

Although the coffee is good, it isn't extraordinary. In fact I think it... Read full review »

Makes a good cup of coffee quickly and without having to use excess amounts of coffee like other coffee makers. Would buy this product again. Read full review »

Pros Best Tasting Coffee
Cons Price, one piece lid, carafe lid alignment indicator
Recommended it? Yes

My wife and I have had our MT500 for about a year now and we both really like it. It makes the best coffee we have ever had at home.

We fill it with water and grounds before going to bed. I used the instructions to set the clock and timer the first time I used it. Now it almost never... Read full review »

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Makes great coffee - which is the point of a coffeemaker!
Cons Water-level gauge could be easier to read.
Recommended it? Yes

We love coffee! After years of looking for "the" right coffeemaker, I believe I have finally found it! All the popular brands had so many negative reviews, I finally decided to spend the extra money and get the Capresso MT500. It makes great coffee! I have not had any bad experiences like some...

Pros Well built and looks nice.
Cons Expensive, weak coffee, sloppy pouring.
Recommended it? No

I have been a coffee snob for about 20 years, only drinking premium coffees such as Peets, Gevalia, Melitta and Starbucks, almost always grinding my beans with a $150 burr grinder. After 12 years of using a non-thermal Krups coffee maker, I wanted to try a thermal carafe coffee maker so I could... Read full review »

Capresso MT 500 Coffee Maker: The Cadillac of drip coffee makers

Pros Best brew, great appearance, solid construction
Cons Quality doesn't come cheap
Recommended it? Yes

First off, let me say that drip coffee isn't my favorite way to make coffee. A French press will give you a much better cup. However it isn't always practical or convenient to press coffee. The Capresso MT 500 might be the second best way to make coffee in my opinion, but hey, I'm picky. This is... Read full review »
