    Flex Brew - Makes Coffee 3 Ways.

    I thought I would make a bit more room in my tiny NYC apartment kitchen by buying one appliance to do the work of two. That's why I bought the Hamilton Beach FlexBrew that offers 3 ways to brew coffee. You can make up to 12 cups with ground coffee on the carafe side or use dual purpose single serving inserts to brew a pod or ground coffee on the other. The included pod holder and single-serve grounds basket handle both options. A nice feature is that the cup rest can be removed so you can brew coffee into a tall travel mug. This coffee maker side has something they call Easy-Touch programming. After brewing, coffee stays warm for 2 hours and the power automatically shuts off. It does have a pause & pour feature so you pour a cup as coffee brews.There is a also a choice of regular and bold brewing options. Each brewing side its own water reservoir. I like the water fill windows that let you see exactly how much water you've added. $99.00. It makes great carafe coffee and K-cup coffee, but it's a bit messy to clean up when you use the extra large 'use your own ground coffee' option since there's only the built-in filter which has to be cleaned each time you use. You'll hear more of my thoughts on this machine in the video on this week's show. I bought mine on Amazon, where it was, and still is $99.00. I think that's a great price for all the machine does.
