Customer Reviews

We'd switched to a Breville BKC700XL Gourmet Single-Serve Coffeemaker with Iced-Beverage Function (which I was fortunate to review for Amazon Vine) because it seems like every drip coffee maker we buy quits on us within a few months. But we just can't afford the K-cups, and using our own coffee with the My K-cup setup has been really messy and time-consuming. (Don't get me wrong: I love coffee made with the Breville, but sometimes you just want decent coffee fast and lots of it. There's a little more bitterness with a drip maker than with K-cups, but that just makes the coffee seem stronger.)
Out of the box, it's clear that the Frigidaire Professional 12-Cup Drip Coffee Maker is of a higher class than your typical plastic drip coffee makers. Its appearance is solid, sleek, and industrial-looking. This is the kind of coffee maker I'd expect to see in a small office setting. It's tall, so be sure to measure your cabinets if you think you're going to want to slide it under them. (It doesn't fit under mine, but my cabinets are set too low even for a shorter coffee maker.) The entire top lifts up to pour in the water and access the filter, so keep that in mind.
One thing I love about this coffee maker is that you can set it to brew at high temperature, which will extract the coffee better than your usual drip makers. [UPDATE: The coffee maker brews with "superheated water"; as pointed out in the comments, this temperature is not adjustable. I misunderstood the manual and just left it at what I thought was the default highest temp for my testing.] You can also set it to brew regular strength or strong, and we've been using strong. It's definitely stronger than coffee from our Breville. We've been using the included reuseable gold filter so far, which does allow some fine dregs through, so next time we're at the grocery store we'll be getting some cone filters to use with it. I'm thinking the coffee is going to taste fabulous when filtered through a paper filter. (Users are cautioned not to use the gold filter and a paper cone filter simultaneously to avoid major overflow accidents, so if you're one of those who ignores the requisite "read before using" instructions, tuck this caveat into the back of your mind.)
After brewing, you have a (programmable) maximum of 120 minutes of warming before the bottom burner shuts off automatically. The lighted LED window shows you how much warming time is remaining and also the strength of your coffee and its brewed temperature. You can set the pot for autobrew, but we typically don't bother with that. It takes about 12 minutes to brew a full pot, which is less time than it used to take for two of us to individually load up and brew one cup each with the Breville/My K-cup setup. We're in a routine now of me pouring water into our Berkey (Big Berkey w/ 2 Black Berkey) before we go to bed at night and DH getting up before me to start the pot.
Which leads to the filter. The Frigidaire has a charcoal filter to filter your tap water for best taste. We're using it now as I test the product, but once it's past its use date, we'll probably not replace it. The coffee maker is smart enough to tell you when it's time to change the filter. It will work without it, but those who don't filter their tap water separately may wish to use filters, and the change filter notification feature is really quite nice.

This is a replacement for my old Cuisinart coffee maker which I had for about three years. I loved my old one even if It was not avant-garde. However, this new Frigidaire Professional model is a winner. All of the small annoyances of the Cuisinart have been solved by Frigidaire, such as a water level indicator on the outside of the unit, the large LCD display easy to read, great stainless steel look. I find it takes about one minute per cup... 12 minutes for twelve cups, not bad at all. I saw that Frigidaire Professional just produced a 2-slice toaster with similar great appearance so I plan to replace my pop-up two slice toaster to have the same look on my countertop to complement the coffee maker.
I ENTHUSIASTICALLY RECOMMEND IT!
