We have owned our Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker for almost two years and it is still going strong. For less than thirty dollars, we purchased a wonderful coffee maker that brews two fourteen ounce travel mugs of coffee at the same time. This makes getting out the door on hectic mornings a breeze also reduces the amount of coffee that gets wasted in our home.
The Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker has a unique design. The flow nozzle disperses an even amount of fresh brewed coffee into each of the thermal travel mugs. Each travel mug holds an ample fourteen ounces of coffee. After inserting a Melitta Number two paper filter cone into the filter basket and filling with enough coffee to suit your personal taste, simply pour cold, fresh water into the water chamber. There is a convenient water level indicator on the side of the Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker which helps to ensure you do not pour too much or too little water into the coffee maker. If you are making only one fourteen ounce travel mug of coffee, you pour enough water in to reach Level 1. If you are preparing two thermal travel mugs of coffee, you pour enough water in the unit until it reaches Level 2. It is quite unpleasant to anticipate a delicious cup of coffee in the morning and then taking a sip and finding out you added either too much water in the coffee maker, resulting in watery coffee, or too little water which can make the coffee stronger than you like. Never a problem with the Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker. You get one or two perfect mugs of coffee each and every time.
The Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker also reduces the amount of coffee that gets wasted. After approximating the number of cups of coffee you need in the morning, you may make half a pot and then find that you only have the taste for one cup. Unless you can tolerate reheated coffee later in the day, you will need to pour the remainder of the pot down the drain. This is just like pouring your hard earned money down the drain. Good, quality coffee is expensive and it shouldn’t be wasted. The Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker makes preparing the exact amount of coffee you want foolproof.
The Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker has several features that I really like. One of these features is the the Indicator Light. Approximately two minutes after the brewing process is complete, the Indicator Light turns off. This ensures that I won’t forget to turn off the coffee maker before leaving the house which is an excellent safety feature. The coffee maker also has a built in overflow tray that the travel mugs sit on. In case of any drips, I don’t wind up with a mess down the front of the coffee maker or on my counter.
The Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker is a perfect Holiday gift for a couple who both have hectic schedules and need to be out the door on time in the morning. Instead of brewing a pot of coffee and then transferring the coffee into two travel mugs before heading out for the day, this coffee maker brews the coffee right into the travel mugs. This will save them money on wasted coffee from the pot and also prevent a mishap from accidentally leaving the coffee maker on before heading off to work. Treat your dual career couple to the Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker this Christmas. They will love it as much as I do.
