If you want a one cup coffee maker for just enjoying a cup of coffee every now and then, you won't have any difficulty buying a small coffee percolator for your needs. Many people have this type of coffee pot in the office or even in the bedroom, so that you can have your favorite java at any time. When you wake in the morning, you don't have to go downstairs to fill the filter basket with your favorite flavor of grinds. If you fill the water tank and put in the grinds the night before, all you have to do flick the on switch of the percolator when the alarm sounds in the morning. By the time you are out of the shower, you can sit and enjoy the great taste of French Roast.
The Melitta coffee pot actually has the radio alarm built right in. When you wake up, you can hit the on switch of the percolator and then the snooze button to get that extra few winks before the coffee grinds are brewed. You can choose either a one or two cup operations because the pot can actually hold two cups of coffee. The cups come with the Melitta, as well as two permanent filters and an anti drip valve. The cups are made of stainless steel so they will keep the java hot for you while you get dressed.
Metlita makes more than coffee
The Meltita also makes tea, if that is your favorite beverage. All you have to do is add the tea bags or the coffee grinds. You don't need to use any special pods of cartridges. If the power goes out during the night, the Melitta also has a battery back up, so the alarm will still go off and the coffee will help to warm you up.
If you accidentally break the coffee pot, you won't have any difficulty being able to purchase a replacement carafe. Melitta also sells the carafes separately and if you do have a model that takes paper filters, the number 6 filters work with most percolators. Before you buy the coffee maker, you can also check the filter that it takes because you can also get the cone coffee filter that is guaranteed not to burst open and spill the grinds all over the floor when you are trying to get it to the garbage can.
