4. Cuisinart DCC-3000 Coffee on Demand
Dispenses one cup at a time or a full carafe

In this unusual brewer, a whole “pot” of coffee is brewed at once, but rather than dripping into a carafe, the Cuisinart DCC-3000 Coffee on Demand fills up an internal reservoir. You then dispense just one cup at a time, the way you would from an urn or a soda machine. It’s a great choice if people in your household drift into the kitchen for their morning java at various times or if you find yourself returning throughout the morning to refill your mug. On Amazon, reviewers customers report that they find the coffee tastes just as good a few hours later as it does right after it was brewed.
The water tank is removable and can easily be filled at the sink. As this machine eliminates the need to pour from a carafe, you don’t get those otherwise-inevitable splashes to wipe up.
