One Cup at a Time Coffee Makers Make a Lot of Sense

Wish you could brew your coffee one cup at a time? Coffee makers traditionally have not been designed to handle such a short order. After all, what better thing is there to do after finishing a satisfying dinner with the family than brewing a full pot of coffee and then slowly sipping it with dessert? Family dinners, who has time for family dinners anymore?

Today, dinner consists of anything that can be grabbed while on the go. And the same goes for our coffee. The proof is all around you. Look around and you’ll see that coffee shops dot just about every well-traveled corner. And in the kitchen, the hottest new gadgets are the one cup at a time coffee makers. With only a coffee “pod” in hand and the push of a button, freshly brewed coffee is yours and yours alone. If someone else wants a cup, too bad! They’ll have to make their own.

To keep up with the demand for great coffee quickly and easily, all the well-known small appliance manufacturers have developed a version of the one cup at a time coffee makers: Black & Decker, Senseo, Philips, Melitta, with others arriving all the time. They all function in basically the same manner; have your mug ready, pop in your favorite coffee-flavored pod and before you can read the headline of the daily newspaper you’ve got yourself a hot, steamy cup of coffee. Some even add a layer of froth to the top! And cleaning up is just as easy.

One cup at a time coffee makers are great for the home and even the small office. Anywhere where a full pot of coffee gets bitter before it’s fully consumed is where one of these handy gadgets belongs.
