If I want to wake up to a hot cup of coffee, can I set this coffeemaker the night before and it will brew at, say 6 AM?

Yes - but unless Mr. Coffee has improved its quality control, this coffee maker is likely to leak and subsequently quit completely. See the reviews on Amazon. (The most recent review mentioning leakage was a month ago, so I suspect it continues to be an unreliable product.) Mine leaked a little from the very beginning, but not enough to be unusable. However it stopped completely after a year.

I don't think there is a way to turn the warmer on after the two hours. I've been removing the carafe and running 2 cups (the minimum for a carafe) into a small pot and discarding this water. This "resets" the clock and I just put my carafe of coffee back on the warmer. Yes, fresh coffee is indeed better, but in certain circumstances its nice to be able to have the warmer on for an extended period of time.

The only solution to this problem that I can think of is that you may have another setting on at the same time. For example, if you've set the auto brew to brew at a specific time in the future, and you've pushed that button, telling it to brew at that future time, it won't brew if you press the brew button. You must cancel the other command for it to obey the brew command. Hope this helps. I really like this coffee maker. I've had it for about a year now and I haven't had any problems.

1. Make sure clock has been set to correct time of day. 2. Press PRoGRAM (PRoG) button; the AUTo light will flash several times. 3. digital clock displays 12:00 or previous preset delayed brewing start time. Note: If setting is not changed before AUTo light stops flashing, the clock will revert to the correct time of day. You must press the PRoG button again and re-enter your desired brew time. 4. To change time, press HoUR button until desired correct hour appears on display. Repeat with MINUTe (MIN) button within 5 seconds. 5. Press AUTo button to activate delayed brewing. AUTo indicator light will illuminate on digital display screen. 6. To check preset delayed brew time, press PRoG button and display will show time selected for delayed brewing to begin. Press AUTo button to return to delayed Brewing cycle. 7. To cancel AUTo brew, press oN/oFF button to brew coffee, or press oN

I never tried, the item does have programmable features. I don't want a cup of coffee cooling off waiting for me to grab it. I set mine to turn on and off during the morning in order to have the water pre-heated, it only takes 1 minute to brew a cup of coffee after the water is hot.

Yes, you can I have used it that way. all you have to do is turn it off after it brews...don't add ice so once the automatic blend cycle starts it's only coffee. Hope that helps.

I press the program button, then I punch in the hour and minute I want it to start brewing. Usually 30 minutes before I wake I set mine. One the time is punched in I push the "Auto On" button.

A blind person can do it. The grind setting comes up a 4 default when you plug it in. If you do not use the timer to brew coffee the next morning you will just need to use three of the buttons. The "On" button to turn on and off and to get another hour of hot coffee (it turns off after one hour as a safety feature) The "Mill" button which turns off the grinder for use with already ground coffee. the "Grind" button to change the time the coffee grinder stays on and thus the fineness of the ground coffee. Yes it is worth the money. It is the easies to use mill and brew on the market and the easiest to clean and the quietest and the cheapest to buy and you do not need to buy paper filter. It makes the best coffee too. Email me at samova1@verizon.net if you have any more questions about this coffee maker. I have had one for the last 10 years and I marvel each morning on how great the coffee tastes. This is the #1 best selling mill & brew in the United States and has been for the last 15 or 20 years. Nothing beats it for price, ease of use, ease of cleaning, noise etc. It does have a few weak points like the latch on the top cover is plastic and breaks a lot but I can tell you how to keep it from breaking and if it does break the parts are cheap and it is easy to repair. I can tell even a child how to fix it if it breaks. Email me or Call Sam at 540-869-1741 and I will help you at my cost plus shipping for parts. And I will give you free advise on how to care for this machine and tell you what coffee beans to buy. Call Sam at 540-869-1741 I am an expret on this machine. I can fix it in the dark I think.......

Since we bought it, it works like a champ. We preset for 7 am and it never fails. Brew time is a couple of minutes, although I have never really timed it.

It has a clock. By a timer, if you mean can you set the coffee to come on at a time that you set, yes. It also turns itself off after a pre-determined time ( I believe it is one hour.) Every evening before I go to bed, I pre-set my Mr. Coffee to come in the morning and get up to the smell of fresh coffee. I love it. I hope this helps. If not, I will try to answer any other question.

Yes - you can brew coffee and put in fridge for next day. It's hot or cold.

No the coffee pot turns off after a perset time. There is n o way to preset the timer.I haven't tried it but you might be able to leave t on and plug it into a timed outlet and it would turn on.I haven't tried it. E Baker

My Keurig B60 does the same thing. I can't seem to set the clock anymore it keeps jumping to the next setting every time I press the small brew button for "H". It shuts off and on automatically and when I get home from work I have to go through the same run-around to make a cup of coffee. I think I'll call customer service as well. This is the second one I have had. The first one wouldn't go through the priming. that was a bad start.

No. And it doesnt even work anymore. Had it for like 2 months, used it only a couple dozen times. It started only making maybe half a pot after a couple uses, and less from there out. But if youre out of things to do at 4 am, you can turn the power button on and off a few times, and get a cup or two, then repeat. Repeat, and repeat. During that time, hot coffee? Save the money and boil your own.

I agree that the coffee is not really hot enough. The solution is to heat the pot with hot tap water or even a hot spot before starting the coffee. However, this doesn't work if you put the coffee together the night before and want to simply push start in the morning. Than being said, slightly cooler coffee beats old and burnt any day.

You can set the brewer to turn on or off at certain times. This way the water is heated and ready, you can load your coffee pod, place your cup and then simply push the button when you are ready! Pretty simple.

I don't think so, but it makes coffee so fast, you don't need to use an external timer. Just set it up the night before and hit the switch when you get up. It takes less than five minutes to make the pot of coffee, and it is some of the best coffee we have been able to make at home!
