Who needs a clock on a coffee maker, fer
christ's sake?


If you want it to make your coffee in the morning so it is ready when
you get up.?




I like fresh ground, so I set up the pot and the grinder at night. When
I get up, I grind the beans, dump them in the basket, and flip the power
switch. By the time I pee and have a glass of OJ, the coffee is ready.

I did have a g.f. once who had an automatic coffee pot with timer and
built-in grinder, but it had too many parts to clean and fuss over.

Besides, I just get up when I'm done sleeping. Sometimes it's 4 a.m. and
sometimes it's 9:00 a.m. How's a timer going to account for that?
