“Wish it had a thermal carafe!!”

Hamilton Beach 12-Cup Coffeemaker, BrewStation Plus — 

I bought this coffee pot after reading several good reviews on it and am sorry that I spent the money. However, I feel that it is my mistake, not Hamilton Beaches. For years I have had a coffee pot that brews the coffee into a thermal carafe so it stays hot and doesn't continue to cook on a heating element. My old unit was just getting old and needed to be replaced. I loved the concept of this unit and leaped into the purchase without looking further into the construction! When so many of the reviews said that the coffee still tastes great after several hours and is still hot, I assumed that the container that it brews into was thermal. THIS POT DOES NOT HAVE A THERMAL CARAFE, therefore, the coffee continues to "cook" after it completes its brew cycle. It DOES change the taste of the coffee and after a very short time of it sitting on the heating element, the coffee begins to taste old and burned. If you are looking for a coffee pot that stops cooking when it stops brewing DO NOT buy this coffee pot. I think it all depends upon what you are used to. The concept is FABULOUS and I LOVE the ease of use. However, I feel the coffee pot would be WONDERFUL if the company took away the heating element and replaced the container with a thermal carafe. I quit using this coffee pot after a week and went back to my old Mr. Coffee Thermal Carafe coffee maker until I can afford to buy another thermal unit.
