mine took over 15 min to make 12 cups is that right?

I timed mine this morning so I could give you an accurate answer. From the time I pressed the start button until the ready beeps sounded it was exactly 11 minutes and 45 seconds. This is much faster than my old black and decker coffee maker. With this one you don't have to wait for the ready beep since you can dispense coffee at any time during the brewing process.

10-15min to make a awesome cup of coffee is normal. You want FAST crappy coffee? go to starbucks. Coffee beans take time to presoak and cooked heated boiled, milked whatever to make the perfect aroma'ed coffee. Time to enjoy that coffee.

That seems awfully long. I just made 6 cups this morning and it was under 5 minutes.

I've never timed it, but it does seem to take a bit longer than a standard brewer.

I haven't paid much attention to how long it takes since I use the program function so it's ready when we wake up. I've only used it two or three times outside of that.

I have it programmed so don't really pay attention. I do know if the BOLD appears it slows down the process..this is my 3rd Brewstation.

Not the fastest in the world; to make an entire pot takes about 15 minutes. HUGE design flaw--- you have to pour PAINFULLY slow or else you pour an additional cup all over your counter. Seems to have more to do with the angle, I switched to pouring over my sink and have had fewer spills. Still, a consideration....

Yes, simply adjust the water and grounds to your needs for the moment - however, the indicator shows up at 14 cups, so if you are brewing less than that, then it may be a little difficult to judge.

Hi Susan. I haven't yet brewed a full pot! I only make around 5 or 6 cups at a time and that takes about 5 minutes. I'm happy to brew a full pot over the weekend and give you an accurate answer if you wanna wait for me...

I always finish my coffee in less than 12-hours so I don't know for sure if that claim is true. I do know that when I pour a cup of coffee at 8:00 am (with the bottle kept indoors at room temperature) that, although my coffee is not as hot as when it was poured, it is still hot at 4:00 pm.

I have never timed the process. It seems to me is very quick. Nintey nine percent of the time I use the timer and the coffee is waiting for me in the morning. The best of 3 well know brands of coffee makers I have gone through in the past 2 years. Would recommend.

Absolutely not. I have used 20 seconds with an empty jar a number of times to brew 8 cups of freshly ground coffee.

No once you push the button it should make the 12 cups. I hope youYou got it replaced.

It depends on how strong you like your coffee. We make ours in a 12 cup coffee pot and I put 5 scoops of grounds in. It would take two grinding runs to produce that amount of coffee grounds, however its just a touch of a button and 30 seconds to do it so its relatively quick and pain free.

From the time you pour in the water and hit the "on" button, it is 5 minutes to get 15 oz of coffee. Less time, I assume for less coffee. The Kitchenaid can make a hair over 18 oz max in one brewing.

I've never timed it. It's fairly short, maybe 5 minutes. I believe it percs too quickly because there is evidence that the water is overloading the basket containing the coffee grounds. A significant quantity of grounds end up in the bottom of the pot and in your cup when the coffee is poured.

I haven't timed it. Offhand, I would say that it takes about as long as one of those small coffee makers that are found in most hotel rooms. I'll time it over the weekend and give you a better answer on Monday.

We usually make 6 cups, and it doesn't take anymore than 5 minutes. I've never actually timed it but it doesn't seem to take very long at all. So a full pot should take approx. 10 minutes.

My instruction booklet says to use at least 1 cup of water. Thats what I use for vegetables, anything cooked under 15 minutes.

I haven't timed it exactly, but I made the coffee at about 7:30 and finished it at about 11 one morning. It wasn't piping hot like it is when it's fresh out of the coffeemaker, but it was definitely more than just lukewarm.

Sorry I can't help. I have only tried boiling for 3 min. as the instructions give. I have a Kurig and nothing larger to make more than one cup.

I timed it by filling it to the "max" line, which is over 2x 1 cup but I wanted to get the longest reading possible. It boiled and shut off in almost 5 minutes exactly (4:58). Keep in mind, that was for 17 ounces and the tap water is especially cold right now so I can't imagine it EVER taking any longer.
