How fast does it take to make the coffee? Mt old water pot claimed that it took 3 minutes.

If you fill it up to about 3-4 cups of water, it will take about 3 minutes. It's extremely fast. Pour, set it, walk away for a moment and then walk back. Done. :)

Coffee making will slow down as minerals build up in the machine. I think 3-5 minutes is a good bet, based on how clean the pipes are in the coffee maker. Personally, I like my coffee very strong, so I prefer a slower drip and am happy with the build-up; when i clean (steeping it with vinegar and water and letting that dissolve the build-up) you'll get a faster pot of coffee but you'll need more grounds to make a great dark cup. Hope that helps.

About 3-5 minutes, but I usually wait for about 10 minutes to make sure it has brewed every drop!

3-5 minutes if the water is boiling hot. Probably more like 5-7 minutes if the water is hot but not boiling, like if you had it in the thermos for a few hours.

I would say 2 minutes.We are very pleased with this Mr. Coffee single cup unit.Good buy We have tried some cheaper one, we got rid of them.

It depends more on your stove and how much water you are boiling. The pot has a large capacity, If you fill it, boiling can take about 10 minutes on my stove, which is a Viking. The less water, the shorter the boiling time.

About 2 to 3 minutes depending on how fast you turn the crank. It takes me about 2.5 minutes to grind 3/8 cup of beans (what I use to make 32 oz in a French press).

you can get 4 mugs of water in it. gee I have never timed it. this was a gift for a blind person. he doesn't use a stove anymore so needed a whistle kettle that was electric. I was finding it hard to find one. the whistle isn't very loud but not to bad. I would say it takes maybe 3 min. to heat to boiling for a full kettle. it just seemed very fast. I will be visiting him on Thurs. I can time it for you and reply again. lol uses it quite often and still running great.

I make a nice, big cup of coffe with mine. About 16 oz. I've never actually timed it but I would guess about 5 minutes all told, including the time it takes for the grounds to finish draining. Might take less if you don't gring your coffe as fine as I do.

I have never timed it ... but if you put hot water in the carafe first then empty and brew ... I think it stays hot for about 2 hours ... I like my coffee super hot so I usually drink it before long ... hope this helps!

It's quicker then a normal pot and I would assume it would be as quick as any other electric kettle. It probably depends a large degree on how much water your boiling. It's never taken me 7 minutes but I never fill it to the top.

Oh, it takes a little longer than a drip coffee maker, so about 10 minutes/full pot. It comes out like stovetop perc, but no grains!

It is relatively quick - I would say approximately 5 -10 minutes. The water in the bottom needs to come to a boil, then is forced through the coffee and results in the espresso. It is completely finished when you hear the bubbling noise. It makes a 2 cup espresso. Add frothed milk and you have a cappuccino.

It doesnt take too long however, I need to update my review because I've since had to buy a new coffee pot cuz this one just stopped working. It just wouldnt brew. I would turn it on and nothing would happen. It wasnt even a year old.

Perhaps I just haven't paid that close attention, as I (like a few of those below)fill my unit as I see it gets to around to 1L left. Thus, it is not when I need the water to be hot, so I am not sitting watching the proverbial pot boil. However, it is pretty quick - under 15 minutes for sure. I am also on cooler well water, but it definitely has not taken more than 15 minutes for 3 full liters of boiling hot water. Once it has boiled, depending on the hold temperature you set, your water will remain hot until you put more cool water in the unit.

I have never brewed a single mug, I usually brew a 10 Cup Carafe, and that takes about 12 minutes, using pre ground coffee.

From the time you first push the on switch on back it takes 90 sec. to warm the water to a certain temp., after which it take about 20 seconds to brew a cup. Don't forget their is about 5 different sizes and the pod must say "extra bold" for larger size cups

Depends on cup size. I do a large mug and it takes about 5-6 minutes. Because it uses much less coffee for single cups, it is necessary for it to steep the coffee for a few minutes before filling the cup. Love it, make a single mug for myself every morning.

I only brewed a mug of coffee once but I would guess about 3-4 minutes. I had it on the mild setting though. The mug was not as strong as the pot. If you like strong coffee then I would definitely recommend this coffee maker.
