Similar to water dispensers on a refrigerator the BrewSation dispenses directly into the mug. No pot means the coffee tastes better because its not sitting on a hot plate for hours. The BrewStation has a unique method of brewing coffee. First a powerful center heater brews the coffee then a gentle keep-warm heater maintains a perfect temperature without scorching the coffee flavor. The brewing reservoir is enclosed sealing in the flavor. Coffee tastes great longer from the first cup to the last. The BrewStation 6-cup coffeemaker has plenty of room to fill-up tall travel mugs and its compact design will fit nicely in any kitchen dcor. Coffee lovers get their favorite ground coffee one-cup-a-time just the way they like it. The BrewStation 6-cup coffeemaker comes complete with a programmable digital clock with automatic shutoff. 6-Cup CapacityDual Heaters Brew Quickly Then Keep Flavor FreshOne-Hand Dispensing24-Hour Programmable Digital Clock09/01/2011header1 year limited warranty on defects in materials and workmanship
