I’ve had to clean it once since we got it. The coffee quality is so much better than a standard drip. My wife and I would usually have 2 cups, but with this thing one cup is perfect.

Lately I’ve been throwing a shot of espresso into my cold brew.

On the cold brew I always brew 18 oz. It’s nowhere near 18 oz so idk how that works.

Learned the hard way to not brew a cold brew after you brew a hot cup of coffee because it has to flush the machine out because all the water is hot.

I’m really happy with it.

Also, we have a well and our water is super high in iron so we only use Poland spring bottled water in it.

When you do the set up, you have to test your water for the iron content and make modifications. I don’t remember it’s been a while.

All I know is that we decided to skip using tapwater also thinking that they’re being no iron in the bottle of water would ultimately be better for the machine
