We just bought a Mr. Coffee 12 cups maker, color black for only R$7,00 bucks! Yes! Purchase at the Goodwill store. I disinfected it very well, tested everything, ran water 2 to 3 times, and this morning we had a delicious cup of coffee. It's working marvelous well. Believe me, coffee was much better than the $12,00 dollar Walmart coffee maker that we bought a year earlier. Yes, the ones that are not getting richer in the US are going poor faster than ever. If you live in California, it's even worse. True. Very true. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I purchased my Mr. Coffee brewer a year ago, but have not used it yet due to purchasing my caffeinated beverages on my way to work every morning. I'm trying to be more frugal, so my intent is to start brewing at home prior to work in the morning. Due to my lack of familiarity with my machine, I felt somewhat intimated about the process, but you're video helped alleviate that anxiety immensely. The machine seems "user friendly." I'm excited to start using it.
Got a new red one for Christmas, couldn't make a better cup of coffee! Mr. Coffee makers always made good coffee. And it does look good in my kitchen, too. I highly recommend it. You buy a cheap off brand, you'll get cheap and you'll have it in the trash in a year. Mr. Coffee is made to last for years, with proper care.
Loved the video! I've had mine for over a year(replacing an older model that died)and actually like this one more! Never tried setting the delay; would just fill with water and grounds at night then hit the brew button when I got up in the morning but now needed to program because son starts work at pre-dawn hours and I figured it'd be easier for him to wake up to the smell of coffee. But wouldn't you know I couldn't find the manual so did a Google search and your video showed as recommend. I AGREE! You explained everything perfectly, especially that each user has to play around with the coffee to water ratio according to the brand coffee they use and their tastes. I've discovered filling the water to between 4 and 6 cups and 6 to 7 tablespoons gives the taste I like without hitting strong brew...I use a 10oz coffee mug. THANKS FOR A GREAT VIDEO! No, it was not TMI it was the right amount!😊👍👏💯
On March 2021 I told my husband to buy a SMALL coffee maker for me (I was thinking about those tiny ones). He went to walmart and got one of these 12 cup coffee makers to surprise me and well, he did. At first I was dissapointed because of the size, since I'm the only coffee lover in my house and my kitchen is small, but now, one year later I couldn't live without my 12 cup Mr. Coffee. 😍
loveeed this video, definitely very helpful I just got this coffee maker from my mom and had no idea how to use it since I’ve never had one before especially the part of how much coffee to put in it, thanks 🙌🏼
I just bought this maker Sept, 2022, I couldn't figure out how to set the delay, you explained it so well that I went right in the kitchen and set it no problem. My only question is, do I need to go over all those steps again to set this timer each morning I want it to set again?
Hey, I need to know this so when u turn it on its just already regular? Sorry I am a 13 year hold who is confused on how to work it but this video did help a little, please get back to this if u can
Thank you so much. I did t want to read the instruction book so this was a Godsend to me. Thank you. Mine is slightly different from yours , but I get the gist.
This tutorial was very helpful! I got a Mr Coffee machine this Christmas from my parents, and had no clue how to use it. Only question I have is how to turn on the “brew later” option?
I have the same coffee maker. I don't like the taste of the Kuerig. It tastes too much like instant. I just forgot how to set the time for the time change🤪 .... And I found out it wasn't me! My clock quit working! I guess I'll unplug for a few minutes and then plug it back up and see if it works again!
Thanks for the Review.. Im just Now at the age of 50 getting into the Coffee scene. I've always been a Tea Drinker. Now... I just ordered a Keurig & my Eternal Voice is Saying buy a Coffee Pot. 1) I don't wanna go thru the process of making 3-4 Cups & There Not Cheap & I like my Coffee steaming Hot. So guess I'll be at Target Tomorrow to exchange for a Pot with Change due Back. Lol
Tip: Most coffee makers will tell you to use cool water. I use the hottest out of my kitchen sink. This give the brew a better start out the gate to better coffee. I also use the stainless basket and not the paper bags. When I start the brew, I keep the top open and as the water is coming out of the spout , I turn the basket a little at the time until all of the coffee gets hot water on it. Mr. Coffee machine I have is just like yours. Great machine. But it will wet most of the coffee but not all of it. Try spinning the basket. It works. When the brew is finished, turn the machine off. This will keep the hot plate from cooking your coffee. If the second coffee has cooled down, put it in the microwave. It will not make the coffee taste different as burning it will. I also grind my coffee right before it brew it so I do not use the timer. You don't save any time using the timer. You might get up a little last and have burned coffee too.
Stronger dark-roast coffees naturally have a slightly bitter note to them.. So if you don't like your coffee to have a "bitter" bite to it, then chances are you don't like STRONG coffee.. With that said, I appreciate your review. It was very helpful
Do you know how to troubleshoot this model? When we plug it in, it starts up immediately but the buttons aren’t lighting up and we have to unplug it to shut it off.
I can tell you that the coffee doesn't drain out of the basket fast so it sits and absorbs into the grounds. It's really easy to have the coffee come out too strong if you don't measure correctly. I see your point though.
I have a filter thing that supposed to let me know when I’ve used it for 30 days so I can change something. I’ve got no idea what to do with it. I lost the instruction booklet before I could fully read it. Any help with that?
Does your strong brew light go off after your coffee has finished brewing? I just got this model and mine goes off right after it beeps when it's finished. It wouldn't concern me if it wasn't weak coffee. I had an older Mr. Coffee maker and I use the same amount of water and coffee but the new coffee maker's coffee is weaker. The directions say it should remain in the brew strength I have selected until I change it back to regular.
I have the same coffee maker, i recently got it as a gift from my mom and still trying to figure out how to use it with Folgers coffee grounds but it seems to be flooding the coffee filter a bit and I’m not getting the amount of coffee I want out of it. Any chance I could get some help?
The manual is super helpful until you basically memorize how everything works and measurements. One thing I will say about the coffee measurements is that Tablespoons to water ratio is highly dependent on the beans and whether you hit strong or regular. We typically back off the beans a little because it gets bitter. Enjoy!
Mine lasted 3 weeks. The steam from the coffee is too much for the lcd display and it's shorted out. 10/10 would not buy again. Spend the extra on a Bunn
Thx I needed that I’m a kid who needed to make it for my moms on Christmas
Hope it was great!

Ty...ty...ty! The delay programming is what I NEEDED!
I have to get up early, and having coffee ready is a dream...!
Thank you, again!
👊🏻☕️
Oh God! Thanks so much! I was looking for this! Absolutely perfect and very good explanation! Thanks so so so much❤🎉!
Thank you. Your explanation of Set Delay has changed my mornings!
Sleep in an extra 3 minutes 😴

It's clutch.
Bought this in red, it is my second one. I think it is really nice, especially for the price. Worth every penny.
Agree!
My daughter just bought one , it's really nice 👍
i came to youtube looking for the tutorial i have the exact same model thank you
Thank you for your review. I just picked up the same product for under 35 dollars.
I'm excited to use it for the first time.
It's just a solid affordable coffee maker.

Not for the setting of the time, just push the delay button. I think....
These instructions were spot on and super helpful! Thanks so much!😀
Hey, I need to know this so when u turn it on its just already regular? Sorry I am a 13 year hold who is confused on how to work it but this video did help a little, please get back to this if u can
Yes, just regular. Careful, buddy.
@@RandomReviewsHowTos alright thank you!

Thank you, can’t wait to have a cup in the morning😊
This tutorial was very helpful! I got a Mr Coffee machine this Christmas from my parents, and had no clue how to use it. Only question I have is how to turn on the “brew later” option?
You have to set your clock first, then set the timer time. Hit brew later and make sure your water and grounds are ready!
Tap the, "Select" (On/off) Button.
The "Delay" light will stay on, and it will brew at the set time.
I have a wire mesh basket that replaces the paper filter. The ultimate accessory for this coffee maker.
Thanks a lot to show me how it’s done.
Excellent video. Very simple.
Glad you liked it

What if you don't finish the pot of coffee do you have to start the process over to heat it up

🤷♂️
Thank you so much for this tutorial!
You are so welcome!
perfect illustration
great , the only thing i would do different is put the water in first then the coffee basket , thanks
It's a tight fit for the pour, I agree.
Thank you very much for the great video straight to the point
Do you know how to troubleshoot this model? When we plug it in, it starts up immediately but the buttons aren’t lighting up and we have to unplug it to shut it off.
Thanks alot..I was so confused about this maker
What do you mean by “alot?”
My concern with this is the small spout. It needs to have a wider drip to saturate the grounds better.
I can tell you that the coffee doesn't drain out of the basket fast so it sits and absorbs into the grounds. It's really easy to have the coffee come out too strong if you don't measure correctly. I see your point though.
I have a filter thing that supposed to let me know when I’ve used it for 30 days so I can change something. I’ve got no idea what to do with it. I lost the instruction booklet before I could fully read it. Any help with that?
I'm not sure what you are referring to
Does your strong brew light go off after your coffee has finished brewing? I just got this model and mine goes off right after it beeps when it's finished. It wouldn't concern me if it wasn't weak coffee. I had an older Mr. Coffee maker and I use the same amount of water and coffee but the new coffee maker's coffee is weaker.

Yes, the light goes off. I'd try adding more grounds? Could be a bad batch? Could be defective. Trade it in.
What if I want to reheat my coffee dose it just start head when I turn it on
Thank you mr review person, for the wonderful review on mr coffee drip coffee making coffee coffee machine 💀
You're welcome miss comment person!
This machine keeps the coffe warm?
Yes
Do you leave it on overnight when using set delay?
You are awesome butter help than the manufacturer 😊
Love to be able to make a pot or use a K Cup with one machine and that it has a reservoir.
Thanks for it!
No problem!
I just bought one today and it will not turn on. Even the time is off idk if it doesnt Work or idk how to turn it on, can you help pls
Take it back. Might be defective
Thank you! Really good video.
Good video
Glad you enjoyed
All the lights went out. Coffee maker still works.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

There could be an issue with the maker itself. If you put too many grounds in, that could overflow the basket.
i got the same thing as yours! thank you 😃
THE best! TY🎉
thank you that wasvery helpful
How about not working after a power outage
First time I used the coffee maker the water didn’t leave the damn grounds basket- been afraid to go near the darn thing
Did you only have 1 filter? Try less grounds. 10 T. Scoops for 12 cups is my ratio.
Very helpful
I enjoyed this 👍
Good stuff
I just purchased one and it drips water everywhere. Am I doing something wrong?
Make sure the pot is pushed in under the spring of the grounds holder thing. If thay spring isn't depressed it will not drip into pot
Just bought one and leaks from the bottom left side hole on the bottom of the maker any ideas?
Return that guy. Defective.
what it means freshness timer
Thank you so much
Thanks brother
Welcome
Genial muchas gracias
a pinch or two of salt to dry grounds will cut down on bitterness
Great vid man, you should make more
Nice
Thanks
Anyone know how to turn the burner back on to reheat the coffee?
Just hit the brew button again. It will stay on for another 2 hrs.
thank you
I love mine but it turns off as soon as the coffee made so it's cold when I get it
Take it back!
Thank u! ☕
☕
Just bought mine. No manual. Called mr coffee. One on the way.
The manual is super helpful until you basically memorize how everything works and measurements. One thing I will say about the coffee measurements is that Tablespoons to water ratio is highly dependent on the beans and whether you hit strong or regular. We typically back off the beans a little because it gets bitter. Enjoy!
Thank youuuu!!!!!
No problem!
6 cups of water & slightly more than 5T of coffee 5:18
It's all relative! I eyeball all of it anymore I've made so many cups!
I can't stand that the clock is not lit up. You can't see what time it is unless you're standing right next to it. Sucks!!
Agree
Mine lasted 3 weeks. The steam from the coffee is too much for the lcd display and it's shorted out. 10/10 would not buy again. Spend the extra on a Bunn
Just got mine at Olies for $19.99
I burnt myself twice trying to lift up the lid 🤣🤣
Let me go thu it. Before I get a hammer 🔨 to it lol. You put your time first . Then set delay then press select twice . 😢 Not working yet
My Mr coffee time won’t change. Just stays on he same time that I program
Might want to replace it
Next time could you please add how to clean, thank you…
Great idea!
Im so confused
How can I help?
40$? More like 8-12$
My god... really you drink that?!?! Is not coffe... is dirty water...
Yes, yes I do. ☕️
Please invest in a tripod, this makes me dizzy to watch
?
Thank you sooo much, my mom gave me one sooo I am learning how to use it lol.
Enjoy
