Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Delonghi DC80TC 8-Cup Automatic Drip Coffee Maker with Thermal Carafe
Customer Review: I Haven't Had 1 Problem BUT use paper towel folded filter
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a huge coffee drinker and this is another machine I put to daily use. I start off each morning with it because I want an entire pot of coffee that I can have sitting right next to me at my computer station. I drink the whole thing during the morning and it is nice and hot the entire time. Scalding, no, hot, yes. One trick I do with all coffeemakers is use a paper towel instead of a conventional filter. I fold the paper towel over on top and pat it down so that there is no way the top of the filter can intefere with the mechanics of the coffee maker. I used to have problems with these coffee machines until I started making my own filters with the folded over tops. I suspect that other people might improve their odds with coffee makers by doing the same. It is also cheaper than filters and takes about 10 seconds to do. This coffee maker overflowed on me once before I implemented my paper towel trick and then after that was perfect. I had the exact same experience with the cuisinart coffee machine for 2 commuter cups that I previously reviewed. I really think there is more of a problem with bad coffee filters than with bad coffee makers.
