Who's The Coffee Drinkers Here
 
I go through 3 or 4 pots a day of the 12 cup decanter and I'm tired a makin it. So now my next thought is to buy one of those big ole campfire type coffee pots and just leave it on the stove and in the winter it can sit on the cast iron heat stove I burn for heat. Problem is I've never used one a these things and they ain't cheap so if they suck I don't want to just waste my money. Were talkin about $90 for the big size one and $60 for the small one. Anybody been here, done that before.

Ya my kidney, "Singular" does. So if you need one don't look my way.

Although not quit this much doctors do recommend coffee for kidney problems cause it's one of the best things out there to keep them flushed out.

Why not just buy a bigger regular coffee pot?

Do you actually drink that much coffee or do you find yourself dumping 1/2 full cups of cold coffee?

Just asking....my dad is that way. I bought him one of those fancy $650 Bunn double brewing pots with the heaters on top at a restaurant supply store that sells trade ins for 115 bucks. Awesome machine...you can have two pots brewing and two pots heating at the same time.

I had one a them I kept in my office while I was still in the service, they make em right here in my home town but way out of my price range to buy one. I also tried the 30 cup percolators but they always seem to burn the coffee and make it bitter. I hate gas station coffee because of the same thing.

If it get's cold on me I just throw the cup in microwave and it fixes that right up. I used to be bad about that with cigarettes back when I smoked though I'd go through a few packs a day but only smoke half of most of em before i had to be on the move again. But then again they $.85 a pack at the commissary back them to.

I never did like those big church potluck type pots either. Always seemed like the first couple cups were OK but then a bit later it was swamp swill.

I wouldn't ever pay 600 bucks for a coffee pot, but ran into this great deal at the restaurant store. Check around in your area or towns nearby for stores like that. They sell everything from spoons & forks up to the huge $48,000 freezers....they get trade ins and buyouts from places and resell used items cheap. It was $115.08 with tax, found the receipt :D

It's an older model...not sure if they make it anymore. Has two brewers side by side with two warmers on top and a little red hot water spigot in the middle for hot cider, cocoa, etc.

Kinda cool. Works great.

When it's ready you just send it in here to Bunn and they re-condition any makers they have ever made. Part of why they cost so much.

The Bunn family here in town are some of the richest folks around. They own a working cowboy ranch here that brings in horses and cowboys from all over the world for training and if they still have them used to raise longhorns over several thousand acres. Just a little trivia there.

Maybe you could buy two more small automatic coffe makers '''load them all at once in the morning then turn em on through out the day.

I go through a thermos of coffee just about every day at work. Only way to get through work.
