The devil is in the details
Whenever I use a Braun product, I feel like Dieter Rams himself is personally performing the task that the machine was designed for. That's why using this coffee maker is so disappointing. The coffee it makes is consistent and flavorful when the brewer operates but all the actions you perform to start the process are afterthoughts to the aesthetics of the machine.Some specifics:1. The space to pour the water into is miniscule; you're groggy, the kitchen is probably dim, now you have to hit a target that's 3.5 square inches.2. Before you even pour the water in, you have to lift the lid. The designers detailed these tiny little indents on either side of the machine to "allow" you to lift the lid. The problem is that the tolerance in the construction in the hinge makes the lid shift to the side the exact amount of the indent so it's impossible to lift the lid without two hands or friction on the slender lid alone.3. Talking about lids, I make coffee every day and remove the carafe lid every single day to wash it. The part that engages it with the carafe is complicated, unintuitive and fragile. I will break it, it's just a matter of time. The need to have some kind of haptic response that it's snapped and locked into place makes this an unnecessarily overdesigned part.4. Finally, who at this price range makes a v'amp'ire appliance anymore. The inability to turn the clock off (it's color is different from all of my other appliances) - or even the whole device off if you don't use the Auto On - seems quaint at this point. With all the other electronic features of this device, I wonder why you can't really turn it off without unplugging it.In all, I think I wasted my money. I realize these seem like trivial and insignificant issues but that's why I choose Braun over other appliances. I can get almost identical results for almost half the price. With this coffee maker, you're paying for a name and an aesthetic and that should be what disappoints Dieter the most.

5.0 out of 5 stars A modern take on the automatic drip brewer.
Reviewed in Canada on June 30, 2016
Although it's a little bit difficult to fathom, I've now learned that there are three models in the BrewSense line and confirmed that they are all absolutely identical to one another in operation and the *only* difference between these three machines is the exterior construction. As you step up in the models (and price) the amount of stainless steel used in the appliances increases from all plastic to pretty much all stainless steel. There are no additional features, it's all style. They are pretty up front about this, which is nice. If you have some extra money to spend, are planning on keeping the machine on the counter, and have a kitchen with all stainless appliances it might particularly be worth spending a bit more to get this all stainless model.

You might be thinking what I was thinking, what does Braun know about making kitchen appliances? I did some research and found that these appliances are manufactured by De'Longhi under license, so there is some pedigree behind the design of these that isn't related to Shavers. Braun's "brand styling" is very evident in the machine, being extremely modern and masculine in appearance. I actually think it looks better in person than it does in the manufacturer's product photos. This particular model is almost 100% stainless steel, including the top of the lid. Only the rear panel of the machine is plastic, from an exterior sense. How much is the stainless steel worth to you compared to the most inexpensive BrewSense? That's up to you, but I can say that this all stainless model is easily the nicest looking automatic drip coffee machine that I've ever had. If it wasn't for the glass carafe, it shares more of a design sense with expensive espresso machines than it does with your typical automatic drip brewer.

The large negative back-lit LCD screen on the machine is really only just for the clock and/or setting the automatic brew timer it doesn't really show any other information. I think it would have been neat if they integrated a progress bar or something to indicate when the cycle will complete or show some more tidbits of information like this but as it stands it's still a nice visual display and one can never have too many clocks around in the morning. The remainder of the feedback the machine gives you is in the form of small green LED lights or back-lit words located above the control panel to indicate when certain modes are selected etc. It's all very sleek and really appeals to my geek sense. Even the power button is back-lit in neon green and evokes thoughts of my computer equipment.

The carafe is nice enough, as far as carafes go, though really it's mostly standard fare stuff. It's glass, with a plastic lid and handle, with a stainless steel "band" around the bottom. It's fairly lightweight but doesn't feel like it'll shatter if you look at it the wrong way. The lid stays pretty well shut on it unless you want it open, even when you're pouring that last little bit out of it (I hate it when the lid swings open on you when pouring). The only thing is that the spout of the carafe is a little bit shallow so I do feel like I can't go nuts on the pour, but it's not really shallow enough to call it a "complaint". Still, if you're used to a different carafe take it easy. Being a glass carafe, obviously it's not a "thermal" one meaning it's not insulated so the machine does have a heated plate on the bottom and you can select the temperature it keeps it heated to (roughly, anyway). You can also configure how long the machine keeps the heater on after the cycle completes, the default being 2 hours, before it automatically turns off.

To test the speed I went ahead and timed an 8 cup cycle, thinking this is the "mid range" of how much coffee people might make with a machine like this on average. The cycle took about 7 minutes to complete 8 cups using regular cool tap water. This is no faster or slower than what I expect from a coffee machine but I thought it might be useful information.

There is a "1-4" button on the machine, and it's rather mysterious. The manual's only mention of this button is something along the lines of "Press the button to set the 1-4 cups setting, and the light will illuminate above it". I had to experiment to figure out what it does, exactly, though I had guessed what they are suggesting is that if you're only brewing 1 to 4 cups worth of coffee to use this setting. I eventually figured out through trial and error of doing a cycle of 4 cups using the "1-4" button, and a cycle of 4 cups without it, that what it does is slows down the brewing cycle by something around 50%. I guess this allows the machine to make the most of the coffee in the filter instead of just powering through it which matters less with larger amounts of water and thus longer saturated grinds, I could be wrong but it seems like the result comes out hotter than without it as well. Since the majority of time we make coffee we are indeed making 1 to 4 cups, I appreciate the thought.

One thing that has bugged me about some other coffee machines I've owned in the past is that after a brewing cycle that standing water can be left in the machine due to poor design, I don't like that because it can be unsanitary and lead to a lot of mineral deposit build up. This machine does an EXCELLENT job of clearing itself of all of the water you put in it as long as you allow it to finish the entire brewing cycle. Immediately following a cycle, I checked for water in the machine using a flashlight and this thing was bone dry except for a few droplets that probably condensed from the left over steam it really sucks the contents of the reservoir right out of it. I know it might seem like a silly thing to judge a coffee maker on, but with coffee makers all pretty much operating the same way these days it's the little things that make one stand out over others.

Operating the machine is easy, all the buttons are right on the front of the machine, and for the most part clearly indicate what they do. Setting the time and brew timer is no different than setting the time on any other piece of electronics with a clock so there isn't anything particularly brutal about setting up or using the machine. It does come with one carbon filter included (use of it is optional, but it's a nice touch) which seems to be the same size and shape of ones used on my espresso machine which are relatively inexpensive and easy to find and have become somewhat of a "standardized" item rather than something you'll have to get specific for this machine. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to, personally I feel that just filling the machine with water from your filtered water pitcher is probably just as good. Another nice bonus is the included reusable filter - there is nothing particularly special about the filter but if you don't already have one it does save you from buying one.

Okay, so the machine seems well made, is VERY (in my opinion) attractive, and isn't a bear to use for any reason. If you're still reading, good job, you've finally reached the part where I talk about whether or not it makes good coffee. The answer is, as you might have expected if you have any experience at all with owning more than one type of coffee machine, yes it does a fine job of it. These are simple machines, relatively speaking, and they all pretty much work similarly and except for the really bad ones all give you pretty similar results all other things being the same (quality of the water, beans, and grinding). I would rate this machine pretty much as good as I could rate an automatic coffee machine on the brew, based on my initial impressions. I'm a little bit of a coffee snob/addict, some days I can easily drink 3 or 4 large cups (and don't shy away from caffeine relatively late in the day either, being a bit of a night owl). I own french presses, drip brewers, espresso machines and heck I will even drink instant coffee if I'm really in a rush. I know my way around coffee, and I know when a coffee comes out bad, and this machine makes pretty good coffee for a machine of it's type.

Time will tell if the machine develops any leaks (my personal number one cause of coffee machine retirement) or has any quality problems down the line with just quitting on me but as far as things go right now after having put it through it's initial paces I think it's an awesome machine.

Reviewed in Canada on February 19, 2017
I didn't plan on spending this much on a coffee maker, and I'm sure there are cheaper makers that do just as good a job making coffee, but I think this model is worth the extra cash.

First, this thing is gorgeous. Braun has a way with design, and this coffee maker is no exception. The stainless steel looks high end, and all the parts fit well together. Everything feels solid. This is important to me; I don't want the product I'm using everyday to feel like it's going to come apart at any moment. I also don't mind paying a little more for something that is well-designed and aesthetically pleasing.

Another bonus is how quiet it is. I've used many coffee makers, from Keurigs to percolators to other drip machines, and this is the quietest coffee maker I have ever used. I actually questioned if it was working the first time because it was silent.

This machine also dispersed steam very well. It does not make the underside of your cabinets drip from steam. It dispersed it well, though it does seem to make the front of the machine "sweat" a little bit (see attached photo). I'd much rather than than wet cabinets!

The coffee tastes great. I have two French presses, an old school percolator, and a Keurig and this makes the best cup of coffee, maybe tied with the press. Coffee connoisseurs will cringe, but it's good enough for us, and good enough that I never want to drink Keurig coffee ever again.

The speed is so-so. It's pretty fast for what it's doing, but there are faster machines on the market. Not something I really care about though, since they're all within 1-2mins of each other for a full pot.

This maker is programmable and its dead easy to set. Waking up to the smell of fresh-brewed coffee is one of life's little beauties. You can also program the shutoff for the heating plate.

You can make a small batch or a full pot - from 1 to 12 "cups." As with all coffee products, you have to realize that cups do not mean mugs of coffee. For my wife and I, it takes about 4 cups to fill our Contigo insulated mugs. And a little less for a regular mug of coffee. So for 4 people, we make a full pot (12 cups) and there's usually about 1 cup left over. So I guess 5 people a pot!

Another great feature is the no-drip pour. It stops the drip process when you take the carafe out! This is huge; many makers don't offer this. You can fill your cup while it's in the middle of making a pot.

The Braun maker is very easy to clean. The gold permanent filter comes out easily with its little handle and washes easily as well. The filter holder and drip mechanism slides out with a pop and is easy to clean. The carafe has a removable lid so it's easy to clean as well! All the parts feel like they will stand up for a long time if taken care of.

You can set the temperature of the warming plate, and you can change the brew intensity as well. It also has a charcoal water filter, and a self-cleaning mode for descaling (though you need to buy the Des sling solution).

All in all, this is a great machine. It's at the top end of what I wanted to pay, but so far it's been worth it. A well-designed machine that feels built to last and is crammed with lots of useful features and thoughtful design decisions.
