Editorial Review: Product Description: Zojirushi Fresh Brew Coffee Maker EC-BD15 features a 1.5 liter stainless steel vacuum insulated carafe with excellent keep-warm performance for fresh tastingcoffee. Unlike other coffee makers with a burner that quickly bitters the taste of coffee, the Fresh Brew Stainless Steel Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker comes with a stainless steel thermal carafe that keeps the coffee hot for hours without altering the taste. It also features an electric timer clock module to set the coffee to complete brewing by the desired time. Amazon.com Review: Lots of folks dislike the burnt flavor that coffee gets when it sits in a glass pot over a heating element. To avoid this, coffee shops often brew right into large thermal pots to keep the coffee warm without it becoming overcooked. The Zojirushi Fresh Brew does that, too, but in home-sized batches. It looks great, too, with a glossy black body and stainless steel carafe and brew basket. To brew, lift the lid and swing the water outlet spout to one side while the filter is being loaded; the spout will return to its proper position when the lid is closed. A small red ball in the water gauge makes it extra simple to read. And an electronic clock module also serves as a timer that will start the brewer at a specified time. The carafe's lid is designed to be on during brewing, with a small cap to help keep the heat in after it's ready. The Fresh Brew also has a pause-and-serve function that stops the flow for 30 seconds while a cup of coffee is served. To clean the brewer unit, use a solution of white vinegar and water, following the instructions in the accompanying booklet. The unit is not immersible. The exterior can be wiped with a damp soft rag; do not use abrasives or scouring pads. The filter reservoir is removable; clean with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. The coffee brewer measures 15 by 12 by 9 inches (includes carafe handle when unit is completely assembled), and it uses #3 cone-shaped disposable paper filters. The Fresh Brew comes with a detailed instruction booklet. Zojirushi guarantees its products with a one-year limited warranty. --Garland Withers Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I also hit the dreaded shut-off 6-times-to-brew-one-pot problemThis coffee maker worked tolerably for 5 months. Now it shuts off several times when trying to brew a single pot of coffee. Dozens of reviews complain of the same problem. Avoid this coffee maker, Rating:  - Outstanding coffee makerI owned a Zojirushi EC-BD15 for about three years, making outstanding coffee every morning. After it stopped working properly, probably since I never cleaned it, I tried another, cheaper, coffee maker. I was so disappointed I ordered another Zojirushi and now enjoy my morning coffee again. Rating: - So far so good!I bought this coffee maker several months ago, although I was hesitant because it is made in Japan and had read some reviews about it overflowing. I have to say it makes the hottest & best tasting coffee I have ever made at home. Rating: - Expected better coffee makerI purchased because of the many positive reviews. However, I agree with those who are unhappy with the product. The coffee maker quit brewing coffee on the second day. It steamed and just died. The #4 filter basket holds too few grounds for a 10-cup unit, unless one likes weak coffee. I expected Japanese quality, not a cheaply made appliance from China. Lastly, the thermal carafe, because of its design, is incapable of keeping coffee hot. The promotion of this coffee maker is obviously misleading. Rating: - It's what I expectedAfter having done much research for a carafe type coffee maker and reading all sorts of reviews I decided to purchase this machine. I am very pleased with this machine. I like that the basket that holds the filter basket is insulated to help keep the coffee hot while brewing. And it also comes apart easily for cleaning. The coffee brews much hotter than my previous carafe style makers yet it isn't quite as hot as I prefer as I like it Dunkin Donuts hot, yet I'm fine with how hot it is. It helps if the ...
