The Mr. Coffee Home Café Coffee Pod Brewer Review

The Home Café has been a force to be reckoned with this year in the Single Serve Coffee arena. I don't think as much advertising for any of the other entries - maybe Senseo, but it's also been a force to be reckoned with when you consider they will not only have a Black&Decker version, but also a Mr. Coffee and a Braun.

We were anxious to get our hands on the Mr. Coffee version of the product, as the Black&Decker Home Café had turned out to be a little less than stellar in the engineering department (you can read our review here). We had experienced a lack of quality overall with how the coffee maker shuts, the pod holders being plastic - actually - PLASTIC PLASTIC PLASTIC! Our hopes for the entire Home Café line have been pinned to the back of this Mr. Coffee version - would it make the grade?

Senseo $20 Rebate for Holiday Shopping

If you really want to buy a Senseo for your loved one (and we suggest we do) - Phillips is offering a $20 dollar rebate on their $70 dollar machine - roughly making it $50 or less at most online stores. In our opinion - that's a total steal.

Imagine Christmas morning, you come down to the Christmas tree - and someone you love (and live with) gets a Senseo. Next for breakfast you will then get the most perfect cup of coffee ever. Do it. Buy the Senseo. You will not be sorry. OH! Imagine Senseo Single Serve Coffee with your New Years hangover....oooh!

VIP Brushed Aluminum Senseo Coming to Netherlands in November

Can you say beautiful? Wow. ANd supposedly improved? How do you impreove on Senseo? Well brushed aluminum is a start, and look at the controls? Very nice. Here's to hoping this comes out in the states as well.

Translated from Dutch:

"These newest Senseo® are not only a hoogstandje in the field of design, also the apparatus geruislozer is and qualitatively improves then the earlier versions.

With its very tight lines and thanks to the use of high-quality brushed aluminium a powerful and unique irradiation has these new Senseo®!

AS FROM!!! DELIVERABLE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER

Home Café Coming Soon in Red!!!

Wow. It's been Home Café news as of late, but you have to hand it to P&G, Black&Decker, and Mr. Coffee-they are pulling out all the stops to make Home Café a success. Currently they have the biggest variety of pod flavors for coffee, and now they are launching a red Home Café! We can't wait to get our eyes on this machine and it's nice to know that like the red Melitta we reviewed earlier & the red Senseo in Europe, maybe all the single serve coffee machines will come in red someday!

Extra Large Reservoir for Senseo Review

Okay - we'll admit it. There's not a great deal to review when it comes to an Extra Large Reservoir for any coffee maker, except the fact that this accessory makes sense. Buy it. If you own a Senseo and enjoy the coffee, I'm pretty sure by now you are tired of refilling it. The Extra Large Reservoir holds 10 cups of water, and fit the Senseo perfectly. I really can't think of anything else to add even water - because my reservoir is only half full after brewing 5 cups of delicious dark roast Senseo coffee.

Tassimo T-Discs Very Interesting

It appears that many of the T-Discs for the Tassimo system from Kraft, will be found the dairy aisle of your local grocer. They will contain milk and other perishable items inside the T-Disc. Wow. This should make marketing them very interesting in US supermarkets - as there are no coffee products in the dairy aisle minus creamer.

"The ingenious TASSIMO Disc (T-DISC) is designed to work exclusively with the TASSIMO machine. Each T-DISC contains a precisely measured amount of coffee, tea, chocolate or concentrated milk, and is sealed to protect the precious flavors inside."
