My husband and I love our coffee (even though we do try to stick to 1-2 cups a day). After owning many coffeemakers over the years, we have found one that we plan on sticking to – Hamilton Beach’s BrewStation 12 Cup Coffeemaker. You can make anything from 1 cup of coffee to 12 cups so easily! You just press the bar to dispense your java when you’re ready to. I’m going to tell you how it works for my family and I’ve got a great giveaway at the end of this post.

My husband is not a fan of a single serve coffeemakers and prefers a drip coffee machine. I’m a little more easygoing, but there just must be coffee. So we found Hamilton Beach’s BrewStation line a few years ago and are very happy. After a little incident with a blown out outlet (our building’s wiring), we needed to replace the BrewStation and we knew exactly what we wanted, another BrewStation. Hamilton Beach graciously provided a sample of the newest version of the BrewStation so we could try it out and see if it was better than the one we previously had. They’ve upgraded it over the one we had and we love this version even more! Every single product we have from Hamilton Beach always works well and we know this is a brand we trust. I think you will love Hamilton Beach’s BrewStation 12 Cup Coffeemaker just as much as we do.

To Use the Hamilton Beach BrewStation 12 Cup Coffeemaker

It’s so simple to use – take out the removable water reservoir and fill how many cups of coffee you want (in 8 oz servings), then open the top part (which is also removable) and put your filter in. Then add your grounds. Turn on the BrewStation and press a button to get your coffee (choose from regular, bold, or 1-4 cups). You can even set it to turn on in the morning! I like that you can use the BOLD setting to get a stronger brew or use the iced coffee setting to make my fave, iced coffee.
With no carafe, you can keep things – no pouring or breaking a glass carafe (I’ve broken several). Also, no burnt coffee flavor. And the best thing? It’s around $54 for this. Score!

Iced Coffee Setting

For the iced coffee setting (which is pretty smart) you only put 6 cups of water in the removable water reservoir, then fill the coffee tank with ice, then place filter in the brew basket (in either a paper filter or a reusable coffee filter). Then add up to 12 scoops of coffee (if you are using 6 cups of water). The filter basket should not touch the ice in the tank. Select Iced Coffee, turn on warming settings to zero. Fill your cup full of ice and then add your newly made iced coffee to your cup. Then thank your coffeemaker for making you be able to function properly.

Features:

  • 12 cup dispensing coffeemaker
  • No Carafe needed- 12 cup dispenses coffee without a carafe
  • The removable water reservoir makes filling easy
  • Brews a full 12 cups and dispenses one fresh cup at a time
  • Enclosed brewing system with internal heater keeps coffee hot and fresh for up to 4 hours

    COFFEE CREAMER BUT I AM THINKING OF ADDING A DIFFERENT BRAND OF COFFEE CREAMER.

  9. Sarah Cool says

    I add heavy cream and sugar free torani syrups, hazelnut is my favorite.

  25. Donna says

    I add sweetener and flavored creamer. I’ll sometimes add spices or cocoa too.

  26. stephanie baker says

    I love checking out the seasonal flavors of creamers when i’m at the store. Typically I will have 2 or 3 different options in my fridge, usually something seasonal (like pumpkin spice or peppermint mocha) or my go-to of French vanilla. That usually makes it sweet enough that I don’t add sugar, but sometimes I’ll mix it with a syrup like caramel. And I still like my coffee with a bold flavor, so not too much creamer or it takes away from the coffee flavor.

    Great suggestions here, thank you!

  27. Aaron B says

    I usually add milk and sweetener, but occasionally, I add flavored creamer.

  28. Nancy E Loring says

    Nothing because that would take to much time and when I go for my cup of coffee I want to drink it right away.

  30. Christy Leonard says

    I add sugar and creamer to my coffee. I like to try different types of creamer. Currently I’m trying a fruity Pebbles creamer. Its amazing! tastes just like fruity Pebbles.

  33. Donna says

    I add flavored creamer and sweetener. I sometimes add spices for extra flavor.

  42. Donna says

    I add some creamer and sweetener. In the fall, I like to add pumpkin spice to it.

  48. Donna says

    I add flavored creamer and sweetener. I sometimes add a dash of cinnamon.

  57. Donna says

    I usully add flavored creamer and sweetener. I especially love caramel creamer!

  74. RACHEL Schichtl says

    I like the International Delight flavors- they have an Almond Joy one that’s great.

  80. Janice Wright says

    For hot coffee, I add half and half only. For iced coffee, it has to be half and half and sugar.

  87. Catherine Buell says

    I like my coffee with a heavy splash of half and half. I’ve done away with sugar in my coffee. It took time, but now I only like it with the half and half.

  94. Steven W says

    I don’t add anything to my coffee usually, but when I do, I add French Vanilla creamer

  97. Meredith Brooks says

    I really like to add some oat milk creamer to my coffee. It’s so good!

  108. Derek Miller says

    I add sugar…a lot or none at all. Also, just a sprinkle of cinnamon if I am feeling festive.

  121. athena graeme says

    I love adding sugar and cream. On special days I like flavored creamers.

  124. Toni Conerly says

    I like my coffee sweet and not too light. I use real sugar and hazelnut creamer. I don’t care for flavored coffee, but love my flavored creamers!

  125. Jeannie says

    I love Coffeemate – regualr – or, if I run out, half and half – I really like that creamy flavor with a sprinkle of Splenda.

  126. Kim Henrichs says

    I add milk for cold coffee and cream for hot coffee and some collagen.

  128. Kari B says

    I normally drink my coffee black, but sometimes, I’ll add a little bit of cinnamon.

  136. Sarah says

    I use almond milk, agave, chocolate syrup and sometimes peanut butter for iced coffee.

  139. Elizabeth TierceMiller says

    I love adding french vanilla creamer and caramel drizzle to coffee.

  140. Jill B. says

    I love coffee, but I like to drink it strong in flavor but sweet so I add cream and sugar. I even try to add real cream as often as I can because it add so much flavor to the dark roasts that I prefer.

  143. Takako says

    What do you add to your coffee?
    Usually a lot of milk and sweetener (usually Splenda). I used to be more a “would you like some coffee in your milk?” person (LOL) I have changed the coffee-to-milk proportion closer to 3:1, sometimes maybe even 5:1. Mostly, though, I’m more a tea person. 🙂
