Big box stores

Big box stores will carry basic electric coffee machines that offer few frills, but fresh coffee. Some will even offer the ability to set a timer so that the coffee will brew at a specific time. These coffee machines are considered automatic drip coffee makers like the one invented by the Mr. Coffee company in 1972. The most common form of the coffee makers are the ones that have a glass coffee pot. The pot is usually made of Pryex or some other heat-safe glass.
