suppleasthewind Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I think I would have to run to the store and get another one immediately. I wouldn't make it through the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's time to stash a spare. :tongue_smilie:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen in PA Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 :confused: Wait, how were you able to come on here and post something coherent with no coffee in you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissad2 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I've been through no less than 3 coffee makers in the last year! I'm currently waiting for a great deal on a keurig before my current one poops out on me too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merry gardens Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 :confused: Wait, how were you able to come on here and post something coherent with no coffee in you? No, only the title used words. Poor thing could only manage to write with smilies in her post. This illustrates the importance of keeping a supply of chocolate covered espresso beans for emergencies.

Chris in VA Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Mine works, but I ran out of real coffee this am and had to mix in...decaf. Blech--as horrid as the color I just chose. I feel for you. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorMom Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Ok - emergency coffee method: Get a big mug, put a coffee filter on top of it. Fill with coffee. slowly pour the hot water over the coffee.... it won't be perfect - but it does work :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 So sorry. I do have a couple of different coffee makers, including a plastic cone for emergencies. However, NONE of my coffee makers works without coffee I realized! :lol: The coffee maker I have sitting on my countertop is the one I have had for about 6 years now and it works great, but it was pricey and makes espresso. I use it daily. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liza Lee Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 My pot seems to be working fine, but the maker is confused. I forget to put in the coffee. My 17yo got up and asked me why the coffeepot had water in it instead of coffee. Round two is nearly finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorMom Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 yeah - I've found the only method that works to make coffee when you're out of coffee is.... to go to Starbucks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amo_mea_filiis. Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 I just put my creamer in my travel cup and stopped at Turkey Hill on the way to ds's PT appt. I cleaned it out and tried a round 2, which also didn't work. I'll be getting another cheap one at walmart later. The coffee filter and hot water is something I have to try!

Less likely to end up with grounds in your coffee that way (and for some of us, less swearing :tongue_smilie:). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amo_mea_filiis. Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Picked up a 12 cup coffee make for $6.00 at walmart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarlaS Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Picked up a 12 cup coffee make for $6.00 at walmart! Probably the same one I have. It actually does not even have a name on it. It works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy22alyns Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Noooooo!!!! Disaster! :svengo: I'd probably run to WM and get one too. Glad you got it solved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laundrycrisis Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I am laughing because I have seven different methods to make coffee: 1. espresso maker 2. coffee pot (rarely used) 3. french press 4. Folgers bags 5. instant granules 6. can of Nescafé Café con Leche 7. single cup filter holder (put on mug and pour water through grounds) because I cannot stand the thought of a morning with no coffee due to broken equipment !!! I have BTDT, am still not over it, and will not be caught unprepared again ! :lol: Even if I have to boil water out on the gas grill, or just drink the Nescafé cold, there will be coffee !
