## Description

From the manufacturer The Optima Timer: Clear, Clean and Convenient A Beautifully Transparent, User-Friendly Filter Coffee Machine The programmable Optima Timer filters piping-hot, aromatic coffee into a clear, strong borosilicate glass jug. With its smooth surfaces, anti-drip design, removable water tank and calc-level warning signal to support descaling, you can reasonably safeguard the clean integrity of this beautiful coffee machine. The convenient timer-controlled brewing feature ensures timely arrival of up to eight large cups, indicated by clear marking indicators on the transparent water tank. The stainless steel of the filter and jug handle contrasts remarkably with the smooth, black main surfaces of the apparatus, as well as with its LED timer screen and with the transparency of its strong jug and double-walled, removable water tank. This refined German design allows a space-efficient yet potent accessory that will spruce up your kitchen.

That is what the Melitta Optima Timer coffee filter machine does. Timer-controlled brewing means you can programme the machine to start brewing your morning coffee before you have awoken. It functions like an alarm clock, and its drip-stop filter ensures no mess and no waste.

Review: If you want a decent budget coffee maker, this is your sign to get Melitta - If anyone is absolutely up their own wit’s end with efficiency, order and punctuality, it's those Germans. I love them. Equally, I love Melitta coffee makers. Simple, efficient, nice coffee, no issues. This is the third coffee maker I got from Melitta in probably 20 years. They last a long time. I drink a lot of coffee. 10/10 for simplicity and perfection.
Review: Makes great tasting coffee / keeps it hot - Great drip coffee maker — and a very good price. Finally a coffee maker in the UK that brews drip /filter style coffee at the correct temperature so the taste is really good. And the timer to keep the carafe hot is easily adjustable for between 30-120 minutes so your coffee stays hot! The carafe is a bit smaller than full size makers — and this uses number 2 size filters — but it is great for 4 large mugs of coffee. Looks nice and has a small footprint — easily fits under your upper cupboards. Much better than the no name brands makers I tried. So just buy this one if you want your coffee to taste like it does in a restaurant and not thin and watery.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good coffee machine, works well.
*by D***T on 30 December 2016*

Makes a lovely cup of coffee, and is easy and clean to use. Some people seem confused about how long it'll keep the pot warm for. I believe it's 30 minutes by default, but there's an option to change that. I have it set to 90 minutes, and it works just fine. I've knocked a star off for two reasons - one, the device has a very useful 'no drip' feature that cuts the flow of liquid into the pot off when you remove it. But even if left until it looks like all the coffee has passed into the pot, there can often be a drip on to the hot plate when you take the pot out. It's hardly the end of the world to give it a quick wipe, but it means the feature isn't quite working as it should. And two, the (102 size) filters can be a bit tricky to get hold of, at least here in the UK. I haven't been able to find them in most of the supermarkets I've been to, for example. You can either buy more standard sizes and tear a bit off, or I'd recommend finding an online supplier and buying a load of them. Shop around a bit for prices. Those two slight niggles aside, I think it's a great machine, and would happily recommend it.
