Weirfan Im far from a coffee snob but do enjoy a cup every morning
I am also far from being a coffee snob. I have never been to Starbucks. Some grocery brands such as Folgers and Maxwell House suck. But, our Krogers "Lite" 50% decaf suits us both just fine. If is drink more than one 32 oz. mug or not do a reduced caf I get a caffein buzz which I don't like.
I watched a Cuisinart video and it showed how to clean it with 1/3 vinegar, 2/3 water when directed to buy the clean light.
The Keurig website is not very informative. It says nothing about programability or auto shut off. The search so far indicates Cuisinart has everything I am looking for. They also offer a charcoal filter and ability to set the turn off time up to 4 hours.
