I am moving out of state in a year and will be 500 miles from Tim Hortons. When I use their grounds in a normal coffee maker (not this one), it never tastes like Tim Hortons. If you bought a cup of Tim Hortons from their restaurant, then made one with your machine and did a blind taste test. Would you be able to tell a difference? Before I spend $115 on this, I want to be sure this is going to make coffee that tastes the same as Tim's.
@billm0066 I find the Tims coffee in the can never tastes like the real tim hortons however.... I've been using Maxwell house original roast and find it's really close.... I use a level 1/3 cup to a full pot of water.... The tims coffee comes very close to the same taste however the Tims brand coffee costs a lot more than the maxwell house. I find this coffee maker to be an all round better machine than some of the cheaper ones I've bought. I use the fine ground coffee.
I have one of these . . . unfortunately it started leaking. I'm pretty sure it's a seal that is cracked or worn out. It starts dripping water as soon as you start pouring it into the water well. It did make coffee quite fast when we first got it, but it's a good 7-10 minutes now if we make a full pot
Hey - when I pour the water in- it just goes straight through. Do a demonstration on the thing works. We can't figure it out. Do you pour two pots through or one??
@iggyshwartz it shouldn't pour straight through... the lid has a switch that prevents it from going into the carafe unless the lid is closed. when you first use it you're supposed to put 1 pot in, then add anther, slide the lid closed and turn it on. once that pot of water is through the reservoir is full and ready to make a pot of coffee after it heats up (approx 15 mins) you may have a defective one
@iggyshwartz How old is your machine?. My Tim hortons machine does the same thing, Mine is 4 years old, and has been used every day. It slowly started going straight through 3 months ago, and got worse. I haven't taken it apart yet, but I think it has a seal that stops the water going through, untill the lid is closed. The seal must be gone or sticking.
Thanks! I've been searching review everywhere. I'm going to get me one if these tonight. I might do a YouTube review too. Also my goal is to make the perfect double double.
@TYEZ I think you'll be very pleased with it. Read the instructions though.... there is a few things you need to do before you start to use it. Enjoy and thanks for watching =]
YES!!! THAT IS THE BEST COFFEE MAKER!!!! I AM GOING TO GO POUR MYSELF A CUP NOW!!! \M/

Do you ever buy their whole beans and grind them, or just use their fine grind?

@bmeyer44 The girl at Tim Horton's said you can buy them there. She said sometimes they do not have them in stock and have to order one.
