Well, Sh*t.
My coffeemaker crapped out this morning. I set it up as I normally do, hit the "on" button, and noticed it started making the gurgling sound that it normally makes at the very end of the brew cycle, at the beginning. Uh oh. When it was done brewing, I poured my cup, and it was about half full. The reservoir was empty. Apparently most of the water turned to steam instead of dripping through to the pot. I tried brewing another pot, and it was even worse. I just cleaned the thing a couple of weeks ago, and it's been working fine in the meantime, so I don't think that's the issue. Looks like a trip to Bed, Bath, and Beyond is in order. Luckily I save all those 20% off coupons they send me. I think I'm going to invest in a nice Cuisinart coffeemaker with a thermal carafe instead of a class coffeepot. Better for keeping the coffee from burning in the pot, which sometimes happens when I hit "snooze" one too many times in the morning.
