The YouBrew by Breville
For a family full of coffee-lovers, making an entire pot ofbrblack gold can be a tricky proposition. Between brew strength and flavor, preferencesbrcan be all over the place. In the past, we have been forced to resort tobrroutinely adding water to batches too potent for the tongue, all in the name ofbrkeeping the peace. But with Breville's new YouBrew, each cup, travel mug andbrcarafe can be finely tuned to the drinker's preference. It allows users tobrtailor individual brewing by strength and flavor, all while ensuring the rightbrtaste every time with beans fresh-ground to the optimal size for each cup. $279,brBrevilleUSA.com
