Great for areas that cannot provide a direct water supply, the Bloomfield coffee maker operates with a pour-over feature, meaning water for the brewing process has to be manually added to the reservoir. It has a single brew dispenser and two warming plates, with one under the dispenser and one on top of the unit, and these warming plates are porcelain enameled without exposed screwheads. This setup prevents them from scraping and scuffing decanters.
