My husband and I are different creatures when it come to coffee habits. He’s one of those who wakes up and immediately goes for the coffee maker. I prefer milk or juice in the morning. But by mid-day, there’s nothing better than a good cup of coffee. After lunch, once the kids are taking a nap, I stop for a few minutes of quiet time with my new favorite flavored coffee, Decaf French Vanilla Millstone® coffee. The flavor is rich and smooth all at the same time, and it pairs perfectly with whatever snack I chose to enjoy with it. Picking the right coffee is half the battle, but brewing the coffee in the right coffee maker is the other half of the battle. The Mr. Coffee® 10-cup Optimal Brew™ Thermal Coffee Maker has made itself at home on my kitchen counter for a week now. I just have one question for it– What did I ever do without you?
We’ve owned a few different coffee makers over the years, but this one is definitely the nicest drip coffee maker we have had.
This is probably very sad, but out of all the features on my new coffee maker, the cord keeper in the back of the machine is my favorite. I wish more kitchen counter appliances had internal cord storage.
I also appreciate the special cleaning cycle designed to eliminate calcium build-up. We have well water in our home, so we’ve had issues with our water and coffee makers in the past. And the fact that the Mr. Coffee® 10-cup Optimal Brew™ Thermal Coffee Maker brews 10 cups in less than 7 minutes means that my coffee is done before I even finish putting all the boys down for a nap. In the event that I finish first (which is highly unlikely), the coffee maker has a Pause n’ Serve feature that allows me to pour a cup of coffee before the end of the brewing cycle.
Hey, look at the time! I need to get my coffee brewing!
Brewing my new favorite premium Millstone® coffee in this coffee maker has taken my mid-day pick-me-up to the next level. After a few quiet moments, I’m ready to tackle the mounds of laundry and dishes that my little men have left behind.
Both Millstone® coffee and the Mr. Coffee® 10-cup Optimal Brew™ Thermal Coffee Maker can be purchased at Walmart. My little helper picked mine out for me!

This morning it’s at my desk with LOTS of flavored creamer. 😉
Great giveaway! I like my coffee with cream and sugar 🙂
Thanks for entering!
I like coffee pretty much any time of day. I like mine to cool down a bit too, so room temp coffee doesn’t bother me at all. I used to take a ton of creamer in it, but now I’m down on that amount 🙂 I am not particular on a brand of coffee, but I HAVE TO HAVE liquid International Delight creamer. Nothing compares to it 🙂
My husband likes that creamer, too!
I LOVE iced coffee! 🙂
coffee with creamer
Mmmmm…I love flavored coffees. French vanilla or caramel are my faves!
Those are both great varieties!
I would love to win this, I’m using a 4 Cup coffee maker now!
Good luck!
Looks like a great curl up and craft type day here and this just made it more tempting! Thank you for the opportunity!
Thank you for entering!
I enjoy mine in the morning – usually on the go! Thanks for such a great giveaway! I love that the coffee maker has a retractable cord!
I like my coffee with coconut milk, when I sit down to work in the morning! 😀 Thanks for hosting a great giveaway!
Thanks for entering!
I love Iced Coffee with milk and a little sugar free vanilla syrup!
I admit it. I’m totally addicted. I just can’t start the day without my coffee!
I like my coffee with a bit of real cream and sugar. I also love iced coffee.
I love flavored coffee. And especially lattes. But at home I use flavored coffee and creamers.
I’m a cream and sugar kind of girl. Recently my husband found a bananas foster creamer that is dreamy. It makes your coffee instantly turn into banana bread. Delish!
I bet my hubby would like that!
My pot is 20 years old, I could use a new one.
I take my coffee with extra cream. Yum!
Love that it stays hot in thermal pot!!! Then I can take my time instead of gulping it down before my maker turns off. I love it first thing in the morning.
Yes, that is definitely a plus!
I enjoy my coffee with soy milk
What a nice coffee maker! I like my coffee with a very small amount of vanilla creamer and a small amount of Truvia. 🙂
So nice with the thermal carafe and hideaway cord. I love that. Oh and I’m definately a first thing in the morning coffee girl. My favorite is hazelnut or french vanilla flavored mixed 1/2 & 1/2 with dark coffee and plenty of cream.
Great giveaway!
I like my coffee with half and half and sugar
I like vanilla flavored coffee
I’m trying to go black, but I like the International Delight Cinnabon flavoring too much :0
I love my coffe with cream and caramel.
Cream and sugar every am is a MUST!
I need a new coffee pot. I hope I win 🙂
I love my coffee with a lot of sugar (or a splash of irish cream) in it! Great giveaway, Melanie!
Slightly sweet and creamy, and every chance I get!
Love a freshly brewed cup with 1/2 & 1/2…ahhhh!
I don’t drink coffee, but I think I’m the only one I know who’s that weird. I guess if I do drink it, it’d be more like having coffee with my sugar. 🙂
I never was a coffee drinker until my 3rd baby came along. Now with even less sleep and hectic days, coffee is a MUST! I usually enjoy a cup after I drop my older kids off at school. Love the cord keeper feature! We have way too many appliances on our kitchen counter and so many mangled cords. Can’t stand the clutter!
After dropping the kids off at school I like a cup of black coffee while I read my blogs.
I like my coffee with a hazelnut flavored creamer.
What an awesome giveaway! I love my coffee hot with Coffeemate Vanilla Caramel Creamer.
With coffeemate and sugar.
I’ll take my coffee any way I can get it 😉 but I prefer it with just a touch of half and half
I like a good strong cup of coffee with Italian Sweet Creamer in the morning

I like my coffee with lots of flavored creamer.
I don’t care for coffee, but my husband likes sugar and cream. Our coffee maker shorted out so I’d love a new one for him!
I love it with cream and vanilla over ice!
I like my coffee dark roasted, nothing added. Thanks.

I like my coffee with just a little bit of cream. Hazelnut is my favorite coffee.
I enjoy a couple of cups of coffee each morning while I read emails. I like to add cream and stevia to a nice dark roast.
i love drinking my coffee black.
I love it with cream and sugar!
With peppermint patty creamer!
I’m a tea drinker, but my husband drinks it black with a shot of espresso in it (aka “red eye”).
I like coffee with lots of cream and sugar.
Black and in a pretty cup 🙂
Bold and Black, first thing in the morning, mid-day, and early evening. Definitely addicted. Best addiction ever.
WITH LOTS OF CREAM & SUSAR PLEASE. THANKS
I drink my coffee with International Delight Southern ButterPecan creamer.
I love my morning coffee with flavored creamers
I enjoy my coffee Black!
