Just got it today. It grinds the beans and uses a carafe - I made my second pot three hours ago and it's still steaming hot and fresh. Has a charcoal water filter built in and a permanent filter for the grounds. This thing rocks! It's also quiet when it grinds. I'm so wired.
I'm a coffee junkie. I'm drinking Costa Rican Peaberry right now..
