Hamilton Beach 49980RG 12-Cup Coffee Maker (2-Way)
Brews single cups and full pots with separate reservoirs, eliminating flavor cross-contamination.
Hamilton Beach has built a reputation on straightforward, reliable appliances. The 49980RG 2-Way Coffee Maker stands out by solving a common household dilemma: the daily single cup versus the weekend pot. It’s a single machine that genuinely serves two distinct brewing styles without compromise.
On the carafe side, you get a full 12-cup programmable drip machine. Set the timer the night before and wake up to a full pot. The permanent filter is a simple, cost-saving touch. For your morning commute, the single-serve side uses a simple scoop system for ground coffee, brewing directly into a travel mug up to 14 ounces. The process is refreshingly manual—no proprietary pods or complex settings. Both sides feature auto shut-off, a non-negotiable for safety and peace of mind.
With over 50,000 customer ratings, its reliability is proven. The design is clean, with stainless accents that fit most kitchens. Just know the single-serve side requires your own ground coffee; it won’t accept pods. For a budget-friendly machine that cleanly handles two very different coffee routines, it’s a pragmatic and highly effective countertop solution.
