Hamilton Beach 49980A 2-Way Programmable Coffee Maker – Dual Brewing System for Single Serve and Full Pot
Experience ultimate brewing flexibility with the Hamilton Beach 49980A 2-Way Programmable Coffee Maker. This versatile dual coffee maker lets you brew up to 14 ounces into a cup or travel mug on one side, or brew a full 12-cup glass carafe on the other, all using your favorite ground coffee. Perfect for coffee lovers who despise long café lines or need an affordable, low-maintenance solution that can brew basic or premium roast coffee in a fraction of the time and cost of the coffeehouse.
The single-serve side features simple scoop-and-brew convenience using loose ground coffee with the included mesh scoop, making it easy to measure and fill. This eco-friendly approach means less waste since the coffee maker doesn’t use K-Cup pods, so there’s less to buy and throw away. When you want a full pot, the carafe side brews up to 12 cups with ground coffee and gives you the option to program your coffee up to 24 hours in advance for wake-up ready coffee.
Choose your preferred brew strength with two options: regular for standard medium-grind coffee, or bold for decaf, finer grind, or premium roast brands for richer flavor. The AutoPause and Pour feature lets you enjoy a quick cup while your coffee is still brewing, so there’s no need to wait for the full pot. Each brewer has its own easy-fill water reservoir that features a water window, so you always know how much water is on each side.
For peace of mind, the coffee maker turns off automatically after two hours, eliminating worries about whether you turned it off when leaving home. The single-serve side features a multilevel cup rest to fit different cup and mug sizes, making it compatible with everything from short cups to tall travel mugs. The machine measures 13.9 inches high by 12.23 inches wide by 11.08 inches deep and operates at 950 watts.
Ideal for households with varying coffee needs, busy professionals who need quick single servings during the week and full pots on weekends, or small offices serving multiple people throughout the day. The Hamilton Beach 49980A combines affordability, functionality, and convenience in one space-saving design. Note that this coffee maker is not compatible with K-Cup pods or capsules but works with loose ground coffee and disk-shaped soft pods.
