I gotta remember to turn the coffee machine off when the pot is empty!!

It could get permanently damaged, and then what, eh? Well anyway i'm having my first coffee of the year, it looked a little wrong, some of the cleaning fluid might not have all been washed out, but it tastes good. On Tuesday I go out for another...

We have a commercial coffee maker from the 1970s/1980s time period Still works like new.

If you ever watch the TV show Alice the they work at Mel's Dinner. They have the very same coffee maker has we do.

Nothing on it is automatic, Everything is manual and thats why it lasted so long. This thing has to be at the bare minimum 50 years old

Get one with an insulated pot that doesn't need a hot plate. You don't have to remember to shut it off as nothing is on after the coffee finishes brewing. Mine keeps the coffee hot for two hours, and since it's not evaporating like a pot on a hot plate, you don't get the super-concentrated "jamoe" later on.
