Performance
Oh you definitely won’t be disappointed by the Bonavita’s brewing process. Thanks to that pretty powerful 1400-watt heater under the hood, it manages to quickly heat the water to that sacred 200F in a jiffy. 6 minutes later and you have a whole 8-cup carafe to treat yourself. And it just can’t be emphasized enough how easy this machine is to operate. If you’d beam it 50 years back, everyone would still be able to get a hang of it in minutes.
The lack of modern controls and gadgetry might be a bit of a let-down at first, but the longer you live with this coffee maker, you get to realize just how much you don’t need all those buttons. But thankfully, for all of us that don’t own fire insurance, there is an auto shut-off feature that kicks in 15 minutes after brewing has stopped.
The stainless steel carafe does a brilliant job at keeping that java piping-hot. 4 hours later, and you’ll still be able to sip on brew that is on the verge of scalding. This model obviously doesn’t have a warming plate, but if that feature really tickles your fancy, you could opt for the one with the glass carafe instead.
Admittedly, the glass carafe version has a greater sense of elegance than its stainless steel counterpart, but like all coffee machines with warming plates, risks burning your joe. The 155W-warmer automatically shuts off after 2 hours; plenty of time to have guzzled through your caffeine fix.
It might seem trivial, but the one aspect of the Bonavita that sparks the most joy has to be the ease in pouring. We’ve all gone to pour out that morning cup only to end up with hot coffee all over the floor and all in your new shoes; complete mood killer!
Lucky for your expensive leather, the BV1900 sports a trigger lid that fits perfectly, which not only makes for effortless serving, but keeps the coffee hotter for longer.

Verdict
The Bonavita BV 1900TS 8 Cup Carafe Coffee Brewer takes a completely different route than most other modern brewers. Instead of an eye-catching user interface with fancy buttons, it sports a lone switch.

So if you want flash, this isn’t it. But if you want a machine that simply works like a dream, then you just hit the jackpot with this Bonavita coffee brewer.
