For some time now I've been passively seeking a coffee maker. Ironically, the combination I'm looking for in a maker seems not to exist, though it is in fact ideal...
Essentially I'm looking for a coffee maker that can both
grind the coffee automatically, and when it brews it goes into a
thermos style pot, as apposed to a glass pot with a heater on the bottom. The primary reason for this is that the heater element, while maintaining heat, effects the coffee negatively, often burning when left for any length of time. A Thermos style pot, on the other hand, can maintain the heat for a very long time as well, but eliminates any possibility of the coffee burning...
It's actually somewhat amazing to me that the thermos design is often seen as a lower quality feature... But then again, I still can't understand why anybody would buy pre-ground coffee at the same time. Yet more often then not, I tend to have a harder time to find whole bean coffee in your average store than ground...
At any rate, if any of you out there happen to find or know of a coffee maker with both a grinder and a thermos pot, please post a comment pointing me in the right direction. I would greatly appreciate it...

Of course, due to the irony of my life, if I hadn't made this post in the first place, I would have never found it otherwise...
