Yeah I just pathetically boiled water in my Electric tea kettle and then slowly poured it into the coffee maker LOL. I have a camping percolator also. I just was not opening the correct cabinets first thing in the morning.

Slowly plays taps...
Our coffemakers seem to be in cahoots. Mine died and I happily replaced it with this:
I'm in love so take that old coffemaker, no one liked you anyway!

We use a home version BUNN coffee maker. Get them at Home Hardware in Canada when on sale for $150 and it's money well spent. We never use anything but RO water in it and even after 5 years we have a pot of fresh brew in under 3 minutes. Get one of those and you'll never go back to those $30 POS gurgling 20 min f'ers.
Even cheaper right from BUNN in the US or Canada for $120. This is the one we have.

What did that one set you back? Specify US or Can price please. I don't grok peso.
Wouldn't fit in our little coffee corner. The BUNN just has an inch clearance.
Cool looking rig tho.

Way too expensive! I paid $359.00 for my Moccamaster.
I bought this as well.
I have the Stainless Steel (matches my appliances) and black Barazza. I think the Barazza elevated the coffee more than the upgraded coffee maker. Although I'm pretty happy with both.

I checked out the link for it and it's basically a snazzier and much more expensive machine that does the exact same thing mine does. I think I like the drip cone on ours better tho. When I drop the lid where the water goes in it has a valve to let the water run into the holding tank which pushes the hot water out so no pump in it either. As the water starts going into the basket I swing it back and forth slowly a couple times and give it a good shake to get the grounds evenly wet and that seems to get better extraction tho it does a good job on it's own. A guy I worked for had the same machine but the basket wouldn't move side to side so if you made a part pot it didn't do so good.
Either way both machines are far superior to the sub $50 POS ones most people use. We don't grind beans very often but I like to so might invest in a grinder like you got.

My wife is a coffee fanatic. She switched to an espresso machine a couple years ago.
