Mr. Coffee BVMC-FM1 20-Ounce Frappe Maker

Product Description

Go ahead, indulge. These thick, tasty drinks will perk you up, ravish your sweet tooth, and whip your taste buds into a frenzy. They can even be made with decaf for those who prefer the taste without the jitter. A Frappe is really any sort of icy, blended drink. It's usually made with coffee, but there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to the ingredients. A Frappe can be wildly imaginative, wonderfully exotic, thoroughly classic, or somewhere in between.


  • Frappe maker brews and blends at the touch of a button
  • Cross between a coffee machine and a blender
  • Removable brew basket; "pulse" button for control over consistency
  • 20-ounce dishwasher-safe blending jar; small footprint
  • Uses 4-cup basket coffee filters (not included)

This review is from: Mr. Coffee BVMC-FM1 20-Ounce Frappe Maker (Kitchen)
Customer Video Review Length:: 4:33 Mins

Many people buy this machine to save money from the expensive coffee houses.

I bought it because the nearest location I can buy a Frappe is 25 miles from home ...
I also bought it because I like coffee in the afternoon, and I could use decaf ...
And then there's the fact that I'm diabetic and need low carb choices ...

So for me, it not only saves money, but it makes the impossible possible.
I've been using the Gevalia Dark Chocolate Truffle Ground Coffee, Decaffeinated, 8-Ounce Packages (Pack of 3), with 1/2 cup water in the top. Then in the blender I add 2 cups of ice, 3 TBS low Carb chocolate syrup, Equal, and 1/4 cup nonfat milk.

Three minutes later I have a scrumptious frappe, fully approved by my doctor! Because of the low calorie count and the lack of... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Convenient combo machine, November 3, 2009
By 
Erica (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mr. Coffee BVMC-FM1 20-Ounce Frappe Maker (Kitchen)
This product doesn't do anything you couldn't do on your own with a blender and a coffee machine, but the combination of the two makes the frappe-making process much more convenient. In the few weeks I've owned it, I've found myself just making my own frappes instead of running to the local coffee shop. The accompanying recipe book offers some great ideas, including tea frappes. As a warning to those who don't keep paper coffee filters around the house, the package doesn't even include a sample filter, so you'll need to purchase four-cup size filters before you can try out the product.

The process is simple. Set up the coffee brewer by placing a filter, 3-6 scoops of ground coffee, and water in the machine. In the blending pitcher, add ice cubes and other ingredients (e.g. ice cream, milk, flavor syrup, alcohol, etc.). Turn it on, and the coffee (or tea) brews directly into the pitcher, which then automatically starts a pulsed blending cycle. There is a separate... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Item, Saves Time, November 13, 2009
This review is from: Mr. Coffee BVMC-FM1 20-Ounce Frappe Maker (Kitchen)
I recently purchased the Mr Coffee Frappe Maker after seeing an ad for it. I thought of the times I have had to stand in the long lines at the local coffee house, how many times they have made my Frappe wrong because they were in a rush to deal with the long lines and of course the cost they charge. I figured for $[...] it was worth a shot. The Frappe Maker gives you the control of strength of coffee or other goodies you may want in your drink, syrup, sugar, etc. The ad claims in delivers the product in 3 minutes and it does! I was personally delighted with the end product. It will have paid for itself after a mere 20 visits to the local coffee house. I am pleased with the ease of use and the convenience it provides. I can make myself a Frappe in my own home saving time and money, this is a great product for those that do not have a need to impress others by drinking coffee house Frappes. I anticipate many other copycat products following suit. Every so often a product comes... Read more

Bodum YoYo Personal Tea Set with Infuser and 12-Ounce Glass


Customer Rating :
Rating: 4.2

List Price : $40.00 Price : $25.96
Bodum YoYo Personal Tea Set with Infuser and 12-Ounce Glass

Product Description

Say goodbye to tea bags and enjoy your perfect cup of tea in style with the stainless steel YOYO tea strainer and PAVINA double wall glass. The PAVINA glass is made from mouth-blown, heat-resistant borosilicate glass which allows tea lovers to visually enjoy the rich colors their favorite teas offer. Freely swirling tea leaves will release their full potential, like in a Bodum tea pot but on a smaller scale. With a length of 11.7 cm (4.6 inch), it fits into all Bodum mugs. The lid is dual purpose. If put upside-down onto the strainer it keeps the water warm while the tea is brewing, if flipped after the brewing it can be used as a saucer for the tea infuser. The hole on top of the tea infuser allows for easy storage by just hanging it up. All parts are dishwasher safe.


  • Bodum's modern and beautiful tea set includes the YoYo strainer, a 12-ounce Pavina double-wall glass, and a lid
  • Designed to brew loose-leaf tea directly in the glass; double-wall glass keeps beverages hot yet stays cool to the touch
  • Measuring 4.6 inches long (11.7 cm), the tea strainer also fits with all Bodum double-wall mugs as well
  • Dual-purpose lid keeps the water warm while the tea's brewing and serves as saucer for infuser
  • A hole on top of the infuser allows for easy storage by hanging, and all parts are dishwasher safe

3.0 out of 5 stars Great infuser, but far more delicate than it feels., July 18, 2010

This review is from: Bodum YoYo Personal Tea Set with Infuser and 12-Ounce Glass (Kitchen)
Let me first say that I really did enjoy this product. The infuser is far easier to clean than the previous stainless steel infuser I had in the past. The glass feels quite sturdy, but this is where the problem arises. I had the set for a day before breaking it.

I was one of those people who read the reviews and said "There's no way I'll be clumsy enough to break this." Sure enough all it took was the handle of another mug tapping it slightly in the sink and the outer shell of the glass broke off.

Overall a very beautiful product, and I'll be using the infuser in other mugs for quite some time, but be very careful when washing the glass. Definitely not as strong as you'd expect for the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Tea Set (Glass + Infuser), July 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Bodum YoYo Personal Tea Set with Infuser and 12-Ounce Glass (Kitchen)
From what I can make out, this Bodum YoYo Double Wall Glass Personal Tea Set seems to be a combination of one of the 12-ounce glasses from the Bodum Pavina 12-Ounce Double-Wall Thermo Cooler/Beer Glass, Set of 2 and the Bodum New YoYo Stainless Steel Tea Infuser with Lid. If so, then that provides the option to buy replacements (or extra glasses) if needed. Also, it might be worthwhile to keep an eye on the prices of the individual items to see if it might be cheaper to make your own set. Anyway, this is a nice tea "set." Everything is well-made and is easily used and cleaned. I do have some quibbles with the set, though:

5.0 out of 5 stars Functional simplicity, September 24, 2008
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
Bodum's 12-ounce double wall glass is just what you need to keep your tea, or any hot beverage, HOT, without burning your fingers. The borosilicate glass is ultra smooth, seamless, and a pleasure to drink from. The stainless steel tea infuser is a snap to clean - just rinse under running water and wipe dry. The lid doubles as a handy drip catcher. The handblown construction is simple, elegant and visually stimulating, making your tea time a delight for all the senses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Coffee gizmo, simple, easy, fast clean up, cheap., July 28, 2009

This review is from: Melitta 64008 Red Ready Set Joe Filter Cone (Misc.)
I have been using one of these filter cones for a couple years at home and work. I recently bought a few extras and now take one with me (and my favorite brand of coffee) when I travel - it's a great upgrade from hotel coffee. I use the Melitta #2 unbleached filters and get excellent coffee. You just put ground coffee (drip grind) in the filter, add hot water (appx 195 to 205 degrees F), and in a minute you have a perfect cup of coffee. I've used a number of different methods and gizmos over the years, until I started using this, my favorite was the French Press method.

This is quicker, simpler, easier to clean, and you can take it with you. The coffee tastes great, clean, full, no off tastes. You can of course vary the strength (both the caffeine and flavor) by adding more or less coffee to the filter, and varying the temperature of the water. I find I get the best taste when I bring the water to a full boil then let it sit about a minute. When you're done you toss... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Ready Set Joe!, February 17, 2009
By 
This review is from: Melitta 64008 Red Ready Set Joe Filter Cone (Misc.)
This product is exactly what I've been looking for. The industrial strength coffee maker at work isn't used properly so I prefer to brew a fresh cup. Not a fan of the french press and graininess so tried this as an alternative. Works great! The strength of the coffee will depend on how much you put in the filter, so it will take some tries to get used it it. Awesome product!

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple Way to Make Good Coffee, March 14, 2010
By 
iQuack (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Melitta 64008 Red Ready Set Joe Filter Cone (Misc.)
Been using a one-cup coffee cone for decades, and I have a suggestion: Buy #4 filters instead of the #2 recommended ones. The smaller, #2 filters aren't tall enough, so it's too easy to slop boiling water over the edge of the smaller filter.

The #4 filter fits similarly except that the #4 extends above the rim of the cone to hold more water if you tend to over-pour.

I just purchased the cone featured here (mine is black) and bought it from Bed Bath and Beyond (please note that I've bought other, more costly items from Amazon.com whose prices and service are among the best).

Bought the new cone because the open space at the bottom should make it easy to see when the cup is full instead of lifting the unit from the cup. One thing I noticed is that the bottom is slightly rounded on mine, so it doesn't fit as well on the top of the coffee cup. Not sure if that'll matter much when there's coffee and water in it. That's why I give my new cone only 4 stars... Read more
