Hamilton Beach FlexBrew Trio 2-Way Coffee Maker, Black — Single-Serve & 12-Cup Programmable, Fast 90-Second Brew

The Hamilton Beach FlexBrew Trio is a versatile 3-in-1 coffee maker that brews a single cup from a K-Cup pod or grounds in about 90 seconds or makes a full 12-cup pot for multiple servings.

Whether you want a rapid single cup on weekday mornings or a full carafe for guests, the FlexBrew Trio combines single-serve convenience with a traditional drip brewer in one countertop unit. It includes a removable cup rest to accommodate travel mugs, a 56 oz. reservoir that supports multiple single brews without refilling, and easy-touch programming for the 12-cup side so you can wake up to freshly brewed coffee.

How quickly can I get a single cup and what sizes are available?

You can brew a single serving in about 90 seconds when using a pod or ground coffee, making it one of the faster two-way machines. The machine offers multiple portion choices to match mugs and travel cups precisely.

• Single-serve brew times: ~90 seconds
• Single-serve sizes: 6, 8, 10, or 12 oz with grounds; 6, 8, or 10 oz with pods
• Travel-mug compatible: removable cup rest fits up to 7" tall mugs

Can I make a large pot for guests and set it to brew automatically?

The right side of the FlexBrew Trio functions as a standard 12-cup drip coffee maker with a glass carafe. It features easy-touch programming and a backlit display so you can schedule brewing ahead of time.

• Capacity: 12-cup glass carafe for serving multiple people
• Programmable wake-up brew with clear time display
• Auto Pause & Pour lets you pour mid-brew without spills

How does the machine handle water and cleaning for daily use?

The single-serve side draws from a 56 oz. water reservoir that can brew several single cups before refilling, saving time on busy mornings. Cleaning is straightforward thanks to removable parts and a dishwasher-safe glass carafe.

• 56 oz. reservoir brews up to seven single servings without refill
• Removable pod-piercing needle for simple cleaning and clog prevention
• Dishwasher-safe 12-cup glass carafe for easy maintenance

What brewing options and customization does it offer?

The FlexBrew Trio supports both pod convenience and manual brewing with grounds, plus strength control so you can tailor flavor. A storage area in the removable cup rest keeps the pod holder or brew basket close at hand.

• Select-a-Brew: regular or bold strength settings
• Includes single-serve pod holder and single-serve brew basket
• Five single-serve size options and two brew methods in one unit

Who this is for: The Hamilton Beach FlexBrew Trio suits households or small offices that need flexible coffee routines—fast single cups for commuters, programmable large-batch brewing for families or meetings, and easy cleanup for everyday use. If you value choice between pods and grounds, want fast single-serve performance, and need a single appliance that covers both individual and group brewing, this model is designed to deliver.
