A coffee maker (20) includes a housing (21) supporting a coffee grinder (23) for grinding coffee beans, and a brewer which includes a reservoir (24) for holding water, a filter basket (28) for receiving ground coffee beans discharged from the grinder and water from the reservoir, a pump (66) in fluid communication with the reservoir, and a heater (74) for heating water from the reservoir. In the preferred embodiment, the pump pumps water through the heater, which heats the water, and then into the filter basket. The coffee maker also includes a thermally insulated carafe (30), removably connected to the housing for receiving brewed coffee from the filter basket of the brewer. A central processing unit (32) having a memory (48) is operably connected to the pump, heater, and grinder for causing coordinated operation of the coffee maker at times based on data stored in the memory of the central processing unit.
