My old faithful coffee pot is crappin' out on me after ~5 yrs. It's a Cuisinart Grind 'n' Brew that was a wedding gift. Over those last 5 yrs, I've gotten pickier about coffee, I'm now willing to consider a separate grinder/brewer. Right now I'm looking at this grinder: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS.../coffeegeek-20

Seems to get good reviews at coffeegeek, after a modification... and modification = fun in my book.

Now I need something to pair with it. I've thought about french press, or moka, or some other crazy device.... But I really want something that has a built-in timer so my coffee is ready when I wake up. Am I stuck with a regular ol' drip machine? Any recommendations for <$100? Need something fairly large too, 8 cups minimum.
