A brewer made in accordance with the present invention has a control center, including a selector switch for strength selection; a brew button to initiate brewing and dispensing of the beverage, and an on/off or power button. The selector switch and buttons are preferably mounted on a common tray that is then interposed between first and second housing portions during assembly of the brewer. There is also an illumination device, such a high-intensity, tri-color light-emitting diode (LED), which emits red light, green light, blue light, or a combination thereof to provide visual indication of an operational status of the brewer.
