Technivorm KBT-741 Moccamaster Black Coffee Maker 1.25-L. Review

Technivorm KBT-741 Moccamaster Black Coffee Maker 1.25-L.I've owned this machine for over two years. It is beautifully designed and well made. I love the look. Is the coffee brewed by this machine THAT much better, given its lofty price? Nope, not to my taste. The thermal carafe does not keep the coffee near brewing temperature for long, even after tempering the carafe for 15 minutes with boiling water.The first cup is excellent, but anything after the first cup grows steadily tepid. Might just as well use a press pot, which certainly allows the best expression of fresh ground beans. My Technivorm machine still works well, but for my morning coffee I am replacing it with a basic glass-carafed maker with heat element (Capresso MG600).

Product Description:
The Technivorm Moccamaster KBT-741 Clubline brewer is a simple, precise and elegant electric drip brewer. No gadgets here. This is a handmade coffeemaker built in Holland. The main asset of the Moccamaster is its ability to maintain perfect brewing temperature throughout the entire brewing cycle, an attribute that has earned it certification from at least two coffee trade associations. This is a quality product, done simply.It uses an independent energy-efficient heat exchanger that brews directly into the stainless-steel-lined ThermoJug server. That means your coffee maintains an optimal temperature between 194 and 204??F. A consistent temperature is key to preservingthe flavors and aromas of coffee, and this machine does just that.It also brews a full pot in about 5-6 minutes.The Technivorm Thermal takes an exceptional machine ??? the Technivorm Clubline KB 741 ??? and improves upon it by replacing a hot plate with a thermal carafe. There???s a reason that Technivorm has created 1 of only 2 machines that meet the Specialty Coffee Association of America???s (SCAA) certification standards, and that???s because its design preserves the entire spectrum of flavors in every cup. Water is heated and passes through the coffee consistently, brewing quickly and quietly. It is also approved by the European Coffee Brewing Centre (ECBC) and Specialty Coffee Association of Europe (SCAE). Only a h

DeLonghi DCM485 10-Cup Thermal Carafe and Coffeemaker, Brushed Stainless Steel Review

DeLonghi  DCM485 10-Cup Thermal Carafe and Coffeemaker, Brushed Stainless SteelAre you tired of parts made of plastic and not real metal? This coffee maker is made of genuine brushed stainless.If the part on this machine looks like metal, it is metal.The overall look and style is very European, even the buttons and display are good quality and simple to use and understand.The carafe is stainless inside and out, and keeps the coffee hot for at least 4 hours.The water resevoir lifts out for easily filling from the tap, so you don't have to fill the carafe first and pour it into the machine.The resavoir has graduated markings.Also, the filter holder comes out for easy cleaning.The only quirk I found is that, as with other themal carafes, you have to pour slowly to keep from dripping.It also helps to read the manual that explains how far to unscrew the top before pouring to avoid drips.

Technivorm KBT-741 Moccamaster polished silver Coffee Maker 1.25-L. Review

Technivorm KBT-741 Moccamaster polished silver Coffee Maker 1.25-L.I just got this and must say it does the job ( hence the 5 of 5)of delivering the hot water to the coffee and brewing very good coffee, but it hasquirksI'm not appreciating inmy morning coffee brewing routine.First after its finished brewing there is still 1/2 cup of water in the "plumbing" which requires you to tip the pot over and empty very hot water out, other wiseyou'll be starting with stale water and perhaps accelerating the scaling,
second the foot plate does not "lock in" as they say so when you lift the pot to move it( or empty it)it does fall off ,
third to my dismay the thermal jug will require a brush to keep clean as the mouth is too narrow to get your hand in there to scrub( this is also a VERYBIGproblem with my Capresso thermal),
fourth since the top of the thermal jug does not fitback in under the coffee basket when its on thejug I'm tryig to figure out where to keep everything so not to use up extracounter space nor lose the top
Fifth asIslide itaround on the counter top( out to be used and backinwhen not) the feet are leaving some marks ( which come up with cleaning) on the granite countertop.
and last it seems for few dollars more they could have included a circuit to turn it self off when its done brewing, rather than leaving it to the early morning harried coffee drinker to remembertoswitch it off. So yes very good coffee, butthe quirks are on par with the ones you deal with with a french press ( which is much cheaper)

Kalorik USKTKM2 10 Cup Programamable Coffee Maker Review

Kalorik USKTKM2 10 Cup Programamable Coffee Maker"Kalorik coffee maker looks and works great. 40.5oz. stainless thermos carafe is nice but wouldn't call it 10 cups. The cone type filters(none included)seem to use less coffee. The 24hr digital clock with program timer is easy to set. Hot plate has 2hr auto shut-off. Great coffee maker for the price and it looks like it would be a much more expensive model."

Black & Decker CM1509 8-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker with Thermal Carafe Review

Black and Decker CM1509 8-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker with Thermal CarafeWe bought this coffee maker about 5 days ago and were immediately and continuously disappointed. The carafe keeps the coffee tepid at best. There is no heating element on the coffee maker. From the moment coffee is made (not very hot) it gets cold. Within 30 minutes it is not drinkable. Additionally, the reservoir fill markers are easy to see but it is very, very difficult to see the water level. Unless you look directly into the coffee maker reservoir or pour the water into the reservoir from some premeasured container, it is almost impossible to determine how much water is in the reservoir.

Product Description:
Brew up to 8 cups of great-tasting coffee at a time with this easy-to-use coffeemaker. The unit's programmable clock and timer make it possible to wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee--or to have a pot ready to serve with dessert, without having to get up from the table half way through dinner. The coffeemaker comes with a sleek-looking thermal carafe, which not only keeps coffee at an ideal serving temperature, but also provides a generous stay-cool handle and a dripless pour spout for graceful serving. Removing the carafe midbrew pauses the flow of coffee and allows for pouring a quick cup--great for those in a hurry. Other highlights include a water-level indicator window, a removable filter basket, a cupcake filter type, a user-friendly control panel with an LED display, auto shut-off for peace of mind, and cord storage to help keep counters looking tidy. The coffeemaker measures approximately 11-1/2 by 8-8/9 by 13-8/9 inches.

Black & Decker DE790B 8-Cup Thermal Carafe Coffeemaker, Black with stainless carafe Review

Black and Decker DE790B 8-Cup Thermal Carafe Coffeemaker, Black with stainless carafeI think this is a great buy.I live alone.For me, the 4 cup machines were just too small and the 12 cup were too big.I also did not want a machine with a hot plate since they burn the coffee and make it taste bitter.I was happy with the $10 B&D single cup machine which I kept at my desk at work. This was the cheapest Carafe machine I could find ($29.99 at Target).

I am a bit of a coffee geek.I home roast my own coffee beans.Grind my beans right before I brew my coffee.I have not checked it with a thermometer, but this brews at a close to ideal temperature. I am using about 7-8 grams per cup and find it makes a good strong cup of coffee.The brew cycle is on the slow side, but for me that is good. The slower brew makes for a better extraction. I use a mesh basket and have not had a major problem with the grinds overflowing into the coffee.This has been a big issue with other machines I have owned.But by keeping the water coming at a decent speed, it seems OK with this machine.

The carafe does a fair job at keeping the coffee hot.After 4-5 hours and three mugs, the coffee is still at a good hot drinkable temperature.The outside of the carafe stays cool to the touch.Yes a hot plate machine would keep it hotter, but after an hour or two, the coffee would be burnt.

I will offer one tip for hotter coffee.Either rinse or or let the carafe sit for a few minutes with hot top tap water right before brewing.This will preheat the carafe a bit and make a few degrees difference in your coffee.

I know there are a lot of negative reviews on this I will try to address some of the points.

The Machine Flooded my Counter:
This is not the machines fault.You did not have the carafe properly seated in the machine.This can be a problem with any machine where you stop brewing to serve a cup.Cuisinart machines are even worse at this.But if you make sure the carafe is seated correctly, you will not have a problem.Also if you fill it above the 8 cup level, the carafe will overflow.

Hot Plate did not work:
Thermal Carafe machines generally do not have hotplates.Plus hot plates generally have auto shut off now.So after a couple of hours, your coffee will in addition to taste burnt, will cool quickly.This machinekeeps your coffee for 4-6 hours without tasting burnt.

Coffee tastes bitter or metallic:
Make sure to rinse after each use. Try cleaning it with sudsy water and the occasional soak with white vinegar and water.

Timer is tough to use:
Read the owners manual.It is not rocket science.It is like programing a digital alarm clock.

Yes there can be bad machines that do not brew at the right temp.But most of the bad reviews for this product are the result of user error and not due to a design defect.

For the money, this is a great buy in a thermal carafe drip Machine.There are no major flaws.It looks good on the counter, and keeps the coffee hot for a few hours.For $30-$40 I think this machine is a steal!!!

Product Description:
Use the digital clock / timer and wake to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee.In a hurry?Enjoy the convenience of Pause-to-Serve to stop the brew cycle while you pour a quick cup full.For peace of mind the unit shuts off immediately after brewing and the thermal carafe keeps the coffee at optimal temperature for several hours.

Zojirushi ECBD15 Fresh Brew Stainless Steel Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker w/ Decalcifier Review

Zojirushi ECBD15 Fresh Brew Stainless Steel Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker w/ DecalcifierFirst, if you are interested in this coffee maker.Buy the EC-BD15.Amazon has it for about $68 and free shipping.It is the same as the EC-BD15BA.We bought the EC-BD15.OurEC-BD15 had an inserted sheet in the instruction manual that corrects the manual by replacing the #3 filter wording for the #4 filter wording.The #4 filter fits fine, no cutting or anything.Apparently the the EC-BD15BA has the wording corrected in the manual and prints it on the box.If that is worth the difference in cost then go for it.It really just looks like a translation problem for the American market that uses #4 filters.
The coffee maker is exactly 15 inches tall.So make sureyou have room under a cabinet if you store it there. My wife says the coffee stays hotter than in our old Mr Coffee thermal model. This caraffe is unbreakable because it is solid steel.No glass insert like our old Mr Coffee.

Product Description:
Lots of folks dislike the burnt flavor that coffee gets when it sits in a glass pot over a heating element. To avoid this, coffee shops often brew right into large thermal pots to keep the coffee warm without it becoming overcooked. The Zojirushi Fresh Brew does that, too, but in home-sized batches. It looks great, too, with a glossy black body and stainless steel carafe and brew basket. To brew, lift the lid and swing the water outlet spout to one side while the filter is being loaded; the spout will return to its proper position when the lid is closed. A small red ball in the water gauge makes it extra simple to read. And an electronic clock module also serves as a timer that will start the brewer at a specified time. The carafe's lid is designed to be on during brewing, with a small cap to help keep the heat in after it's ready. The Fresh Brew also has a pause-and-serve function that stops the flow for 30 seconds while a cup of coffee is served. +PLUS+ - Durgol Swiss Espresso is a special decalcifier which decalcifies all types and brands of espresso machines at the highest level of quality. Compared to vinegar and competing descaling solutions, Durgol IS far more efficient and effective at removing scale build up. Durgol Decalcifying Liquid is also recommended by Capresso for many Capresso Coffee/Espresso Machines (check your manual for recommendations).
