Amazon.com Review
Employing a stainless-steel vacuum carafe instead of a warming plate, this coffeemaker brews up to 10 cups in under eight minutes for maximum flavor and aroma, and the carafe then keeps the coffee hot for several hours. The carafe prevents coffee from turning bitter, as it can when sitting on a warming plate, and doesn't have to remain with the machine for coffee to stay hot. The machine also offers a setting for brewing three to five cups without diluting the flavor or aroma. The unit's charcoal water filter removes up to 83 percent of the chlorine in tap water, and its electronic indicator shows when the water filter needs replacing. To reduce calcification, Capresso's stainless-steel ThermoBlock system prevents water from contacting aluminum inside the machine.

For added convenience, the coffeemaker's digital, programmable, 24-hour clock/timer makes it possible to have coffee ready in the morning, while its brew-pause function allows for pouring a cup midbrew. Other useful features include a handy side panel with easy-access soft-touch controls, an illuminated LED display, a drip-free spout, a permanent Gold Tone filter, automatic shutoff after brewing, an external water-level indicator, and concealed cord storage. Made of high-gloss aluminum alloy with black, plastic accents, the coffeemaker measures 9-3/4 by 10 by 13-3/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews

Capresso is fantastic
This is a great coffee maker. I was looking for a carafe coffee maker after our cuisinart coffee pot broke. The Capresso makes excellent coffee, is really well designed with a simple screw on lid for the carafe and makes coffee so fast it is crazy. I also happen to love the design - not that I really care what it looks like if it makes good coffee, but you get your cake and eat it too with this coffee maker. Highly recommend if you want to pay a bit more for a coffee maker. Bottom line if you drink coffee every day and in particular throughout the day (as the carafe keeps the coffee hot for hours) then this is a great choice.

Awesome machine!
I love everything about this coffee maker! It looks great and it makes a great cup of coffee. I have not a had a single complaint about it so far.

An Excellent Product
What else is there to say... it brews a fine cup of coffee and keeps it hot and fresh for hours. No more burned coffee after 45 minutes!
