Features
This filter coffee machine is popular because it can create a huge amount of hot coffee at the touch of a button. This is a significant advantage over other similar models that could only produce hot coffee, or an iced mug that is slightly warm. It does this by using the use of a heat exchanger that ensures that the water is at the optimum temperature while brewing.
This model uses a permanent recyclable paper filter, which lets users save money (and reduce the environmental impact) by not having to purchase disposable filters. It is also simple to clean. Simply take off the glass tank, lid and jug and clean them in warm soapy tap water. Clean the other parts of the device. The unit is easy to use with an easy-to-read LED display that shows both the timer and power indicator. It can be programmed to switch on at a particular time that is a great feature for people who like to rise early and enjoy their coffee before heading to work or school.
As with most filter coffee machines, it's important to periodically descale the machine to keep mineral build up at low levels. It is easy to do this by following the manufacturer’s instructions or using a commercial descale product. The machine also comes with a handy water level indicator which makes it easy to track the amount of water that is in the machine at any given time.
Another feature that customers really like is that it allows them to set a brewing time and their coffee will be ready when they get up in the morning. Many customers have also said that they find the machine easy to use and they appreciate the fact that a majority of its components (the lid and tank of the jug are dishwasher-safe). This makes it even easier to clean the machine after use. Finally, this model has 4 water hardness settings so it can be adjusted to match the type of water you are using at home. This will ensure that your filter coffee is of the same quality regardless of how water conditions be.
