Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Brew up to 10 cups of delicious, full-flavored coffee in under eight minutes with this programmable coffeemaker. The machine provides an illuminated, 24-hour, LCD digital clock and timer with soft-touch controls for easy operation. Set the timer so that fresh, hot coffee awaits dinner guests when it's time to serve dessert or so that the aroma of a freshly brewed pot fills the house a few minutes before the alarm goes off in the morning. The coffeemaker supplies a 10-cup glass carafe with an ergonomic stay-cool handle, brew-through lid, and drip-free pouring spout. Removing the carafe from the coffeemaker stops the flow of coffee and allows for sneaking a quick cup before the end of the brewing process. Simply replace the carafe to restart the flow of coffee. Another thoughtful detail includes its special smaller-amount setting, which ensures maximum aroma when brewing just 3 to 5 cups at a time. For added convenience, the coffeemaker features a stainless-steel-lined heating system that eliminates contact with aluminum and reduces the need for decalcifying, the ability to retain programming during short power outages, and automatic shut-off after two hours for safety and peace of mind. Other highlights include a handy water-level indicator, a washable gold-tone filter (no need for disposable paper filters), a charcoal water filter that removes up to 82-percent of chlorine and other impurities from tap water, and an electronic indicator that shows when to replace the charcoal filter, as well as milled steel housing for superior strength and style and concealed cord storage to keep countertops looking tidy. The coffeemaker measures approximately 9 by 8 by 14 inches.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally-A wonderful coffeemaker, January 9, 2010

I purchased a capresso coffemaker in the 1990's and loved it. However it was used so much that it wore out. It lasted about 10 years. However I could never find one to replace it that I liked. Well now Capresso has finally come up with a model that is better than the one I used to own. It makes a wonderful HOT cup of coffee and it tastes so great! It's very easy to use, especially filling the tank and I just love it. Thank you Capresso.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot Coffee, February 25, 2010

By 

Awdio Kreep "tlaloc" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jura-Capresso Specialty Coffee Makers MG 600, Stainless Steel/Black Accents (Kitchen)

Looks nice on the kitchen counter. Fairly easy to fill. Removable filter holder. Comes with a gold filter or you can use #4 paper cone filters. Carafe has comfortable handle and pours easily. Construction quality seems good. Replacement carafe and other parts available from Capresso. Replaceable water filters available. Makes great HOT coffee. Worth the money....

Follow up December 2010: Still enjoying the coffee maker. I stll have problems with the replaceable water filters -- they make the coffee maker spit and leak -- the filters seem to stop up after a week or two. I went back to pouring in filtered water from a Brita carafe. Finally: used coffee grounds make great garden fertilizer!

I bought this one after a long search to replace my Braun FlavorSelect that made an awesome cup of coffee and had no weird problems, but lasted for 8 years and then died. I first bought a Bunn and a Cuisinart and literally gave them away to Salvation Army because they didn't do the one and only thing a coffeemaker should do - that's to make a good cup of coffee.
Yes, the reviewers are right, this unit makes a great cup of HOT coffee, but now hear the rest... I exchanged one to find that it's a design flaw and not a defect of the first unit. Toward the end of the brewing cycle water caught between the 2 filter holders streams down the right side of the pot and onto the burner sizzling. That's very bad for the burner and will distroy it in no time. The second problem is that it literally brings the coffee to a simmering boil immediately after it's done brewing. It's easiest to see when the coffeemaker is brand new and you brew water 1st time to clean the unit from the factory stuff. I hoped it was the defect of the 1st unit being cranked up too high but it's not. So no wander the coffee is "HOT"! Everyone knows that coffee should never be boiled and here we have the coffeemaker doing it. There is no way to turn down the temperature either, so be ware, even for those of us who insist on hot coffee - we'll probably get our mouth burned. The third flaw is that the unit slurps loudly, my 1st unit didn't know when to stop and the new one stops when the water is gone. There is no beep to let you know when the coffee is ready, but maybe one doesn't really need it; once the loud slurping stops you know it's ready.
They just don't make them like they used to (:( But after so much money wasted on other higher end coffee makers that could not make a good cup of coffee, i'm going to keep this one and keep putting a wadded up paper towel between the filter unit and the pot to sop up the stream of steam and i'll have to turn the pot off immediately before the coffee gets totally boiled. A pain really but what choice have i got; they stopped making the FlavorSelect years ago...
