Technivorm Model KBT 741 Moccamaster Thermo Series Coffee Machines are Technivorms original 40 oz. brewer design, which we recommend when brewing for more than 1 person. Free ground shipping and free 23k gold SwissGold Filter included with all Technivorm Moccamaster units! Technivorm MoccaMaster thermo coffee brewer units were rated the #1 coffee machine by Americas Test Kitchen - Cooks Illustrated. Watch a short video clip of what Cooks Illustrated had to say about testing coffee brewers. Technivorm Thermo Carafe units brew directly into a stainless steel thermo carafe that is included with the unit. The thermal carafe helps to keep your coffee hotter for extended periods of time, without the scorched taste of coffee that has sat too long on a hot burner. If you have the need for coffee to stay hotter, fresher, for a longer periods of time, we recommend a Technivorm thermal coffee maker. All Technivorm units include an adjustable brew basket, which allows longer, or shorter coffee-water contact times, and also serves as a quick way to stop the flow to grab a cup before the brew process is complete, which we do not recommend, as this will affect the overall quality of the entire pot, as well as risk an overflowing basket if you forget to move it back into its proper position! Technivorm manufactures home coffee brewers in two basic categories, units that incorporate a thermal carafe for keeping your brew hot for an extended period of time, and units without a thermal carafe, but with a separate heating element to keep your brew piping hot! We recommend you choose a unit that fits your needs, so if you have the need to keep your brew hot longer, without the over-cooked taste of a pot that has sat on a burner for a long time, we recommend a unit with a thermal carafe. If you go through your pot fairly quickly, as in a busy office environment, the need for a unit with a thermal carafe may be over-kill. For an even fresher cup of coffee, combine a Technivorm unit with one of our popular home coffee roasters, and be your own roastmaster! All Technivorm coffee maker units incorporate a heavy duty extruded aluminum body, and solid copper heating element, there are no internal components made from aluminum that come in contact with the your brew! Technivorm builds their coffee brewers to withstand years of continual service, while also keeping in mind the need for using durable, safe, human friendly materials in their manufacturing processes. Technivorm units are all made with easily removable parts for proper cleaning and maintenance. When brewing a great cup of coffee, its important that the water is at an optimal temperature range of 197F - 205F before introducing the water to the coffee grounds, which ensures proper extraction. All Technivorm units, by design, are one of the few brewers on the market that reach the correct water temperatures during your brewing process. Technivorm coffee brewers are designed to move the proper amount of water - 40 ounces - in the correct amount of time - 5 minutes, for optimal coffee brewing. |
