Our verdict

A precise drip brewer with a glass carafe for people who drink coffee soon after brewing and want specialty-level control. Glass does not hold heat like a thermal carafe, so long holds suffer.

Overview

Specialty coffee drinkers who brew and pour right away get a programmable drip machine with a glass carafe and PID temperature control. Presets cover gold cup, strong, iced and cold brew, and a custom mode sets bloom, temperature and flow.

Brewing precision matches the thermal version, while the glass carafe lets you see how much is left. Glass loses heat faster, so it suits households that finish the pot quickly.

Who it's for

Households that enjoy coffee fresh and finish it soon get full control with a clear view of the carafe. Those who sip over several hours should choose a thermal carafe model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • PID temperature control
  • See remaining coffee through glass
  • Custom bloom and flow settings
  • Single cup or full pot
Cons
  • Glass carafe loses heat faster
  • Several settings to learn

Performance notes

Taste depends on the water temperature and contact time the machine sets: PID control holds temperature, and flow rate changes how long water meets the grounds. For small batches the Steep and Release valve holds water in the basket to avoid weak cups.
