Features

Pause ’N Serve

This feature allows you to pour a cup of coffee before the entire brew cycle has completed. By removing the carafe, the flow of coffee will temporarily stop. The flow of coffee will resume when carafe is returned to the Keep-Hot Plate.

Do not remove carafe more than 20 seconds or brew basket may overflow.

Brew Strength Selector (on selected models)

This feature allows you to control the strength/flavor of the coffee. To select from mild to strong flavor, rotate the Brew Strength Selector Knob, located on top of the coffeemaker, to desired strength.
