Capresso Elegance Therm

This machine was a real disappointment. After searching for a machine with a thermal carafe for months, I jumped at the opportunity to buy this one. Since that time, a number of significantly better machines have come to market.

Drip machines just pour hot water over coffee grinds. If you don't like the way it comes out, adjust your grind size and/or dosage. Not all drip machines are going to make coffee well with the same grind. After a couple of pots, I was able to figure...

Makes a wonderful cup of coffee, but not made as well as it could be for the expensive price. Hard to clean. After only a year of use, it needs replacement, and I would not buy this one again. Sturdier equipment is available for the $120 price tag.

Design seems excellent, but manufacturing quality leaves much to be desired. Used Braun and Krups machines until Capresso released the direct-to-therm machine. Therm leaked in 1st month of use. Company would not replace, though did sell replacement...

Excellent taste and perfect temp. Even though I expected better durability after paying $100+ I?m loyal to this coffee maker, because the coffee really does taste great. BUT if you?re a door-slammer, then this maker isn?t for you. It won?t make it!
