The latest coffee technology from Krups offers an advanced brewing method that steeps the grounds to release full bodied, flavorful coffee. You can serve yourself a cup at any time during the brewing cycle from the drip-free stainless steel carafe. The coffee maker brews through to a large 10-cup thermos that keeps your java hot for hours without sacrificing freshness. A programmable clock/timer lets you use the coffee maker as an aromatic wake-up call.
