Brewers that operate at 195-205 F

[chancuff]

I just read about the Krups power Brew  only avaliable at William and Sonoma  $119.00

1400 watts brews 5% hotter (195 - 205 degrees) and 21% faster....

Does anyone here have one of these.

Yet another opportunity ... $80/or best offer, free shipping

I really feel I need to share my newest coffee related purchase. The Newco AKH AP brewer.



It will brew 64 ounces of coffee in 9 minutes. Exterior temp of the basket during the brew cycle is 175 by my IR thermometer. The coffee in the airpot is 185. I don't have a probe to sneak into the basket, but it probably is spot on. The water is heated by a 1775 watt 14.8 amp heat pump. The spray head gives good dispersion. I did a dry trial without filter or coffee and noted the water seemed to pulse which I suppose improves mixing of grounds and water.

Bottom line: It makes great coffee. It gets a lot of flavor when used in combination with my Rocky.

Now I have to find a permanent filter to fit this.

Sounds impressive ... do you mind me asking you how much?

I bought it here:

Better price than Newco would give me. I think we need Joe to sweet talk JoAnn. Interestingly, it was direct shipped from Newco.

You just turn it on fill it with a pitcher of water and make great coffee. It doesn't use a reservoir like the Bunn's I am familiar with.

Airpot is separate.

I have been sweet talking to no avail supposedly the Chinese supplier has upped the contract of the OCS brewers. However with our discount Newco was quoting me the ak series at $227.00 with our discount, the non heat pump was slightly more.

The real question is this; did you have to resubmit your application for membership?  SHEEEEEESH, Py!  It's been like 2 years!         Good thing the rest of us were sitting down when we opened this thread.

Well, yes many changes at the Py household. I am in the middle of 7 6P to 6A shifts. The world is different at 3 AM.

I do love my new coffee maker.

New professional brewer to be put out by Krups soon.  "The coffeemaker also provides an 1100-watt heating system to achieve an optimal brewing temperature of 195 to 205 degrees F for full-bodied flavor, plus a two-filter water-filtration system and an electronic de-scaling indicator to help ensure cleaner water."

If anyone gets a line on this please update here.

for those using a Newco OCS. I was having trouble finding a permanent filter that fit the basket style holder. I was going through a cabinet and found an old Braun gold filter from an old pot that died. I said, "What the heck." It fit. I filled the brewer with water and coffee.

Then I stood by for overflows and....

It worked producing a nice flavorful pot of coffee. wow.

I found that the Kitchenaid Proline gold filter works here. It doesn't fit perfectly, but it works.
