Those who had trouble posting on this thread, I am sorry. Somehow it got locked (before peter could twist the knife). It should be better now.

BTW, I'm really not sorry peter couldn't post. I have to be honest.

I still can't post!  What is going on here!?!

so if the average home brewer will not get it up to 200? what about high altitude brewers at a lower altitude??

If you read the manual, the Bunn holds water at 200 F and finishes the brew in 3 min. For use with fine grind or fresh roasted coffee they recommend a flow restricting spray head which you can get just by contacting the company. I suspect that will lengthen the brew time slightly.

Since they claim a temp of 200F it should be verifiable for you that have the unit.

your post lead me to find another brewer that may bear some looking into and probably belong on the list.

They claim to be "SCAA Gold Cup Standard. They are 1715 watt 15 amp.  "These energy efficient brewers turn themselves on as you pour in the water, brew exactly what is poured in, and then turn themselves back off."

I had researched the Cafejo's in the past and thought it would be an excellant brewer, but I couldn't justify the mid three hundred dollar price!  I certainly would be interested in a group buy...

Good work Pyment.  That changes things.  On Amazon.com a Bunn BTX thermal brewer is going for $123.70.  With a group buy I would imagine we can get maybe 30 to 40 bucks off that.  If this is so that would be a very reasonable cost with a brewer that most people have heard of.  Those Cafejo's look to be a tad too rich IMHO.

I wrote to Cafejo and asked about the SCAA certification and how long it took a pot to brew and received the following reply...

Hi Rodney,
Yes, the TE-116 is certified by the SCAA.
It takes about 5 minutes to brew a pot of coffee.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.


Thank You,
Sarah Atherton

I did see that all three of the pourovers are available for $299 each at dccoffeeproducts.com, so there must be some room for discounts.

There is something obscene about a $300+ coffee brewer, unless it's going to be used in a B-52 or B-2 (nothing's too good for the boys in blue). Do these qualify for stim$'s?
