I wouldn't recommend it! Why would Krups, or anyone, make a machine with a glass carafe? Thermal carafes are so much more functional, practically never break, and don't require warming heaters.

Personally I prefer a glass carafe:  I like to see my coffee, I like to see exactly how clean the bottom of it is when it's gone, and I don't need a warming heater anyway.  I pour hot water into my Zojirushi carafe while the coffee is brewing and pour everything except the first cup in there.

I like this little thing a lot.   
Sure as s*** beats the tank of a Bunn I tried out last November.  I sent it back as fast as I could get UPS to come an pick it up again....

Ah, well I was a moderator there briefly myself (until I decided I didn't like not being able to speak my own mind), and still check in to see what's going on and if anyone needs any particular help with their Gaggias.  

Off topic: Did you have a run in with the Prince of coffee?  ::) ;) If so then you aren't alone. Welcome to our club where you can definitely speak your mind and in some cases too much.

Oh yeah.....sure did....:-)))))))))))))))))))))

Uh Oh....I hope it won't hurt your feelings to know that I don't know the story/legend.  Or maybe I do and just don't link it with you as I see you/read you/know you here.  And/or it might have been before I got there?

Who knows....?
I learned a lot there.  I would not be here now if I hadn't been there for long enough to get hooked on Gaggias. 
So now I try to go back and see if I can be helpful to seekers and newbies who are looking for some of that small area of information that I have accumulated.

Or one ego maniac that seems to have a history of these types of run-ins with people(paying advertisers no less) unwilling to kiss his a$$. I don't know which perspective I see it from yet ;D

It's sort of ironic sometimes when you take a step back and survey the landscape....it's just funny is all.
