Designed for Everyday Convenience

Every detail is crafted to streamline your morning routine while brewing bold, flavourful coffee at home, in small apartments, or at the cottage.

Instant Brew Pause™

Pour your first fresh cup before the brewing cycle completes. The Brew Pause™ mechanism temporarily halts the drip flow as you remove the carafe, ensuring no counter messes or delays.

Stainless Steel Carafe

Constructed with a sleek stainless steel body, an ergonomic comfort-grip handle, a protective knuckle guard, and a precision dripless spout for steady, tidy pouring from kitchen to table.

Lift-Out Water Reservoir

The removable water reservoir lifts directly off the machine base, making filling under the tap quick and mess-free while clear cup level markings take the guesswork out of measuring.

Pure Dual Filtration

Includes an active charcoal water filter to reduce chlorine and tap impurities, paired with a permanent washable nylon filter that eliminates the recurring need for disposable paper filters.

30-Min Keep Warm & Shutoff

A dedicated heating plate maintains the ideal serving temperature for 30 minutes following extraction, followed by an automatic safety shutoff that provides complete peace of mind.

Single-Touch Simplicity

Straightforward toggle switch with an integrated power indicator light makes starting your morning brew effortless—no complicated menus or confusing programming required.

Maintenance & Tips

Care & Usage Guide

Maintain peak coffee extraction and prolong the lifespan of your coffee maker with these simple care recommendations.

01

Daily Cleaning

Rinse the permanent nylon filter and stainless steel carafe thoroughly after each use with warm, soapy water. Wipe the exterior housing with a soft damp cloth.

02

Charcoal Filter Care

Soak the charcoal water filter cartridge before initial installation. Replace every 60 days or after approximately 60 uses to maintain fresh, crisp tap water filtration.

03

Periodic Descaling

Run a cycle using a standard descaling solution or a diluted vinegar mixture every 1 to 3 months depending on local water hardness to prevent mineral scale buildup.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Brew Pause™ function work?

When you slide the stainless steel carafe out of the warming base during an active brewing cycle, a spring-loaded seal under the brew basket temporarily stops the flow of coffee. You can pour a quick cup and return the carafe within 20–30 seconds so the rest of the pot finishes brewing seamlessly.

Do I need to buy paper filters for this machine?

No. The machine includes a reusable permanent nylon mesh coffee filter that holds ground coffee directly. However, standard #2 cone paper filters can also be used if you prefer paper filtration.

How long does the warming plate keep the coffee hot?

The built-in warming plate stays active for 30 minutes following the brewing cycle to maintain optimal serving temperature, after which the automatic shutoff feature safely turns off the heating element.

Can the water reservoir be removed for filling?

Yes. The water tank lifts straight out of the machine body, allowing you to fill it directly under your kitchen faucet or filtered water dispenser without splashing or tipping the entire appliance.
