Similar to brewing great espresso at the brew head temperature of 220 F, one would get excellent coffee from a drip coffee maker at between 195 F. However, while all drip coffee makers boast of this capability, there are only a few that can effectively deliver this brew temperature. Most drip machine can only reach 185 F, and of course there are a few "heroes" that exceed our expectations and went beyond 200 F to burn the coffee!
So, if you have a coffee machine that can deliver the brew temperature at the recommended temperature of 195 F, you are assured of good coffee. However, don't you think it is a waste if you would to make a full pot of good coffee and minutes later, it goes stale?
No, please do not even bother to think about heating plate -ask yourself this question, have you ever drink good coffee from heating plate? **you would just have to visit Mac Donald's for breakfast, to discover how "good" is coffee on heating plate
And it doesn't stop there, this capresso coffee machine functions reads like a pilot flight test check. I would not go into the buttons and the programmable functions, but I would like to highlight the heating element. We all know that having food and drink touching aluminum is not good for the body, and capresso seems to agreed with that.
Because they market themselves as the only coffee maker in the market with a stainless steel lined heating element. This eliminates any contact with aluminum, improving the safety aspect of drinking coffee.
Let's run through the special elements: it brew at right temperature, it keeps coffee fresh for a long time and you are assured of food safety by them. So, I think I am not too biased to list this capresso coffee machine, MT 500 as one of the best drip coffee maker around, right?
