Capresso MT500 Coffee Maker

Capresso MT500 brews ten cups of coffee in less than eight minutes. The beautiful high-gloss body provides superior stability. The polished surface is specially treated to maintain its luster. Water does not contact the aluminum which significantly reduces calcification. Coffee will stay hot for up to four hours. Owners of the Capresso MT 500 love the great taste of the coffee, the speed of brewing and the easy cleaning. The electronic filter indicator shows when to replace the charcoal filter. Coffee lovers appreciate the best tasting coffee in just minutes.

Aside from being a superior coffee maker, the MT500 is a sleek, elegant appliance that looks great on any kitchen counter. The keypad is simple and easy to use and includes a digital clock for 24-hour programmability (a key must-have for me). The unit has a 3-5 cup small batch setting for fast and efficient brewing of smaller quantities (another must-have for me). Perhaps most importantly, the unit brews very satisfactorily hot coffee, unlike the Grind & Brew, which I found luke warm (less than 170F). The thermal carafe does an excellent job of keeping unused coffee hot, particularly when you pre-heat it with hot water. My only criticism would be that the fill-level is inconveniently positioned and somewhat hard to read. All in all, I'm very pleased with every aspect of the MT500.

The reviews of this coffee maker were great so I purchased the product. I have used the Capresso for several weeks. This coffee maker far exceeds my expectations. The Capresso makes a great pot of coffee in 6 minutes or less. It is easy to pour, looks great on the counter, and the pot keeps the coffee warm for about 2 hours. I would highly recommend the Capresso to coffee lovers.

I believe it heats the water to a higher degree than the others, resulting in a really robust cup of coffee. The carafe also keeps the coffee hot for several hours - and it's a great design (no drips).

I can actually taste the essence of the beans without having to add cream, sweetner, etc. For the first time, I'm enjoying black coffee and the coffee is nice and hot. By far the best coffee maker on the market.
