This coffeemaker features a 10-cup capacity for large groups and a double-walled thermal carafe that helps maintain the coffee's temperature. The pause-and-serve function allows you to enjoy a cup of coffee before a full pot is brewed.
This is our second DeLonghi coffee maker. The first one was a 12 cup glass carafe model which we have kept for a backup/additional pot. This new one makes great coffee but does not keep it hot enough. The hot plate shuts off when the coffee stops brewing. We have reverted to using an additional hot plate to try and keep the pot hot or just drink our coffee a little faster than usual.
