Description: This 12 cup (60 ounce) capacity drip coffee maker features complete frontal access allowing you to easily fill the water tank and ground coffee filter without moving the unit. A unique brewing process enhances the flavor and aroma of your coffee. During several continuous cycles, water is released into the filter basket in 30-second intervals which saturate the coffee grounds a little at a time to extract the best flavor and aroma. The 24-hour programmable digital timer allows set-ahead brewing time, and safety is assured with a two-hour automatic shut-off after brewing is completed. The water level indicator lets you know when the unit needs refilling. The durable and long-lasting permanent gold-tone filter is specially designed to keep even the finest grounds out of your coffee. The pause and serve function allows you to interrupt the brewing cycle and pour a cup of coffee. For warm, ready-to-use cups, the unit has a cup storage tray, and the non-stick warming plate makes clean-up easy. Cord storage lets you store the unit neatly when not in use.
