Motif Essential Pour-Over Style Coffee Brewer w/Glass Carafe (OPEN BOX - IN STORE PURCHASE ONLY - CUSTOMER RETURN)

Details:

• Classic design: The Essential brewer's sleek, easy to operate design fits elegantly on any kitchen counter.
• Ideal brewing temperature ensures optimal coffee extraction: follows industry-recognized ideal brewing standards for excellence. Brewing temperature is reached within 60 seconds before coming in contact with the ground coffee, then is maintained between 198ºF to 205ºF throughout the brewing cycle for optimal coffee flavor extraction.
• Pre-infusion mode reveals each coffee’s unique characteristics: Our pre-infusion mode simulates the manual Pour-Over Method. During this critical step, the shower head precisely dampens the coffee grounds for 20 seconds. This then triggers the “blooming” process during which gasses are released from the grounds allowing them to absorb the water, which in turn initiates the flavor extraction process. The water flow pauses for 30 seconds to enable the coffee to fully bloom bringing out the unique flavor characteristics of your coffee. The showerhead is then reactivated and the brew cycle is completed.
• Advanced decalcification sensor indicates when brewer needs cleaning: The Motif decalcification notification is based on the actual performance of your brewer rather than on a pre-set number of brew cycles. The brewer measures the amount of power required to heat and pump the water used. As calcium builds up the amount of power increases. The brewer monitors that power measurement so we can let you know precisely when decalcification is needed.
• Dual heater system maintains perfect temperature: Designed the brewer with separate heaters for brewing and warming. This allows rapid coffee brewing but keeps your coffee warm without overheating. Brewer uses 1525 watts; warming plate uses 60 watts.
• Brewing standards:
  • Must heat water to the ideal brewing temperature of 198º F to 205º F within 60 seconds and maintain that temperature throughout the brewing cycle.
  • Water/coffee contact must be sustained for 4 – 8 minutes to ensure optimal flavor extraction
  • Required to pass multiple brew cycle tests to ensure consistency of brewing performance and flavor extraction from the first cup to the last.
