Technivorm...simple yet elegant ! And not made in China !
I researched several coffee brewers before purchasing this Netherlands made KB-741. I wish it was American made,but I was happy to find a completely hand made product from our European friends. Frankly,I'm sick & tired of being forced to purchase almost EVERYTHING from China ! Guess i'm old fashioned.I like handmade ! Now,having gotten my rant out of the way,on to my review. Been using this products about 5 weeks now. It brews an excellent cup of coffee. Just like the other reviews i've read it brews HOT ! It's fast and since all the usable parts are removable,it's easy to clean. One slight surprise I found out about the coffee carafe is that the coffee does not get get bitter leaving it on the hotplate. And leaving it on HIGH at that. Wow ! My old coffee brewer caused the coffee to get bitter after about 15 minutes. I believe it has to do with Technivorm's carafe design. Whatever it is it works ! My usual way of serving brewed coffee is to pour it in preheated thermal insulated...

finally, I got the best coffee brewer
I have had many coffee brewers over the years, and have tried and returned others, including Capresso, Bunn, Braun,& Cuisinart. I like strong coffee. The issue is that the finer the grind and larger the amount of ground beans used the stronger the coffee BUT the higher the chance that the basket will overflow. This brewer has a setting for the opening at the bottom of the brew basket: closed, open, or 1/2 open. [Note: all Technivorm models do not have this feature]. Using 1/2 open slows the dripping and produces stronger coffee. You sacrifice automatic "drip stop" but can use the feature manually. I use a 75% full basket of ground beans at a fineness setting on the border of "drip filter" and "espresso" with the basket opening set to 1/2 and I get very strong coffee. The other features of this machine are simple, sturdy and based on research for the best brew. You sacrifice an auto start clock and timer for the hot plate. The heating element is twice as powerful as any other...

Dont buy anything else. The full copper heating element and the wattage used is what sets this apart from others and this company was brewing at 200+ degrees at the brew head before all others. This is an example of you get what you pay for. The Dutch retro styling could certainly use a version that has a more modern look was my only critic thought. Been using these for 6 years and just bought a new one.
