This is the coffee brewer that can be entirely controlled via a smartphone. Coffee connoisseurs can activate the coffee maker from anywhere in the world using WiFi and a free app to program its start time and create custom profiles for brews with consistent richness, temperature, and volume. A built-in altitude monitor uses GPS to identify the location of the brewer and intelligently adjusts the water’s temperature for optimal brewing in high or low elevations. Its unique pulse-brewing system releases water in intermittent waves to thoroughly extract flavor from the grounds and produce a robust coffee without unpleasant bitterness, earning it a Gold Cup award from the Specialty Coffee Association of America. Includes a stainless steel thermal carafe that holds 8 cups/40 oz. of liquid and a goldtone mesh permanent filter. Also accommodates 8-12 cup paper basket style filters. Compatible with Apple iOS 7 or higher and Android 4.0+ or higher. Can also be activated manually without a smartphone. Plugs into AC. 9" L x 9" W x 15 1/4" H. (10 lbs.)
