Post subject: Cuisinart DTC-975TC12BSS 12-Cup Stainless Thermal Carafe with lid, Black Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>security_admin (more info?)
I bought this to use at work and have been very happy with it.
Hot beverages will still be warm in the morning - not hot but nicely warm. It's the cold beverages that have amazed me. I've filled it with ice, poured hot conectrated tea over it and had iced tea in the carafe 16 hours later! Summer will be a lot cooler this year!
This has been a great coffee maker, it wasn't easy to have dropped the carafe and broken off the pour spout. Thank goodness replacement carafes are available. This one came with the lid (most places require purchase of each piece individually) and the price was the best available.
Many coffee makers will brew 12 cups, and many stainless steel carafes come in 10 cup size, so I looked around until I found this one from Cuisinart.
The high price of the Cuisinart carafe was a little bit of a turn-off, since I could find 10 cup stainless steel versions for about half the price, but I finally gave in when I couldn't find anything else at the time.
Overall, I like the carafe from Cuisinart. It keeps any liquid hot for many, many hours. If I had to pick on one thing about it would be cleaning inside the top since it is where the coffee pours out from. Other than that, what can I say? It's just a stainless steel thermos carafe.
If I can add one little tip to everyone owning or buying a thermos or carafe would be to fill it with hot water and let it set for a few minutes before pouring the coffee. The water will preheat the inside of the unit and will add a little more time towards keeping the liquid hot. Otherwise, pouring hot coffee onto the interior walls of the cold thermos or carafe will slightly reduce the coffee temperature, or time the unit will keep the liquid hot. Some may argue that I may be splitting hairs, but I want to keep the liquid as hot as possible for as long as possible.
One other thing. It's also great for keeping margaritas cold during the hot summer around the pool. Just remember to fill it with really cold ice water before using it.
I would have given it 5 stars if the price had been closer to the mid $20 dollar range.
Excellent product. This was to replace one my daughter dropped on pavement when we were moving.
This is a great product! It keeps your coffee hot for hours without it tasting burnt. It is also fantastic for when entertaining, you want to make a pot of regular and a pot of decaf. The bonus is, if you have the Cuisinart coffee maker, you can make the coffee right into the carafe! However, even if you don't, hours of hot coffee is just one pour away. Simply pour your pot into the thermal carafe and take your time... your coffee will be hot when your ready to drink it.
Brushed stainless steel & white thermal carafe w/ dripless pour spout and brew-through lid seals out the air, retaining heat and fresh brewed flavor for up to 6 hours. Dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
