Digital programmable timer with 2-hour auto shut-off Just set the timer the night before so you can wake up to the smell of fresh-brewed coffee…every morning! And the coffee make automatically shuts off after two hours. Shower head design Helps to extract your coffees full natural flavor by allowing water to completely saturate all coffee grounds. Aroma button actives a unique brewing process that enhances the flavor and aroma of your coffee. To achieve this full-bodied flavor the coffee maker advances through several continuous cycles. During the cycles water is released into the filter basket in 30-second intervals. This special time-released process saturates grounds a little at a time to extract the best flavor and aroma from your coffee. Swing-away filter basket with gold-tone filter Swing open the filter basket for quick removal of the permanent gold-tone filter. Pause and serve function allows you to interrupt the brewing cycle and pour a cup of coffee. Non-stick warming plate Keeps coffee hot after brewing is complete and makes cleanup a breeze. Water level indicator lets you know how much water is left in the unit so you never run out of coffee unexpectedly. Cord storage Keeps power cord out of harms way when coffee maker is not in use.
