Description

Donated by The Wilkinson Company -- Capresso Coffee Maker/Grinder Combination Model #455 

CAPRESSO COFFEE SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN FEATURED ON "THE SOPRANOS" AND "BOSTON LEGAL"!

The only combination machine with a CONICAL BURR GRINDER and a stainless steel Thermal Carafe. Just pour in the beans, program the time AND the amount of coffee to be ground… and CoffeeTEAM does the rest and keeps your coffee hot for hours without reheating!

Feature and Benefits:

  • The completely new CoffeeTEAM Therm features a stainless steel thermal carafe to keep your coffee perfectly hot for hours, without reheating. Stainless steel accents throughout the machine and a simple one-button programming design make this the most sophisticated Coffee Maker / Burr Grinder combination on the market.
  • Only the CoffeeTEAM lets you program the amount of coffee you want to grind: choose from 4, 6, 8 or 10 cups and select mild, regular or strong. You can even program two completely different settings, one for manual operation and one for automatic operation. This way you always enjoy exactly the same coffee taste.
  • The CoffeeTEAM uses solid steel conical burrs, the same as found in our fully automatic coffee centers. The slow grinding of the burrs imparts minimal heat preserving more aroma than blade grinding. It also allows a finer and more uniform grind than combination machines with a blade grinder.
  • Four fineness settings for light to dark beans let you adjust the grinder to your preferred beans (the lighter the bean, the finer the setting).
  • Grinding and brewing are separated, keeping moisture away from the grinder. The CoffeeTEAM grinds the programmed amount of beans directly into the filter. Then the filter automatically swings forward and the brewing process begins. The coffee enters the carafe through the closed lid. For serving just turn the lid’s dot to the pouring spout. After serving close the lid again to preserve temperature and aroma.
  • The bean container holds up to 80 grams of coffee. Detachable see-through cover lets you check the flow of the ground coffee and makes is extremely easy to clean the grinder channel.
  • A special filter cover lid keeps the statically charged ground coffee inside the filter holder.
  • AM/PM Programmable Clock/Timer lets you set the time when to grind and brew automatically.
  • The display shows the time, the strength setting and for how many cups the grinder is programmed.
  • The elegant, illuminated black-on-white display is easy to read.
  • 10-cup (47 oz.) capacity.
  • GoldTone Filter (size 4, conical) included. The conical shape is ideal for extracting maximum flavor. The CoffeeTEAM can also be used with size 4 filter paper.
  • Over 200° F brew and up tp 180° F coffee temperature in the thermal carafe directly after brewing.
  • Use the CoffeeTEAM Therm like a regular drip coffee maker with pre-ground coffee (without grinder) in case another kind of coffee is required (i.e. decaf or coated/flavored coffee).
  • Stop-and-Serve lets you remove the carafe while brewing to serve a quick cup.
