Brand: Capresso

Located in: Housewares, Coffee and Tea, Coffee Makers

The only combination machine with a CONICAL BURR GRINDER! Just pour in the beans, program the time AND the amount of coffee to be ground… and CoffeeTEAM S does the rest!

Capresso offers unique coffee makers for the true coffee lover. High quality heating elements assure ideal brewing temperatures of over 200° F during brewing and approx. 180° F coffee temperature in the carafe directly after brewing. All Capresso coffee makers are programmable and come with GoldTone Filters

Product Features

Only the CoffeeTEAM lets you program the amount of coffee you want to grind: choose from 2, 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 back and the brewing process begins.
AM/PM Programmable Clock/Timer lets you set the time when to grind and brew automatically.
The display shows the time, grind and strength settings.
The elegant, illuminated white-on-black display is easy to read.
Charcoal water filter removes up to 83% of chlorine and other impurities.
Electronic filter indicator shows when to replace the charcoal filter.
10-cup (50 oz.) Capacity.
Special setting maintains aroma when brewing only 2 to 4 cups.
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 180° F coffee temperature in glass carafe directly after brewing.
2 Hour Safety Shut-Off will keep the coffee hot for two hours after brewing. Then the heating element will shut off by itself conserving energy and giving you peace of mind. The clock and all programmed settings stay on.
Use 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.
Coated Non-Stick Warming Plate
Easy to clean.

Comments about Capresso CoffeeTEAM-S Automatic Coffee Maker:

We're on our second of these machines. When the first broke after a year (flimsy but critical plastic tab snapped off and couldn't be reattached), I figured it was just bad luck--given the many superlatives others had used in describing this Capresso. Sadly, our second CoffeeTeam machine is now also near its death--its plastic display works only intermittantly and the plastic filter mechanism sometimes fails to swing completely back into place after grinding beans. NOTE: We're definitely not rough with these machines; it's just that they're not all that ruggedly engineered, and the moving plastic parts start to fail over time--in our case, after about a year of daily use. The coffee the Capresso makes is really good, but for the premium price commanded for these units, we expected they would last us a long time; we are thus quite disappointed. Suffice it to say, we won't be purchasing a third Capresso machine, and I can't in good faith recommend it.

Service & Delivery comments:

No problems with delivery, and when I contacted Capresso early on (seeking clarification for some of the machines numerous grind settings), the representatives were very polite and helpful.

All depends on what you like...

Comments about Capresso CoffeeTEAM-S Automatic Coffee Maker:

Some ground coffee beans fail to fall through the chute, and lands on the cover. When the filter basket swings to the brewing cycle, the coffee grounds then gets flung onto the counter. It works great if you have pre-ground coffee beans.
