Breville Precision Brewer Coffee Maker – Thermal Carafe
Plain-jane drip brewers beware, the Breville Precision Brewer promises an extended featureset more robust than any brewer on the market. The Precision Brewer starts with a dedicated Gold Cup setting that meets all standards for SCAA certification, including a brew temperature between 198 and 204°, a total brew time under 8 minutes, and an even wetting of the coffee bed. Other dedicated drip brew modes include ‘fast’ for a quicker brew that raises flow rate, and ‘strong’ which lowers it. You also get a ‘My Brew’ setting that gives you direct control over bloom time, flow rate and temperature. Each mode accepts brew sizes between 8 and 60 ounces, and lets you adjust for #4 cone or regular flat bottom filters (or the included goldtone reusable basket filter). This extra-flexible basket design also opens up brew options not usually possible in regular drip brewers, including automatic cold brewing, over-ice brewing, and settings for automatic pour overs with a V60 or Melitta in place of the drip basket. If you’re a lover of multiple brew methods, the Precision Brewer’s multi-use design is sure to impress.
