Might I suggest alt.coffee? There you will learn more than you want to
know
about coffee. After reading the stuff there I went out and built myself a
coffee roaster so now I have fresh coffee to drink.

You can also buy an electric kettle. These will boil water faster than a
microwave and that will give you 212 degree water.

I am trying to have 2 questions answered before I need the repair. Please
pardon, my question, if
you feel it is off topic. I have wrote emails to the Vendor and contacted
them by phone for a week,
No return phone call or email.


I just purchased an expensive Cuisinart Grind & Brew Automatic CoffeMaker
with Thermal Carafe, model
DGB-600.

I love very, "HOT" coffee. The directions included say the following:

"Prewarm carafe with hot water to help keep the coffee hotter".

I tried that with normal hot water from the sink and then placed
"filtered
cold water in the coffee
pot. The coffe came out cold. So I know, I need to place hot water inside
the coffe maker.

So my question is this. I have a Hot Water Dispenser in the house, set to
190 degrees. Can I use
this temperature "hot water" directly inside the carafe to keep the
carafe
warm.

Also, can I use the 190 degree hot water to actually make the coffee.

I will be making coffee by using it's "grind the beans" on demand
function.

Thanks much,
