How to satisfy everyone? This dual coffeemaker has two independent carafes, filter holders, water chambers, and water level indicators so you can simultaneously brew up to 10 large cups of each persons favorite blend. The DuoThek is also great for offering both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee at dinner parties or in a small office.
Krupss special Deep Brew System employs a unique filtering action to enrich the flavor of any ground beans, and a double-walled filter preserves coffee aroma and keeps brewing at the optimum temperature. The controls on this coffeemaker are few and completely idiot-proof. They consist of separate illuminated power switches for each side of the coffeemaker and a button that slows the brewing cycle down when brewing less than three cups (works on the left side of the coffeemaker only). Each of the thermal stainless-steel carafes is double insulated to keep beverages hot for hours and preserve flavor. The carafes include plastic screw-top lids for additional heat retention and have a spout that ensures drip-free pouring from any angle. This coffeemaker uses paper filters and is covered by a limited one-year warranty. –Cristina Vaamonde

Inferior, overpriced coffee maker that should be avoided Although this coffee maker looks like an attractive product, there is one very significant problem that must be remedied in future models: the poor heating. This appliance makes a decent, if unexceptional cup of coffee, but unlike with other Krups models, the temperature cannot be adjusted. Indeed, the owner’s manual only recommends using hotter water at the outset, but that’s also insufficient. Furthermore, once the coffee is brewed, the already lukewarm coffee grows cold rather quickly in the…
Needs inprovement for warmer We love coffee we grind our own coffee and have not found anything as good as this unit we use the copper filters and this helps. Without warming pads the coffee does not stay hot. We are kooking for replacement because this unit is nolonger available
Makes good coffee, convenient and durable Liked it so much the first time, I bought it again. I purchased this coffee pot more than 5 years ago. It had been used everyday, many times a day. It was still working but we decided to buy another just incase. For a family who loves their coffee this is great. You can keep a pot brewing or have caffeinated and decafe or coffee and tea. This especially great if you have company.
