JavaSpa Showerhead |
 |
Together with the flat-bottom brew basket, the JavaSpa showerhead consistently extracts a flavorful brew. The full water dispersion effect of the showerhead evenly soaks the ground coffee waiting in the brew basket, and as a result, you will get a uniform coffee extraction. An even spray of hot water translates to aromatic coffee with each brew. |
 |
Control Pad & Display |
 |
Located at the center of the brushed stainless steel front panel, the control pad simplifies your coffee-making routine, and the display gives you the information you need at first glance.
Use the control panel to set the clock and program the automatic brew timer so that your coffee is hot and fresh for you first thing in the morning. The Clean Touch Control Pad is spill-safe and keeps a clean appearance.
And although you can make up to 14 cups with this KitchenAid machine, there are days when you may want a much smaller amount. On these occasions, use the special 1-4 cup brew cycle setting on the control pad to adjust the brewing cycle for less coffee, which will help to ensure that you get maximum flavor when brewing fewer servings.
An uncommon feature found on this KitchenAid coffee maker is its “Time Since Brew” indicator, which shows how long ago the last pot of coffee was brewed (in 30-minute increments). This feature is useful in households with many coffee drinkers, as you may want to know when the last pot was brewed. Below the time display, the cleaning indicator tells you when maintenance and descaling should be performed. |

1100-watt Heat Pump |
 |
Brewing the most flavorful coffee requires optimal temperature. The KitchenAid 14-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker has a powerful 1100-watt heat pump to heat the water to the right temperature so you get the most flavor and aroma from your favorite coffee brands. |
 |
Advanced Water Filtration |
 |
Better tasting water produces better tasting coffee. Use the included ion-exchange water filter to soften hard water and minimize the amount of chlorine and other contaminates that can alter the aroma and flavor of your coffee. Replacing the ion-exchange water filter about every 3 months will keep this advanced water filtration system working properly and extend the life of your investment. |
 |
Gold Tone Filter and Flat-bottom Brew Basket |
 |
This coffee maker contains a flat-bottom gold tone filter specially designed for the brew basket. This high-performance filter eliminates the need for paper filters, reducing waste and saving you money in the long run. Because the bottom of this unique, dishwasher-safe brew basket is flat, the coffee is evenly extracted. You can also use paper filters if preferred, as the machine is compatible with 10-12 cup, flat-bottom paper filters. |
 |
Pause and Pour |
 |
Sometimes you just can’t wait for that first steaming cup of coffee from a fresh pot. The pause and pour feature of this KitchenAid coffee maker stops the coffee flow if you remove the carafe during brewing. A valve on the brew basket creates a tight seal, eliminating drips from the brew basket while you pour that first batch into your coffee mug. |
 |
Split-lid Design |
 |
Finding room for a large-capacity coffee maker can be difficult for some kitchen layouts. This KitchenAid 14-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker saves space with a split lid to provide easy access to the coffee filter and water reservoir. Access the back of the coffee maker by flipping up the back lid and adding water, or open the front lid and pour your water into the reservoir fill channel. |
 |
Minimal Cleaning for Maximum Life |
 |
Simple routine cleaning will keep your KitchenAid Programmable Coffee Maker producing the freshest, most aromatic coffee. Clean the dishwasher-safe carafe and brew basket daily to remove the coffee oils that can build up and alter the coffee’s flavor.
When it’s time to descale, the “Cleaning Needed Indicator” on the control pad illuminates. Descaling eliminates calcium and mineral deposits inside your brewing components. When performed every few months, descaling can extend the life of your coffee maker and keep coffee tasting its freshest. |
