Cafe C7DGB11ZS1 Specialty 10-Cup Drip Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe in Stainless Steel
The Cafe C7DGB11ZS1 Specialty Drip Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe combines SCA-certified Gold brewing, hot and over-ice preparation, a 10-cup (45 oz) capacity and built-in Wi-Fi with SmartHQ control. Five selections - Gold, Light, Medium, Bold and Ice - let you tailor your coffee, while adjustable brewing temperatures span 185-205 degrees F outside the fixed-temperature Gold setting. Prepare ground coffee for a smaller batch or a full carafe, and use the programmable 24-hour timer to schedule brewing around your morning. A Stainless Steel finish and Brushed Stainless handle color complete this indoor countertop coffee maker.
Key Features
SCA-Certified Gold Brewing
Choose Gold when you want the brewer to coordinate extraction, brewing duration and temperature to Specialty Coffee Association standards. This setting uses a fixed 200 degrees F brewing temperature rather than a user-adjustable value. SCA certification concerns brew quality, supporting balanced, complex flavor without asking you to select every brewing variable yourself.
Hot Coffee, Over Ice and Five Brew Selections
Light, Medium and Bold give you a choice of everyday strengths, while the dedicated Ice selection prepares coffee for a smooth, balanced result over ice without diluted flavor. Alongside Gold, these options let you match preparation to your taste. Use ground coffee and the included scoop, with one scoop per brewing cup recommended for portioning.
10-Cup Glass Carafe for Household Serving
Select a 3-, 5- or 10-cup batch to match the amount you plan to serve. The full 10-cup carafe totals 45 oz; plan servings by that volume when choosing your mugs. Pour a smaller batch for yourself or share coffee from one brew rather than preparing more than you need.
185-205 Degrees F Brew Temperature Control
Brew temperature is another way to shape extraction and flavor clarity, separate from your strength selection. For balanced extraction, the recommended range is 195-205 degrees F within the broader adjustment span. Choose a setting other than Gold when you want to make temperature adjustments yourself.
Delay Brew and SmartHQ Remote Control
Plan a start time with Delay Brew instead of manually starting coffee at that moment. The digital controls include an AM/PM display and programmable timer. Through SmartHQ, built-in Wi-Fi lets you initiate, schedule and personalize a brew remotely, with feedback and alerts to keep you informed. Compatibility includes Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Google Assistant, IFTTT and Nest.
Two-Hour Warming Above 178 Degrees F
The warming plate holds brewed coffee above 178 degrees F for two hours after brewing, giving you a defined serving window for returning to the carafe between pours. That holding temperature is separate from the hotter brewing-temperature range, so you can distinguish extraction control from keeping a finished batch warm.
Reusable Mesh and Carbon Water Filtration
A titanium-plated metal micro-fine-mesh filter provides a reusable option for ground coffee, and the basket also accepts coffee filters. Separate carbon water filtration addresses odor and taste, with one water filter included. Descaling powder is also included for maintenance.
Stainless Steel Styling and Flexible Cord Routing
Pair the Stainless Steel finish and Brushed Stainless handle color with your kitchen's existing accents. An underside channel lets you route the power cord left, right or rear to suit the outlet location. For electrical planning, this indoor countertop brewer is rated at 1500 watts and requires 120V, 60Hz power.
