DISCONTINUED

The Capresso Coffee Team S replaces the popular Coffee Team Luxe with some cosmetic upgrades and the same great operation that made these coffee makers instant classics. The Coffee TEAM is the only combination machine with a CONICAL BURR GRINDER! Just pour in the beans, program the time AND the amount of coffee to be ground… and CoffeeTEAM S does the rest! Other grind and brew coffee makers on the market use an inferior blade grinder. The conical burr grinder used in the Coffee TEAM S gives a more even grind, less mess and the bean hopper can be filled and the coffee maker programmed to grind and brew just the right amount of coffee.

Feature and Benefits: (Please note: the videos show the #453; technical features are identical.)

• Only the CoffeeTEAM lets you program the amount of coffee you want to grind: choose from 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 cups and select mild, regular or strong. You can even program two completely different settings, one for manual operation and one for automatic operation. This way you always enjoy exactly the same coffee taste.
• The CoffeeTEAM uses solid steel conical burrs (see Gallery), the same as found in our fully automatic coffee centers. The slow grinding of the burrs imparts minimal heat preserving more aroma than blade grinding. It also allows a finer and more uniform grind than combination machines with a blade grinder.
• Four fineness settings for light to dark beans let you adjust the grinder to your preferred beans (the lighter the bean, the finer the setting).
• Grinding and brewing are separated, keeping moisture away from the grinder. The CoffeeTEAM grinds the programmed amount of beans directly into the filter. Then the filter automatically swings back and the brewing process begins (see Gallery and Video "Grinding").
• AM/PM Programmable Clock/Timer lets you set the time when to grind and brew automatically.
• The display shows the time, grind and strength settings (see Gallery).
• The elegant, illuminated white-on-black display is easy to read.
• The red backlit display makes it easier to see the information in the dark or underneath kitchen cabinets.
• Charcoal water filter removes up to 83% of chlorine and other impurities.
• Electronic filter indicator shows when to replace the charcoal filter.
• 10-cup (50 oz.) Capacity.
• Special setting maintains aroma when brewing only 2 to 4 cups.
• GoldTone Filter (size 4, conical) included. The conical shape is ideal for extracting maximum flavor. The CoffeeTEAM can also be used with size 4 filter paper.
• Over 200° F brew and 180° F coffee temperature in glass carafe directly after brewing.
• 2 Hour Safety Shut-Off will keep the coffee hot for two hours after brewing. Then the heating element will shut off by itself conserving energy and giving you peace of mind. The clock and all programmed settings stay on.
• Use pre-ground coffee (without grinder) in case another kind of coffee is required (i.e. decaf or coated/flavored coffee; see Gallery).
• Stop-and-Serve lets you remove the carafe while brewing to serve a quick cup.
• Coated Non-Stick Warming Plate
• Easy to clean (see video "Cleaning").

How Things Work:

Electronic Charcoal Filter Indicator
An internal counter registers how often you turn the coffee maker on. It assumes that it makes a pot of coffee each time the machine is turned on. After 60 pots of coffee the green indicator light starts blinking. Replace the charcoal filter and push and hold the filter button until the green light stops blinking and stays illuminated. TIP: Once the charcoal filter is wet, certain cleaning agents will diminish over time. Replace the charcoal filter at least every six weeks or when the indicator light blinks, whichever comes first. If you don’t use the charcoal system, push the filter button and the green light will turn off.

Programming the Right Amount of Coffee
You can get almost any strength of coffee from your CoffeeTEAM grind and brew coffee maker. Maximum coffee will be ground in choosing "10" and the "dark" cup and setting the fineness to the large dot. When filling the water container with 50 oz. (10 cups) of coffee it will give you a strong coffee. If you prefer an even stronger coffee, fill only 7 or 8 cups of water (35 to 40 oz.) into the water tank. If you prefer a very mild coffee set the grinder one or two levels below the amount of coffee you want to brew, e.g. set the grinder to "6" and fill the water tank with 8 or 10 cups (40 to 50 oz.).
