The Viking Professional Coffee Maker is a premium, commercial-grade countertop appliance. Known for its sleek, heavy-duty stainless steel design, it utilizes a precise "Sure-Temp" heating system that pumps carbon-filtered water to brew at the optimum 195°F to 205°F range.
• Sure-Temp Brewing: Heats and regulates water in a separate boiler before pumping it over the grounds, brewing exactly one cup per minute to prevent bitterness.
• Double-Walled Carafe: Keeps your coffee hot and fresh for hours without the need for a scorching hot plate.
• BrewBreak: Allows you to remove the carafe mid-brew to pour a quick cup without dripping.
• Filter Options: Has permanent, dishwasher-safe stainless steel filter, though it is also compatible with standard #4 paper filters.
This Viking model is praised by culinary enthusiasts for maintaining the temperature control typically reserved for professional baristas. Because it lacks a hot plate, the thermal carafe relies entirely on its double-walled insulation, which means you never have to worry about your coffee burning or over-steeping if it sits in the pot for a while.
