The CDT Grand’s 60-ounce capacity makes it perfect for small offices, cafés, and home entertaining. We use a flat-bottom brew basket to achieve this volume, and we recommend always brewing the full amount to achieve the best results. Our double-walled, stainless steel thermal carafe will keep coffee hot for up to an hour - or even longer with the included travel lid.
We have had it for only a few days and do not have any complaints but have a question. The instructions say not to use ROor distilled water. The city water here in College Station TX has a high sodium content consequently makes terrible coffee. We use RO water from a local supplier. We had the smaller unit and used this water. When we moved from GG(treated river water) we have been using the RO for about three years with no ill effects.
Our only other alternative is bottled spring water,expensive and makes so much plastic waste.apAny comments or suggestion s?. Sharon. College Station, TX. Sat Jan 02 2021
