Cuisinart® has done it again with a redesign of the original Grind & Brew™.  The DGB-600 Thermal features an Italian design with subtle curves that creates a stylish unit for today's gourmet kitchen. Among low cost combination grinder and coffee makers on the market, we would have to say the new Grind & Brew is worthy of your attention. This version of the Grind & Brew is virtually the same as the black and white versions, but this one features a double-wall stainless steel thermal carafe and stainless steel housing (vs. glass carafe and plastic housing).

One important feature that most coffee makers lack is adequate water dispersion over the coffee grounds. The showerhead in the Grind & Brew has been designed so water is evenly dispersed over all of the grounds in the coffee basket. The result is improved flavor and improved temperature of brewed coffee with no wasted coffee grounds.

Built-in Stainless Steel Blade Grinder
The built-in coffee grinder is neatly tucked into the back left corner of the unit. Access is gained by lifting the lid on top. The grinding chamber is protected by a see-through plastic lid. Remove this to pour in your favorite coffee beans. The grinder uses stainless steel cutting blades for precise grinding of the beans. If you wish to use pre-ground coffee, you may disable the automatic feature of the grinder by pressing the grind disable button on the control panel.

Built-in Water Filtration
The anti-chlorine action of the filter will give the coffee a more delicate flavor. Good coffee starts with good water. Each filter lasts for two months or 60 pots, and they are easily replaceable.

Controls
The Grind & Brew coffee maker features a digital clock and timer control that allows for automatic brewing and grinding up to 24 hours in advance. You can program the Grind & Brew to begin grinding your coffee beans and brewing the night before so you can wake up to a wonderful cup of coffee. Simply place your coffee beans into the grinder, put water in the reservoir, and set the timer. The Grind & Brew will take it from there. The timer will automatically turn the coffee maker off as well, and you can program this to occur in one hour increments up to four hours.

1-4 Cup Setting
If you wish to make a smaller pot of coffee between 1-4 cups, the Grind & Brew has a feature that will ensure your coffee tastes as well as a full pot of coffee. Press the "1-4 Cup" button on the control panel and the machine will double heat the small amount of water needed to ensure the coffee is as hot as that expected from a larger pot of coffee.

Convenient Coffee Filter Access
The permanent GoldTone coffee filter can be accessed and removed from the machine by pushing the release lever for the lid located on the left side of the housing. The filter holder is also removable for cleaning. You may use either the GoldTone filter or paper filters.

Brew Pause System
The Grind & Brew allows for removal of the carafe during mid brew for those who just can't wait for the full pot! The filter basket automatically stops the coffee flow when the carafe is removed for up to 30 seconds without it dripping; resuming again once it is replaced.

Accessories
GoldTone permanent coffee basket, water filter, coffee scoop, 10-cup thermal carafe, and an instruction manual.
