Review on Cuisinart DCC-3200P1 Perfectemp 14-Cup Programmable 🏺 Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe in Stainless Steel by Shannon Davis

This drip coffee maker is great! I bought this to replace my 10 year old DCC-1200. Cuisinart seems to have made all the necessary improvements, but most importantly they have improved the temperature of the brewing water and the temperature of the carafe heater. They also improved the hot water shower head and made it bigger so that more of the earth's surface gets wet. Thanks to this, you will get a great cup of coffee! Now you can also control the automatic switch-off time and switch off the coffee ready acoustic signal. They added a "fat" button to slow down the brewing process when you want a stronger cup. They added a side sight tube so you can see the water level in the tank from the side. As a computer scientist and coffee connoisseur, I know that the temperature of the brewing water is crucial. I did a water temperature comparison between two Cuisinarts and here are the results.
