Know before you buy
No, this model is designed for use on electric, ceramic, and gas stovetops only. It is not compatible with induction ranges.
No, you must hand wash this coffee maker. Dishwasher detergents can be abrasive and may damage the aluminum finish and internal components over time.
The body is crafted from durable aluminum, while the pressure valve features stainless steel springs and ball bearings to ensure consistent performance and longevity.
The pot comes equipped with high-quality rubber gaskets that create a tight seal. Ensure the gasket is seated correctly and the two halves of the pot are screwed together firmly before placing it on the heat.
The black finish is durable, but to keep it looking its best, avoid using metal scouring pads or harsh chemicals. Simply rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly after each use.
