Customer Reviews of Saeco TDCM-CC Renaissance 8-Cup Digital Drip Coffeemaker, Black
Customer Rating:   Summary: Great coffee machine Comment: This is a great coffee machine. Makes great coffee and keeps it hot. The container is insulated, a bit heavy, but works well. The overall look of the coffee machine is great and stylish. Customer Rating: Summary: Flimsy Parts Comment: The lid on the carafe of this machine broke on us after only eight months. Compare this to cheaper machines we previously had for years. A new carafe is $60 - more than most run of the mill machines which will last longer (and more than the Consumer Reports recommended Best Buy, which is Black and Decker). Will not purchase Saeco again. Rip off. Customer Rating: Summary: Good idea but still doesn't avoid "thermos" flavor Comment: I have great confidence in Saeco products; we've had one of Saeco's automatic espresso machines for years. I liked the idea of a pot that keeps coffee hot without burning the flavor. Unfortunately, while it keeps the coffee fairly hot and avoids the burned coffee problem, it slightly changes the flavor and making it taste faintly like a thermos. This is true of every other thermal coffee pot I've tried, but I had hoped with the usual quality of Saeco products, that they had found a solution. It's not awful, but if you're very picky about your coffee's flavor, this may disappoint. It's a pretty machine, although the water filling is a bit awkward. It takes a basket rather than cone filter which I think detract from the flavor as well. But the deal breaker is the change to the coffee's taste from being made/stored in a thermal container. More Reviews Enjoy American Drip Coffee when you want and with style. Top loading filter basket with removable internal basket for easy coffee loading and removal. Allows you to pour a cup of coffee while the coffeemaker is still brewing. Thermal insulated stainless steel and ceramic carafe keeps 40 oz. of coffee hot for 5 hours. The digital display with blue LED light allows for simple programming of the automatic timer function. 
Choosing Appliance -> Taps Dual-flow mixers provide independent hot, cold or mixed water after leaving the end of the spout. They can be deck-mounted on the sink or pillar/bridge-mounted for a more traditional look. Alternatively, choose a monobloc tap, which is a single-hole fitting that usually has two handles for hot and cold water supply. Choosing Appliance -> Convection Ovens Convection ovens allow you to bake more foods (cookies, muffins, etc.) at once with even browning, but without the need to shift and rotate pans. A convection oven is the same as a conventional oven except a fan is installed in the back interior of the oven. The fan is used to blow and force the heat to circulate in the oven and around the food, thus eliminating the need to rotate and shift pans. In reality, though, even with the most expensive convection ovens, you will still need to rotate your foods, because there will always exist still hot spots in the cavity, because the cavity is small. Don't compare home convection ovens with most commercial convection ovens used by bakers and small food manufacturers, because their commercial ovens are much larger than home ovens and commercial ovens don't have any hot spots and therefore, there's no need to shift and rotate pans.

Kitchen tips -> Cooking burgers When cooking burgers, create a small hole, about ? inch wide, in the center of the burger before cooking it. The hole allows the burger to cook from the inside and outside, producing a more evenly cooked burger |
