The benefits of the Aroma­Control Therm coffee maker

Exclusive Flavor Release Technology

- Releases the full aroma of the coffee

through a new brewing innovation:

At the beginning of the brewing cycle, the
‘Flavor Release’ mechanism remains closed so
as to keep the hot water in contact with the
ground coffee for a longer period of time and
thus obtain the maximum flavor from your
coffee.

After about 1 - 2 minutes of brewing, the
coffee is released and flows into the coffee
carafe.

The KRUPS exclusive Flavor Release
Technology thus guarantees you optimal
contact between water and ground coffee
and the ideal time for brewing, particularly for
small quantities.

Thanks to the KRUPS exclusive technology,
your coffee will have a fuller, richer aroma and
a delicious taste.

the coffee maker, the middle of the lid retracts
