Comparison with the Glass Version
- The Thermal version uses a double-walled stainless carafe instead of a glass one with a warming plate, eliminating the need for external heat and preventing bitterness over time.
- Performance and speed are identical to the Glass version (~3 min 15 s for a full 60 oz brew).
- Both versions support the same filters and programmable settings.
