Hello Lisa! If you don't drink your coffee right away, we recommend checking out our Ratio Eight Thermal Carafe - it will extend the drinking time to 90 min or so (depending on how hot you like your coffee).
Hope this helps!
“My Ratio 8 brews a great cup of coffee. I read coffee maker reviews for a year before ordering the Ratio, and I am delighted with my purchase. I am delighted first because it brews a superior cup of coffee and second because it is a beautiful machine. I must add a third reason for being delighted; the ordering process, attentive customer service, and speed of delivery showed me that this company cares about their products and customers.”
“We unwrapped the Ratio Eight and fired it up for an automated pour-over. Delighted to tell you that it worked just as you advertised! On the second try we adjusted the grinder from 32 (for our French Press) to the suggested setting 20 (Baratza Virtuoso) and had a superb cup of coffee with single origin beans from Ethiopia. This Ratio Eight is exactly what I had hoped for: Ease of use, pour-over quality, and stunning work of art. We use boiling water to pre-heat the glass carafe, the coffee cups, and wet the filter paper. Result is delicious hot gourmet coffee every time in just a few minutes. The plunging days of Es-Pro french press are over..long live Ratio Eight!”
“After waiting several weeks for my Ratio 8, I finally received it and used it this morning. The coffee is excellent- full bodied and clean BUT very disappointed with how quickly it cools. I made half a carafe and when I went for my second cup, it was too cool to drink. Price for this is too high to have to “hurry” - and I’m not spending an additional amount for a thermal carafe when I can just continue my manual pour over. Returning.”
