Many models include a Brew Strength Control that lets you choose Regular or Bold brew settings. They also advertise built-in brewing technology designed to deliver hotter coffee while preserving flavor.
Cuisinart 14-cup machines typically offer 24-hour programmability, an extra-large LCD display, and a user-friendly control panel. Many models also include automatic features such as self-clean and adjustable Auto-Off, plus a 1–4 cup setting for smaller servings.
These machines accept cone-type paper filters and often include or support a permanent screen filter or a gold-tone coffee filter. Some models also list a charcoal water filter for reducing taste and odor issues.
Some 14-cup models list a power rating around 1050 watts and commonly include a power cord about 24 inches long. Check the specific model spec sheet for exact values.
