Overview
Is it a boy? Is it a girl? No, it's a brewer! The long awaited younger sibling of the Bonavita 8-cup coffee maker has arrived in the form of a 5-cup! Featuring everything we love about the 8-cup, but in a compact size, the Bonavite 5-Cup Coffee Maker with Stainless Steel Carafe features a cross-shaped shower head for maximum saturation and the widely sought after pre-infusion mode. Want to savor every toasty sip? Brew directly into the stainless steel carafe and twist on the pour-through lid for maximum heat retention.
