Technivorm Moccamaster CDGT Coffee Maker
Overview
Is that a space age rocket silo sitting on your countertop? Evolved from Technivorm's original Thermal CDT model, the CDGT introduces a few upgrades to make your already delicious coffee even better. Changes include improvements to the filter basket, basket bracket, and a clean ridged finish to the side of the water tower. If you've only experienced coffee with the CDT before, now you'll be able to remove the carafe and see an automatic shut-off to your coffee flow. Made for ease of use and simplicity, the CDGT can be relied on to brew a deliciously hot pot of coffee, year after year.
Features and Functionality
- Mid-Brew Interrupt: The CDGT will automatically detect when the carafe is removed, and will temporarily stop its stream of coffee. However, this model does not come equipped with the capacity to make only a half pot! Click here to check out the KBT741 if that sounds like an option you would like to have.
- Brewing Temperature: Brewing temperature between 198-205F and holding temperature between 176-185F meeting the requirements of the ECBC/SCAE/SCAA
- Even Extraction - Designed to evenly spread water over your coffee grounds for skillfully balanced flavors. This efficient brewing cycle is completed in five to six minutes.
- Durable and Replaceable Parts - Built with a copper boiler, backed by a five year warranty, and sold alongside easily replaceable parts so that your machine can be maintained for years to come.
- Easy Filter Options - Uses #4 filters, made accessible through the reusable Swiss Gold cone filter or disposable paper filters
- Thermal Carafe - Includes a thermal carafe that keeps the coffee fresh and hot. Indicator light shows when the carafe is in correct position to start brew cycle. Includes the brew through lid and the closed top travel lid.

How Does it Compare? | The Technivorm Moccamaster CDGT is most similar to Technivorm's newer model, the Moccamaster KBT741. These two brewers feature uniquely styled exterior designs, and the KBT741 comes with the ability to brew half a pot at a time. Otherwise these two brewers are almost identical! A Note About Coffee & CupsLet us break it down for you: Although 8 ounces equals a cup in the baking world, a US cup of coffee is measured at 6 ounces and a European cup of coffee is measured at 4.25 ounces. This is why we sometimes list ounces to paint a more accurate picture of capacity. |
Tips and Tricks | Water really does make a difference. Always use filtered water to make drip coffee taste better. |
