Made by Newco, Model AKH-3TC.

This thing is more of a "coffee kiosk" than a coffee machine. Features an instant-on heat pump system that doesn't require a water holding tank and delivers exactly the amount of water you pour into it. Consistently great coffee every time with no recovery between brewing, letting you fill carafe after carafe easily and quickly.

Includes three 1.9L 12-cup double walled stainless steel thermal carafes, which keep brewed coffee piping hot and ready to go for hours without the need for a heat plate (which gives your coffee that nasty burnt flavor over time). Since the carafes don't require active heating and the system only uses its heater when actually brewing, this machine gives huge power consumption benefits compared to a standard coffeemaker. Ideal for an office, waiting room, commercial use, or even a home if you really like your coffee!





It is used but you'd barely be able to tell . . . everything including the inside of the carafes is spotlessly clean and in perfect condition. Ready to plug up and brew some brew. Since you have three carafes to work with you can have a nice hot pot of three kinds of coffee or tea ready to go. Super easy to use, maintain and clean and with the ability to brew 4 gallons of coffee an hour you'll never run out.

Asking $200

They retail for $600+ so I figure that's fair, but feel free to make offers.

Can you alter the output temperature of the water? If not, what's the default?

Snewf: 120V, 1775W. About standard for a coffeemaker, and it only draws when actively brewing. My kitchen has no problems running it and this house is old, so it shouldn't have issues with breakers/etc.

darkone: I don't see an adjustment for it, using a cheapo probe thermometer the water reads around 200F or so.

darkone: after a bit more research the Newco AKH series uses a high level thermostat that automatically keeps the output at an "optimal level" for flavor extraction that is predetermined, irregardless of the temperature of the water you put in. Since this is a commercial machine it is a replaceable part, and if you want to really fine tune that value its pretty simple.

Seriously, what are the dimensions of this? I've got extremely limited counter space, and I'd like to know if would fit in the only spot I'd be willing to put it.

Might want to crop your dirty dishes out of the photo. Seems like a nice unit though.
