Russell Hobbs®  Filter Coffee Maker 
 

Having said that, because of its very compact design, it is hard to fill up the water tank with the jug without spilling.

The water thank lid only opens 90 degrees with extremely narrow opening to fill it.

You might need to use a small funnel, it works!

When new this filter coffee maker may have a strong smell of plastic, to eliminate it you could use a bicarbonate of soda solution. We suggest you consult the manufacturer for this.

Another aspect that you should be careful with is the very thin glass on the carafe.

The non-drip valve is also extremely useful, as it prevents coffee from dripping onto the hotplate whilst the carafe is removed. For your convenience a water level indicator is located on the side of the machine for precise filling and also has an auto shut-off feature, which switches the machine off two hours after brewing has finished.

The Cafe Torino by Russell Hobbs Filter Coffee Maker will make 8-10 cups of delicious filter coffee at a time.

Coffee Freshness

The fully programmable digital timer, conveniently allows you to program the coffee maker to switch on up to 24 hours in advance, perfect for waking up to the warm aroma of freshly brewed coffee or when you arrive home at the end of the day.
