We currently have a cuisinart $90 version that keeps the coffee hot in an insulated carafe so there's no burner to deal with but 2 members can kill the pot in under 20 minutes so I need a lot more volume it seems. Is anyone using the commercial maker that drips directly in to one of the big air pots?
