ILOU 2B Specification

The ILOU 2B Coffee Maker is an advanced brewing device designed for both efficiency and user-friendly operation. At its core, the coffee maker is equipped with a 1500-watt high-performance heating element, ensuring rapid water heating and consistent brewing temperatures. The unit features a 1.5-liter glass carafe that accommodates up to 12 cups of coffee, making it suitable for both personal and small group settings.

The machine boasts an intuitive digital control panel with an LCD display, allowing for easy programming of the 24-hour auto-brew function. This feature enables users to set specific brewing times, ensuring fresh coffee is ready exactly when needed. The ILOU 2B also includes a pause-and-serve function, allowing users to pour a cup mid-brew without causing spills or interrupting the brewing process.

For enhanced flavor extraction, the ILOU 2B incorporates a bloom cycle, which pre-soaks the coffee grounds to release carbon dioxide before the full brewing process. This results in a richer, more aromatic cup of coffee. The coffee maker is equipped with a reusable stainless steel mesh filter, eliminating the need for paper filters and contributing to environmental sustainability.

Safety features include an automatic shut-off function that powers down the machine after two hours of inactivity, and a boil-dry protection mechanism that prevents operation without water. A sleek, stainless steel exterior ensures the appliance complements modern kitchen aesthetics while providing durability. Compact in design, the ILOU 2B Coffee Maker is ideal for limited counter spaces, making it a versatile choice for coffee enthusiasts seeking both style and substance in their brewing experience.
