Cold Brew Coffee Maker

Hot water and Thermal Coffee Makers?

I used to have a Gevalia thermal coffee maker and it died. Started leaking water all over the counter while brewing. I decided to get a new one bought a DeLonghi thermal coffee maker. I am so far please with how it works except the coffee doesn’t get hot enough. I read the instruction booklet and didn’t see anything restricting using hot water to brew instead of cold water. Would it do any damage to use hot water? Would my coffee get hotter?
I tried rinsing the carafe with hot water and it helped a little. I don’t want to send it back for fear any other maker would be the same. I just want great tasting HOT coffee…Any other suggestions?

Never use hot water for auto machines. It spent too much time in the home water heater picking up rust, lime, and other minerals that will build up in your machine.

Many coffee makers don’t get hot enough. If that’s the problem, you may need to replace it.

If your problem is that it looses heat after brewing, you can preheat your thermal carafe by filling it with hot water for a few minutes before brewing. When hot hits cold, it cools instantly; heating the carafe will keep your coffee hot longer. This is also good for a Thermos.
