Zense Alux Thermo

Zense Alux Thermo is a sleek coffee maker with Nordic design and features that make it easy to brew great coffee. The coffee brews directly into a stainless steel thermo jug that keeps it hot for up to 3.5 hours. Zense Alux Thermo offers a premium feel and an outstanding brewing experience. The robust aluminium construction is built to last and helps deliver a perfect cup every time.

Stainless steel thermo jug with two lids

Zense Alux Thermo comes with a stainless steel thermo jug and two lids for optimal heat retention: a brewing lid that minimises heat loss during brewing, and a serving lid designed to keep coffee hot for longer when pouring. The brewing lid can also be used for serving, but it does not retain heat as effectively as the serving lid.

 

Easy refilling with a detachable water tank

The detachable water tank makes it easy to refill with fresh water. With a 1.25-litre capacity and clear dosing recommendations, it’s easy to get the right balance between coffee and water.

High-performance brewing system

The advanced brewing system maintains the correct extraction temperature throughout the process. The water stays at 92–96 °C from the first to the last drop, delivering consistent results and better flavour in the cup.

Drip stop and adjustable flow control

With adjustable flow control, you can tailor the brewing to the amount of coffee you’re making and adjust the flavour profile to your preference. You can also pause brewing when needed using the same control.

Unique pump technology

With our pump technology, the water system is emptied completely after every brew, ensuring your coffee is always brewed with fresh, oxygen-rich water. This guarantees that every cup starts with fresh water, eliminating the stale taste caused by residual water in conventional coffee makers.

With coffee makers that don’t have pump technology, up to 150 ml of water can remain in the system after brewing, which can noticeably affect the taste.

Durable brushed aluminium design

The brushed aluminium design gives a modern look that suits most kitchens. 
At the same time, the durable materials create a solid construction, designed to deliver a consistently great coffee experience day after day.

Cleaning indicator for easy maintenance

When it’s time to clean, the start/stop button will begin to pulse slowly. This makes it easy to keep your coffee maker performing at its best. We offer both cleaning and descaling products for coffee makers.

Approved by the European Coffee Brewing Centre (ECBC)

Zense Alux Thermo is ECBC approved, which includes requirements such as water temperature and contact time. To get maximum flavour, the temperature needs to be correct, and the water must flow through the coffee at the right pace. Small deviations can quickly result in coffee that tastes sour or bitter.

How to use the thermo jug

Place the lid so the arrow points to “Unlock”. Turn to “Lock” to secure the jug. When pouring: turn the lid clockwise until the arrow points to “Lock”, then turn anti-clockwise until the arrow points towards the spout and the dot. Turning to “Lock” first helps create a vacuum for smoother pouring. After pouring, close by turning clockwise until the arrow points back to “Lock”.

Tips for better coffee

• Rinse the paper filter with water before brewing to remove any unwanted taste.
• Use fresh coffee – preferably freshly ground. Ground coffee quickly loses aroma, and grinding just before brewing helps preserve flavour. We have several grinders suitable for filter coffee. See our coffee grinders.
• For even hotter coffee, rinse the jug with hot water before brewing, especially if you brew 0.5 litres or less.
• If the coffee maker hasn’t been used for a while, run a brew cycle with clean water before use.
• Clean the filter holder, jug and lid regularly – coffee residue affects taste.
• Do not use the coffee jug to fill the water tank, as residue can affect taste and quality.
