The Hamilton Beach® Dispensing Coffee Urn brews coffee and then keeps it hot and ready to pour without overheating or burning. Coffee brewed in the urn tastes great whether it's the first cup served or the last. The urn makes 15-45 cups of coffee and is perfect for serving large crowds, whether you're having a family reunion or a party, and also lets you make less coffee when needed. It's perfect for social gatherings and buffet-style meals. Serving coffee from the urn is easy. Simply press a cup against the easy-press lever for fast, one-hand dispensing into any kind of cup including travel mugs and disposable cups. The water/coffee level window lets you see how much coffee is left in the urn, so you know when it's time to brew a new batch. Clear water level marks inside the urn make it easy to fill, and the ready light lets you know when coffee is ready to serve. The handles stay cool to the touch for comfort, and the lid on the large coffee maker twists to lock in place to eliminate spills. The attractive brushed metal finish looks great with every décor and resists fingerprints.
