Thanks to Ratio Six, world-class coffee is more accessible than ever. Engineered with the brewing precision of the Ratio Eight, the Six offers the one-button convenience of its bigger sibling with a leaner form and lighter price. Modern Quality: Simplify your coffee routine with the touch of a button. The Ratio Six’s Bloom, Brew, and Ready phases run in sequence, delivering a perfect (and easy) cup of coffee every time. Utilizing a die-cast aluminum heating element, water flows evenly through the stainless steel shower head and over the grounds at the ideal extraction temperature. Unique Heat Shield: The unique Ratio Six heat shield completely surrounds the shower head during brewing, increasing the extraction of your coffee and producing a very hot cup of coffee, all while keeping within the industry-accepted standards for coffee brewing. The coffee is typically just shy of 200 degrees F at the end of the brew cycle. For those who prefer their coffee really hot or add lots of milk or cream, the heat shield is a great brewing accessory. Prefer a more open brewing style? You can simply pull on the silicone heat shield to remove it from the lid, and it can be easily reconnected.
