Wilbur Curtis has developed the FreshTrac™ digital
freshness indicator, a way to keep
decanters ready to serve freshly brewed coffee. The FreshTrac™ digital
freshness indicator, available only on Curtis Alpha™ GT brewers, utilizes
a flashing, visual indicator that tracks the freshness of coffee right from
the point of brewing. It alerts the operator when coffee is no longer at
its peak of freshness and a new brew is needed.
FreshTrac starts timing at the moment the brew cycle begins.
Freshness settings, which can range from 10 to 120 minutes, are
transmitted to the FreshTrac receiver that snaps on to any
Curtis decanter handle. Once the desired freshness time has expired,
the FreshTrac indicator will begin flashing red every five seconds until
a new pot of coffee is brewed. Fully automatic and dishwasher safe,
FreshTrac’s silent, visual alarm provides a simple, intuitive way to track
coffee’s freshness.
