Today from across the Boutique floor at Salvation Army, I spotted on a high shelf among the various serving pieces a 10-cup Electromatic with Spice O'Life pattern. It was complete and had its cord, so it was worth the $5.50. I checked inside and found no second dots near the 8 or 10 cup marks which means it's not from the batch that triggered the original recall, otherwise I would have passed on it. Below the 6-cup mark the pot was brown inside. I ran one 10-cup cycle with a couple of tablespoonfuls from my (otherwise useless and therefore sidelined) box of phosphate-free Finish and the brown was <strike>toast</strike> history. The entire interior surface area of the carafe turned from stained and brown to a beautiful sparkling white! Without phosphates!
This is a later series with the smooth sided stainless collar, spring-loaded basket assembly, flush rectangular indicator light and flat lid with textured surface. The thing about the lid that I've not seen before is a solid black center cap on the lid. No clear cap to see the tint of brewing coffee.
Does anyone know when they stopped using the clear ones and switched to black?
