I ordered one of these the other day from Ebay. Other than shot seals, my C30 Coffeemasters are in mint condition. We can't wait for it to arrive!
I love that rumble, shake and boil sound. It sounds like a volcano! We start the pot, go back to bed for a few minutes and when we hear the sounds the Coffeemaster makes we know coffee is ready. We can even hear the "SNAP!" noise the switch makes when it moves from Hi to Lo.
Back in the day when these were new, I imagine that the consumer didn't have the quality of coffee we do today. I imagine if they did we'd still be seeing more vacuum pots out there today.

I love my C-master coffee!!
Whirlcool you're probably right about the coffee except that my Mom always said she had the best cup of coffee right after WWII and the coffee came from Brazil. She always believed Brazillian coffee was the best.
I have not had the opportunity to drink it though, anyone here drink Brazillian?
Mix - nice copper kitchen aid!
I love those little elephant feet on the C-20s!

Why not make an adapter?
Designers create face seal adapters all the time.
Cut a 300cres, teflon or rulon ring the shape of the old molded gasket seal. Then cut oring lands into it for a pair of standard sized orings on the sealing faces?
Is there something peculiar about the seal geometry that would negate this sort of design?

We received our new seal in the mail today. It doesn't look like an easy job to remove the old one. The instructions indicated that it would be best to take it to a small appliance repair center for installation. I could just see that. They wouldn't know what to do with it.
It gives alternate instructions to use an "nylon strap wrench" to remove the old filter with a dowel. What is a "nylon strap wrench?" Where do I obtain one of these?
Has anyone installed one of these yet? How hard was it?

I figured it out. I put the top half in the dishwasher on sanitize when we went to bed. In the morning the top was still somewhat warm. I gave the old seal a sudden twist, and off it came! The center washer was pretty easy to put in as the new gasket is pretty pliable.
Tested it out! It works perfectly!
