Does this model have a heating element under the carafe to keep coffee warm?

Yes, it works quite well ... still very satisfied with the consistently good coffee ... good luck ...

Yes, it keeps the coffee warm but it also has an automatic shut off so you don't mistakenly leave it on too long.

The one I got comes with a Thermal Carafe. It will keep coffee warm for more than 8 hours. The product is great.

Yes it does have a warm plate under the pot. It is the best coffee brewing system for my money.

Yes... A single cup of coffee is hot as the machine pre-warms for about one minute. The carafe does not stay hot if the warmer place is not on as it is a fairly standard glass carafe. If you don't like the use of a warmer, I recommend getting a insulated coffee vacuum carafe. Alfi makes some great ones that keep coffee warm for eight hours or more. However, I have never noticed a burnt taste imparted by the hotplate on this machine.

Coffee makers with thermal carafes have no heating elements under the carafe, so using a carafe on a heating element might damage the carafe... and, may not be good for the heat element, either.

Just the thermal carafe. I replaced it with the glass carafe and am really happy. Great quality machine and coffee tastes excellent. Highly recommend with glass carafe.

Don't know but I can tell you that the carafe never kept the coffee hot for long. I returned the product.

if you are talking about the heating element, it is built in and does not detach. This is my second Presto, the other lasted many years. It stopped perking, however, I ordered a new cord for the old one and now it works fine. I highly recommend this product. Coffee is perfect, stays warm for a long time. However it does not have a timer, so be sure to unplug once coffee is made.

No, only for the burners that the carafes sit on. Once you initialize it, it always has water which it keeps warm 24/7. This allows the unit to make coffee very quickly. If you unplug it, allow about 10 minutes after you plug it back in before making coffee. Pouring water in the top essentially activates the maker.

There is no water that is heated after the coffee is made. The carafe is insulated so it is designed to keep the coffee warm without heating after the coffee is made.

Yes, but a small cone base about 3 in diameter. This is a very nice thermos carafe. I may order another.

Hi No it does not. That is one of the reasons the coffee stays so nice. The thermal does it job, and you have no burnt taste. If you put hot water in the carafe first and keep it in there for a few minutes, it will keep the coffee nice and hot for hours. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you mean by "warming element," but as can be seen from the other answers, this model with the glass carafe (MG600) will keep coffee hot for up to about two hours. The presence of heating is indicated by the on/off button being red; if it turns off and you still want the carafe to be heated, just push the on/off button again.

The coffee maker has a heating element inside it, but I always turn off the coffee maker the second it's done brewing because otherwise the coffee tastes burnt -- terrible. I don't know if you're turning off the machine but if so there's no mechanism for the coffee to stay hot -- the only mechanism is that heating element in the coffee container, which makes the coffee taste bad! Not a good design.

Yes. The heating element isn't adjustable, but it keeps the coffee very warm which is the way I like it. I did a whole lot of research before I made the decision to buy this and don't regret it at all. The only plus would be if it held 12 cups, but it makes coffee so fast that it hasn't been a problem.

yes it does; however, I wasn't happy with the coffee maker. The brewed coffee was only luke warm and never got hot. I sent it back for a refund. If I can help you out further, give me a yell. Bill

No. It doesn't have automatic anything! But there is no heating element so all it does is stay on until you turn it off. It doesn't burn or boil the coffee.
