what material is the inside of the carafe made of?

It's metal but I don't think stainless steel. It's not a thermos. Our old one had a thermos inside and it kept the coffee hot for hours. Sadly they don't make that one any longer which is why we bought this one. It doesn't keep the coffee hot that long but I like that it doesn't have a warmer under the pot. I don't like the way coffee tastes when it "cooks" over the warmer for hours.

Kinda like a thermos. We are a little disappointed in the length of time it keeps the coffee hot. We are not real big coffee drinkers, tho it keeps the coffee kinda hot for a couple of hours. When the pot quits dripping the coffee the heater shuts off. It is okay for our use.

It appears to be a plastic coated metal. The inside does not stain quickly.

I believe this one is stainless steel. The carafe we had with our previous coffee maker from, Black and Decker was lined with what looked to be glass and kept the coffee warm for a long time. In fact we still have that carafe and it works fine even though the coffee maker wore out. That is why we decided to get another one. I am not sure why they changed material.

I don't know, but it is exactly like the carafe I had before and luckily I saved it. I'm not sure what brand it was though. Look at some other brands to see if you can find a similar one. It was a major brand but I know it wasn't Kitchen Aid.

I'm sorry to say, I can't remember. I loved this coffee pot, but had to give up using it after only about 3 months (more than 2 years ago) because I'm a klutz, broke the carafe and could NOT, for the life of me, find a way to buy a replacement carafe!

I would think that the interior material is plastic. The top & sides are made of plastic and the bottom is the heating element and it's metal.

It made of ceramic. Seems like very durable, like in my auto coffee machine.

Carafes are glass. Plastic would not be suitable for the hot plate feature! This unit works very well.

The glass carafe is attached to the metal base. The bottom has electric coils that when placed on the base make connections to heat up the base. I have used this product for over a year and am extremely happy with it.

The inside is totally stainless. This espresso maker has now been used daily for a couple of years. No problems at all

Yes, the interior of the unit is plastic. But the proper care works great. The interior of the carafe is stainless though.

it's stainless steel inside and out. Keeps my coffee hot a LOOOOOOONG time. I'm certain it would keep cold too. Very durable comfortable and easy to use. Dishwasher safe, but I slip the sealing rings off the top/stopper though, and wash them by hand. Much happier with it than I thought I would be.

It is steel inside. I love this thermos, it keeps liquids really hot and the shape is convenient for slipping in to a decent sized briefcase.

I believe stainless steel. It is heavy like metal. It works and is good for the price, but I ended buying a Capresso from Bed Bath & Beyond, which foams soy milk, or reg nonfat milk really well and heats it as well for $50.00 using one of their coupons, always use their coupons for lower prices.

The outside is glass, the strainer inside is clear plastic and the lid is rubber or silicone covered. The inside sipper is plastic. Hope that helps

it is metal of some kind on the faceplate, this pot makes great coffee but the print is very small on the clock and there is no back light, very hard to see and program. it's the first carafe I've had that does not dribble when pouring which is a bonus.

The interior is all plastic, including the filter basket. (Although they do supply a a reusable, metal basket- that I do not use. The carafe is glass with plastic top. The water goes through a paper filter and into the glass carafe - so I guess, technically, the brewed coffee has very little contact with plastic.

The interior is glass. This is a very nice pot. I bought one of them to keep coffee hot and fresh and was very pleased that it kept it hot for the entire day. I liked it so well that I bought another one for hot water for making tea.

At the bottom it's a flat stainless plate, most of the element is covered, except for a small stainless rod that goes up the inside of the carafe near the handle side. I've had it a while now, and I haven't had any problems with it, it works well, easy to clean!
