Gold preset brew time (4 cups): ~5 min · Fast preset brew time (4 cups): ~3 min 40 sec

It's consistent in delivering a delicious, balanced cup of coffee – regardless of setting.

The Breville Precision Brewer is one noisy appliance.

Admittedly, it took me about a week to figure out how everything worked.

Source: breville.com (verified 2026-07-10) · corroborated by wholelattelove.com. The official Breville US page confirms this exact model — "the Breville Precision Brewer® Glass" (BDC400) with a glass carafe, 60 oz capacity, Gold Cup standard preset and a Thermocoil heating system with PID Control; the page marks the model discontinued and publishes no specific brew-temperature range, so brew_temp_f is null. Whole Latte Love (BDC400BSS, SKU 26478) corroborates the identity and states the price $299.95 (regular/sale), Carafe Type: Glass, 60 oz volume, SCA-certified Gold Cup brewing, and a 2 Year Limited Warranty. Capacity 12 cups follows the 60 oz carafe under the catalog's 5 oz/cup convention and appears verbatim as "12-Cup" on the fetched Williams Sonoma page; a programmable auto-start timer and a release year were not stated on the cited pages, so both are null, and the accessory list (coffee filters plus a water-hardness test strip, no charcoal filter) supports water_filter=false.
