Why are most Coffee Carafes made of glass? Why do they break so easily? And some of them cost almost as much as a new coffeemaker. Sounds like a rant? It is. Anybody who loves her morning coffee but was stopped short because the coffee pot was broken knows what I am talking about.

If your coffee carafe is broken and you need a replacement, you have a few options depending on the type of coffee maker you have. Let us see what replacements are available for the carafe.Here are some suggestions:

    • Original Replacement Carafe:

If you have a popular, recent, brand of coffeemaker, you shouldn’t face much problem in getting a replacement carafe. Just a simple search on Amazon should unearth a replacement carafe.But many of us have outdated models which have been phased out by the manufacturers. And then there are brands such as GE, which do not have their own replacement carafes. The first step is to note down the brand and model. Search on Amazon to find a replacement carafe There are other websites which give more detailed information to help you find your replacement more easily. For instance, Coffee Carafe Replacements.com has replacement carafe charts for most popular brands with a list of their coffeemakers and the suitable replacement carafes. If you don’t find one, look for a Universal Replacement Carafe.

Some companies offer universal replacement carafes that can fit multiple coffee maker brands and models. Look for a carafe with dimensions that match your coffee maker. Companies such as Medelco produce Universal Replacement Carafes, which fit as many models as possible of the famous brands. For instance, there is a medelco replacement available for the carafe of the ancient Krups 170 coffeemaker. Go through the available Universal Replacement Carafes on Amazon and see if any of them fit your coffeemaker.

Medelco 10 Cup Universal Replacement Glass Carafe

There is no single one size fits all product among replacement carafes. The one that comes closest is the Medelco 10 Cup Universal Replacement Glass Carafe. Many original branded carafes are made from thin glass and break easily. This universal carafe is made from thicker, higher quality glass. It still is glass, so it needs some careful handling, but it is not as fragile as the other glass carafes. It fits the widest range of models of popular brands of coffeemakers. You can find the list of models that it fits on the Amazon Page for this product.
    • Glass or Stainless Steel Carafes:

Consider upgrading to a different material. If your original carafe was glass and broke, you might opt for a stainless steel carafe. Stainless steel carafes are more durable and can also keep your coffee hot for a longer time.

    • Thermal Carafes:

Thermal carafes are designed to keep coffee hot without using a heating plate. If your previous carafe had a heating plate and you’d like to try something different, a thermal carafe might be a good choice.

    • Local Retailers or Online Stores:

Check with local kitchen appliance retailers or online stores. Many stores carry a variety of replacement parts, including coffee carafes.

    • Secondhand Markets:

Consider checking secondhand markets, such as thrift stores or online marketplaces. Sometimes you can find compatible carafes for your coffee maker at a lower cost.

    • Contact the Manufacturer:

If you can’t find a suitable replacement through regular channels, contact the manufacturer directly. They may be able to assist you in finding the right replacement part.

    • Measure and Match:

Take careful measurements of your coffee maker’s space for the carafe. Look for a replacement that matches these dimensions to ensure a proper fit.

Remember to check the compatibility of the replacement carafe with your specific coffee maker model to ensure it fits securely and functions properly.
