Query: Not hot enough

I was really hoping for the best with this item, but it is not to be. This coffee maker only reaches the optimal brew temp of 195-205 degrees for the last 2-3 cups of water. The first 7-8 cups brew around 180-185 degrees. I even tried pre-heating the water on stove to 100+ degrees before pouring it in and brewing, and it still can't brew higher than 185 for the first 7 or 8 cups. Might have to spend the $300 on a Technivorm, or just use my $36 Northwest Glass Yama Stovetop Coffee Siphon for the best coffee we have ever had.
