"If you mean the Braun MR 6 designed by Ludwig Littman, it was from 1981."

"The sleek all white carafe for the KF70 & KF80 12 cup coffee maker although it looks like an insulated thermos jug, is actually also a glass carafe with an all plastic outer housing.  The bottom is clear glass.  An insulated thermos jug would have been a great alternative to the standard glass carafe.  I am still searching for the sane sleek all white carafe for the KF172 (1995) & a later metallic green version KF178 (2001).  I prefer & collect the all white versions but I am curious if these also were available in black."
