One I can endorse is a "FreshBrew" drip coffeemaker diffuser.  A quick Googling doesn't show it, but it was made by a company called Jokari, which is still in business.  I tyhink it was $5-10.

 

It's basically a 4" diameter copper disk with impressed standoffs, that you place between the appliance's hotplate and your glass carafe.  IME, it "tames" the hotplate to the extent you can enjoy your coffee over a few hours, rather than having to either decant or risk that burnt taste/odor.

Amazon has quite a selection of them. Here are three:

 

OXO 1241881 Silicone Spoon Spatula, White/Black

 

Di Oro Seamless Series Pro Grade Silicone Spoon Spatula - BPA Free Pro-Grade Non-Stick 600ºF

 

Rachael Ray 55780 Silicone Spoonula, Red

 

I also see them around in kitchen shops - at least, I did the last time I was in one - and in various discount stores. I don't have any specific recommendations for brands.

 

I ordered ten Di Oro spatulas tonight.  I hope I like them.
