I considered the Technivorm and Bonavita.  They have the strength of good temperature control  What they don't have, which the KRUPS does, is a thermocouple which allows the grounds to bloom properly before passing the brew to the carafe.  While the temperature isn't adjustable on the KRUPS, my instant read shows 198ºF, which is what I would choose.

 

I see that OXO has a new machine similar to the Bonavita and Technivorm, but which might also do a good job of temperature control and blooming cycles.  I haven't seen any reviews, however.

 

The Londinium looks awesome!  I haven't seen that machine before.
