I'll be the first to say the usual answer of Technivorm Moccamaster. Literally only 2 switches, on/off and half/full brew. I really like mine, they're hand made, it's built like a tank and you get a lifelong warranty.

Technivorm. The company that makes the Moccamaster coffee machines. You can buy one for life if you take care of it. My brother still owns the one my parent bought 30 years ago. And Auping.

The grinder will be bad and the espresso it produces will be frustrating if your goal is to replicate what you’re drinking in good coffee houses. And cleaning it will be tricky and with grounds retained in the grinder. For $360 you could get a used Bambino and a $200 grinder on Facebook Marketplace

It uses parts that are easy to replace and are consistent with parts used decades ago. It heats water at the co

Thats lame. How anybody can be unhappy with that gift is crazy. A moccamaster can and will last many, many years. The ninja will likely last a fraction of that. I was ecstatic when my wife gave me my moccamaster KBGV as a birthday gift. Whenever she asked me what I wanted, I'd would jokingly say to

The Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker. I got tired of buying a new lesser one every year. I’m going on 10 years with mine and it’s still going strong.

Some observations: I do not know how to cover 4 American football fields of booths in 3 days. I could do it in 5 days. Spending longer than 7-12 minutes at any one booth/company is a major commitment of time in this context. Lance was there. Doug was there. Weber booth was very customer focused and
