Best drip coffee makers for home with no bells and whistles?

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.

What makes the Technivorm Moccamaster so good ? Is it really that good ?

Not an expert or authority, but I have owned one (KBGT). It does brew very good coffee, but other coffee brewers out there can as well. The difference with the Moccamaster is that many people consider it a buy-it-for-life purchase. They are hand made (https://youtu.be/W8_NXtwr-qg). They maintain ide

Um.. should we tell them?

I use this Moccamaster to start a coffee in the middle of the night when I have to catch a flight early. You turn off the smart switch but turn on the coffee maker, pre-fill the water tank, pre-open the valve, pre-grind the beans and place them into the filter. When the smart switch turns on the pou

Lucie, I can assure you that no one cares

I will say this is a dumb dumb post but this carafe actually belongs to a somewhat fancy coffee maker. It’s a Moccamaster, which brews somewhat similar to pour over coffee compared to your average Mr. Coffee. But I’m still a hater. If you’re gonna drink iced coffee, get a cold brew maker.

What am I doing wrong that my grounds have two deep holes apparent after brewing?

There are all sorts of techniques out there (stir, pause and let bloom, get a new showerhead, etc. etc.) but I’d suggest forget all of that. The Moccamaster became popular and well liked brewing just as is, following Technivorm’s instructions. As for the divots in your grounds I get that every now a

I think my Zojirushi made a better single cup..

KGBV select imho is not a great choice for one-cup brewing to be honest. It works better when operated with larger brewing amounts, let's say, half a litre upwards. For your use-case, I might have considered - if it had to be Moccamaster - a Cup-One. Your Zojirushi Zutto on the other hand appears to

Drip coffee maker suggestions

Breville Luxe. Solid build. Reliable. Makes great coffee and brewing parameters can be changed. My personal opinion: avoid Moccamaster coffee makers. They are expensive and have a lot of flimsy cheap plastic parts. Brew parameters are also fixed.

Different Moccamaster KBGV Brew basket, and water basin lids: My In-Law's new Moccamaster has different plastic lids compared to my ~3 year old one of the same model. New, cheaper feeling lids not shown on product pages.

I bought the newer type MoccaMaster for the half pot selector, new color and design parity with their grinder. I had a older one from 2005 which I gifted to my parents. At my job we have various moccamasters. A few remarks regarding the quality of MoccaMasters from my experience: -The old one had a

What makes the Technivorm Moccamaster so good ? Is it really that good ?

First off: I understand it is a good coffee maker. The question the OP is really asking though is is it good enough to justify the premium I think at this point it may be trading on its name a little. There are a fair number consistent temp, shower head / multi-hole style drip, reliable, SCA certifi

Best coffee machines under $300 to put on wedding registry?

The moccamaster is the gold standard for good drip coffee. Buttttttt it doesn’t have a timer and you have to physically turn it on and off. Unless you got an outlet timer adapter thing. If you’re a regular coffee person, I would suggest the breville luxe or the behmor brazen 2.0. Just solid coffee m
