Do not use your coffee pot to refill the water reservoir for any coffee maker. Coffee is hydrophobic and despite looking clean that coffee pot likely has coffee oils on it. Perhaps you do a deep cleaning every time, but adding coffee oil to the internals of a coffee machine isn't a great idea. Despi

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.

Moccamaster is engineers coffee maker. It makes it exactly to spec, just to still fail.

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

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.

He's got a water softening system. He's choosing to use well water to make coffee and he's destroyed on average, 1 Moccamaster per year through abuse and questionable maintenance for the past 4 years.

Tbh, no. I gave up on it and it is sitting on a shelf gathering dust. Have went to an OXO coffee maker and tbh, the coffee is way better without any of the headache. Doubt it is as durable as the Moccamaster. I’m sure there is a winning recipe or maybe something was off with my machine, lots of peop

Almost every coffee maker I have ever had has lasted longer than five years. There are literally no moving parts. Just keep any coffee maker descaled and it will last. I have a Moccamaster and its a mixed bag. Yes the boiler is built like a tank but all the plastic parts that go in the outside are s

Consumer reports had Cuisinart DCC-3200 as the top rated model with a 5 (out of 5) on brew performance. And this has Technivorms and Fellows on their list. Those get penalized on ease of use or ease of cleaning, or carafe handling, but also have 5 on their brew performance. I own the Cuisinart and w

Oh lord. It’s been a weekend. I changed the grinder and got some good and some grounds, coffee dependent. I guess my research didn’t show me that different coffee makers mean a different grind needed and what a waste of expensive coffee. Then, yesterday, my husband started the brewer accidentally th
