KBT

My bold opinion is: Moccamaster has always been designed to make full pots, and all attempts to make half pots are never going to be as good. My KBT makes decent half pots, but never as perfect as full pots (at least 1L). This is because it's simply near-boiling water flowing through coffee by gravi

•Most of the consumer models will start with “K”.•If it has a “T” in the model, it’s a steel thermal carafe. If there is no “T” it is the glass carafe with warming plate.•If there is a “G” in the model, it has auto drip stop (pull out the carafe for a cup before it’s done brewing) If there is no “G”

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

It fits on the top of the standard moccomaster basket and spreads the water out from the original 9 hole want making for more even saturation. Huge improvement! https://coffeepilot.ca/products/shower-head-insert-for-technivorm-moccamaster

I have never ever heard a single person rave about the shower head. If anything, it's the part people complain about the most. Quality control and customer service are above average, and the replaceable plastic parts are a well known aspect of Moccamasters. It seems like every time there's a sale, a

Regarding half pots - I find that on my KBT, even when I use the half-pot setting I still need to grind finer in order to get the ideal brew. So I experimented to find ideal grind settings for full pots and half pots, and I generally stick to one of the two batch sizes. The ideal grind settings are

The water delivery isn't identical between the 2 machines though. The KBGV is the first Moccamaster with a variable flow through the boiler itself. That's very different. I don't treat ATK as gospel, and sometimes their testing makes me go hmmmm. But they have chosen Moccamasters as their favorite m

You of course can do that, but the result won't be ideal. The flow rate out of the filter basket will be too fast to get good extraction without enough coffee slowing things down. The CDT Grand doesn't even have water lines on the reservoir except for the 60 oz mark. You could likely grind finer for

Hello! I'm starting to get into coffee as it really helps me get through a day of work. My goal is to find the perfect coffee setup to fill a container that keeps for at least 6 hours and isn a tasty enough coffee that I can sip throughout the day. I currently use a heated mug to maintain the coffee

Get a Moccamaster ,this type with the manual-adjust stop on the KBT’s brew basket allows you to control the brewing speed or stop it entirely as it flows into the carafe. If you are on a budget, I would get the OXONConical Burr Coffee Grinder or the fellow ode gen 2 grinder.
