KBTS

I like the Moccamaster's simplicity and commitment to repairability. And I like that the KBT (and KBTS, which is the model I have) uses a thermal carafe instead of a burner. I bought it to replace a crappy super cheap drip machine. Yes, the coffee is better, even the same basic canister of pre-groun

The KBGV is 1” taller and 1.25” longer and has a 40oz glass carafe versus the 32oz stainless steel carafe. The other big difference is the KBGV has a second switch you flip to select a half or a full pot, which changes the temperature of the heating element under the carafe and turns on/off the boil

I use mine a couple of times a week. I can’t brew as flavorful cup of coffee as I can using my V60, so I use more commercial beans in my Moccamaster and use my “better beans” for my V60. The Moccamaster brews a consistent and nice cup of coffee. Better than other cups I’ve tried from drip machines a

Get the KBTS model with the flow control switch - and use Cafec 103 filters (not the mocca master ones, which are slow and clog easily) and you’ll be surprised how good the coffee is. If you get other Moccamaster models, and use Moccamaster branded filters, it’s not nearly as impressive.

Have you looked At Moccamaster? Their KBTS can brew a full pot (32oz) or half a pot (16oz). They’re expensive but I got my KBTS as a refurb direct from the company for $229.

The KBTS is the supreme model moccamaster. Here's why. It has a thermal carafe that is steel-lined, not glass. So thermal shock concerns don't apply. It doesn't use a hot plate which means that you can brew into any container you please. I've brewed directly into a mug, into a travel mug, a differen

My spouse was getting espressos from our neighbor and their Breville Barista Express at least 3 times a week until they moved. I had researched it all to try to get my spouse off their espressos since Breville is full of plastic plus our neighbors were parents of 3 under 3 so I knew there was crud i

Neither. Get the KBTS. It's the smallest model with a thermal carafe. It makes up to 1 L (32 oz) which is perfect for 4 people to share (if you ever host your family or some friends). Because it's the thermal model, you can take the carafe out and put a travel mug or thermos or mug underneath and br

I currently own a Moccamaster KBTS and an xBloom Studio. I previously owned (and returned) an Aiden. My .02 - if money isn’t an issue get the Moccamaster and an extremely good grinder. Since it’s such a basic/dumb device - the grinder (and of course water) will have the biggest impact, but with a to

I am not the OP but looking for the same. I’m down to Ratio 4, Moccamaster KBTS….looked at the MM Cup One but not great reviews. Also the Bonavita 5 cup and OXO 5 cup.
