Coffee Maker Recommendations

There is a pretty in depth coffee thread in here somewhere.

Also, go to specialty coffee brewers association site. There is a list of approved brewers, meaning they reach the right temps for the water on a consistent basis. Which in turn gives you the best tasting coffee.

If you’re going to drop $200, you just assume buy one off this list. There is a ninja on there I think, but no clue which one it is.

Durability would be my concern with the Ninja. Can’t speak to the Cuisinart. I have an OXO Barista Brain and make one cup of coffee every morning, so not sure a “single cup feature” is worth narrowing your search over.

I’d look at:
OXO Barista Brain
Technivorm Moccamaster
Bonavita BV Series

Those three are consistently ranked as the best drip coffee makers available.

I got that Cuisinart for Christmas....made my first pot this morning. Great coffee maker....only negative I've found so far is one that seems to affect most of the brands with the single serve option.....there will be splatter for normal sized coffee mugs.

The coffee snobs will snort in derision, but for a single cup maker, the Black and Decker DCM18S is all you need. Mine delivers an 8oz, 155 deg. cup in under 5 min. Easy clean, no strain, no pain. I use #1 paper filters to ease the dump, but they are not necessary. Dirt cheap on Amazon.

Honestly, for the vast majority of consumers a Mr. Coffee is fine. Most people aren’t grinding fresh beans with a good quality burr grinder each morning, so the benefits of a high end drip like the Technivorm, OXO, or Bonavita would be lost on them anyway.

I have a $15 mr coffee and a $30 hamilton beach single cup
