Dusty Dino: I don't consider myself to be a coffee connoisseur, yet here I am...

For most of my life I've used Mr. Coffee coffee burners. And while I noticed that the coffee I was making (wasting) did not taste as good as the coffee from nice restaurants and coffee shops, I didn't really care much, and kind of assumed it was due to their expensive makers and fancy coffee. It turns out that was only partially true. About 7 years ago my most recent coffee burner died, so I went to my favorite coffee burner store, Home Depot. I found a $20 Black & Decker 5-cup coffee burner. Except, it didn't burn the coffee. The maker included a reusable mesh filter. Combining the additional solute from the mesh filter, with coffee that was brewed at the correct temperature...my world was changed. I began sampling fancier coffee's that my deluxe $20 maker was worthy of. I even joined a coffee club. Whenever I had guests over, I'd brew a pot of coffee and wait for the compliments. And generally, friends and family did often comment that they really liked my coffee.

Now that you know my life story and we are basically best friends, let's talk about the Moccamaster. A few years after the purchase...

pm444: I love the design, the ease of use, the clear water container which is a nice change from the interior one on my previous machines, and most of all, the coffee.

This machine is simple. It’s very easy to see the exactly how much water you’re pouring in. There’s an on/off switch, and a selector switch which sets the brewing cycle, either for more or less than a half pot.

The brew time is a bit slower when you select half pot or less, and the hot plate will turn off automatically a bit sooner. You can use this setting even when you make more than half a pot.

I use a fairly coarse grind (coarser than grocery store ground coffee). This works well for me. Moccamaster includes a chart that shows water to coffee ratios for various amounts, based both on number of scoops with the included scoop, and grams. I find their recommendations based on grams to give better results, but you can adjust the amount of coffee to find what’s best for you.

There is no timer, no clock, no lights or buttons aside from the two I’ve described, and the simplicity of the machine is part of its appeal.

I’ve read some criticisms of the way the water is distributed...

axel reiche: This machine gives me the best coffee I have have ever tasted for single serve use or multiple cup use.
I like the bullet proof simplicity of the brewing process. There are no complicated electronics to fiddle with or break down.
At first, I was concerned about the fragile looking carafe, lid and other removable plastic parts. I then realized that a responsible adult exercising normal care will not have have any concerns.
For everyday hand washing of the pot, the lid detaches itself. It is easily reattached by slipping the nub on the lid into the notch.
I was concerned that Mocca Master’s one cup model could not accommodate a 16 ounce Canadian mug, and that this model’s half pot option would be too much for a single serve option. I was delighted to find that the half pot option is 16 ounces and perfect for my mug. ( To maintain gold standard quality , I have been informed not to make less than the half pot (16 oz, 1/2 liter, or 4 European size coffee cups).
The 5 year warranty and the encouragement to repair with easily available parts, rather than trash and replace , make this a worthwhile investment.
It works simply and simply makes the best tasting coffee.

LONATHAN MOXONLONATHAN MOXON: Our grind and brew machine died on us and so we started using a French press and/or Areo press. Both options worked fine, but I like to make a pot in the morning so my wife can have a cup, and I can take the rest to work in a thermos.

I started watching reviews on drip coffee makers and came across this unit. Everything about it was appealing.

-THE LOOK- Aesthetically, it's stunning. Timeless, classic look. It's very clean, the textured finish looks very durable, doesn't finger print, and the color choices are excellent. (I wanted the pistachio color but once I pulled the trigger couldn't wait for it to be shipped so opted for my second choice). While brewing it looks neat as the water bubbles up the center column and into the outlet.

-THE BREWING OPTIONS- Very basic controls, but the half pot select allows you to not only brew a half pot, but modifies blooming duration. From there the sky is the limit with grind options and strength without all the buttons and programming. It's also pretty fast- full pot in 6 minutes.

-THE TASTE- I've had it 5 days and have made 7-8 pots... It's the best tasting coffee (obviously the beans, grind and everything can...
