Top 10 best coffee makers
Ninja 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker CE251
First off, at number 10, we have the ultimate budget-friendly champion, the ‘Ninja 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker CE251.’
Perfect for those seeking a low-fuss, under $100 drip coffee maker that serves up consistently good coffee, be it freshly ground or pre-ground beans.
Its intuitive programmable features, ease of use, and nifty settings for both classic and richer tastes make it a strong contender.
However, it does come with a fussy carafe lid. But hey, considering its capacity of 12 cups and a brew time of only about 13 minutes, that’s a minor hiccup.
AeroPress Coffee And Espresso Maker
Swerving into number 9, we have the AeroPress Coffee And Espresso Maker. Now this one is for the single-serve enthusiasts!
Compact, budget-friendly, and incredibly versatile, this gadget can whip up everything from strong, concentrated coffee to clean, crisp cups.
It’s perfect for travel and comes with paper micro-filters for an easy clean-up. However, its gasket can wear over time, but for its quick usage and affordability, we still give it a thumbs up.
OXO Good Grips Cold Brew Coffee Maker
Onto number 8, introducing the OXO Good Grips Cold Brew Coffee Maker, your key to a smoother, sweeter, iced coffee.
Among the other cold brew models we tested, OXO’s gadget produced the most consistent, flavorful cup of cold coffee.
Now, there were mixed feelings about its flavor compared to our runner-up, the Filtron Cold Water Coffee Concentrate Brewer.
Some testers felt Filtron’s coffee was smoother, but others liked OXO’s bolder, stronger flavor. We’d say it comes down to personal preference.
Cuisinart 12-Cup Brew Central Coffee Maker
Sitting pretty at number 7 is the Cuisinart 12-Cup Brew Central Coffee Maker.
This programmable wonder, with a large carafe, is for those who can’t start the day without multiple cups of java. Its slew of features like 24-hour brew programming, adjustable “keep warm” temperature control, and a “time to clean” indicator light make it quite a catch.
The only downside? A slightly tricky carafe lid. But with its adjustable features and longevity, it’s a crowd-pleaser.
Nespresso VertuoPlus
For pod-coffee lovers, our number 6 pick, the Nespresso VertuoPlus, is a breeze to use with minimal clean-up.
Our top choice among all the best Nespresso machines we’ve tested is the Nespresso VertuoPlus.
With a simple push of a button, this machine serves your preferred coffee drink – be it a 5 or 8-ounce cup, an espresso, or a double espresso. The machine reads the embedded instructions in each capsule and brews accordingly, providing an effortless coffee-making experience.
Cleaning the VertuoPlus is also a breeze. All you need to do is discard the capsules periodically and rinse the water tank.
Keurig K-Elite Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer
At the halfway point, we have the Keurig K-Elite Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer.
The Keurig K-Café Smart Single Serve Coffee Maker is ideal for coffee enthusiasts who prefer not to brew a full pot.
This machine allows you to prepare various sizes of coffee – 6, 8, 10, or 12 ounces, while also offering 2- and 4-ounce shots for the cappuccino and latte lovers.
The appliance has five intensity levels and six temperature settings to cater to your personal taste.
What’s more, the coffee maker is Wi-Fi-enabled. After setting up the Keurig App, you can access comprehensive guides for brewing different types of coffee drinks.
The machine is also compatible with voice assistants like Alexa for seamless operation.
This single-serve coffee maker uses Keurig K-Cup pods and comes with a hot and cold milk frother that features three different speeds.
The removable 60-ounce water tank is convenient for filling and cleaning, and its large capacity reduces the frequency of refills.
Breville Grind Control Coffee Maker
Sliding into the number 4 slot is the Breville Grind Control Coffee Maker.
The Breville Grind Control Coffee Maker stands out with its built-in stainless steel burr grinder.
If you’re into exploring different roasts, this machine will be your best friend, allowing for strength customization based on the coffee bean.
But if pre-ground coffee is your thing, simply turn off the grinder.
The coffee maker caters to various sizes, from a 12-cup thermal carafe to a single coffee cup or a travel mug. The swing-out door provides easy access to the coffee basket and filter, making it a breeze to fill and clean.
Café Specialty Drip Coffee Maker
At number 3, we have a smart option: Café Specialty Drip Coffee Maker.
The Café Smart Specialty Drip Coffee Maker is a design delight and a tech-enthusiast’s dream. Not only does it look good, but it also consistently brews up to 10 cups of premium, barista-quality coffee.
This SCA-certified machine is Wi-Fi–enabled and pairs with the SmartHQ app, enabling remote control from your phone or via a smart speaker.
Available in three distinct colors, it offers a thermal carafe, though a glass carafe option is also available.
Breville Precision Brewer Thermal
Moving onto our runner-up at number 2, we have the Breville Precision Brewer Thermal.
The Breville Precision Brewer Thermal is a top-quality programmable coffee maker that offers a great cup of coffee, earning its place among the best drip coffee makers.
This machine features two brew baskets catering to different coffee quantities, and it automatically adjusts brew settings for quantities less than 20 ounces.
The brewer is user-friendly, offering simple functions and multiple brew settings. The LCD screen keeps you informed about the brewing status.
The Breville Precision Brewer offers customizability at its finest, providing control over bloom time, brew temperature, and flow rate.
OXO Brew 9-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Maker
And finally, drum roll, please… Our top pick for 2023 is the OXO Brew 9-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Maker!
This coffee maker is an absolute gem, boasting a sleek stainless steel design that enhances any kitchen countertop.
The OXO Brew 9-Cup Coffee Maker, while maintaining an average size, is just 6.5 inches deep, thereby conserving your valuable kitchen space.
Its innovative conical shape may be a tad modern for some tastes, but OXO also produces a more traditional looking 8-cup version.
The simplicity of operation is where this machine truly shines – a single button manages time setting, timer programming, coffee making, and quantity selection.
Plus, there’s a freshness timer to ensure you always enjoy your coffee at its best.
The machine features a thermal carafe made of double-wall stainless steel, promising long-lasting hot coffee. A bonus for the impatient coffee lovers – it offers a pause and pour feature.
The OXO Brew 9 Cup is a Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) certified home brewer, equipped with a unique rainmaker showerhead for even water distribution, leading to improved flavor extraction.
This machine consistently delivers a delicious cup of coffee with little to no hassle.
