Killing my fondness for coffee, one pot at a time...

Pros Makes very good coffee. Looks cool.
Cons Also makes a mess. Expensive, labor intensive, inconvenient.
Recommended it? No

A few months ago, my husband Bill and I were in the market for a new coffee maker. We had just moved into our rented house in Germany and we needed to replace some of the small appliances we left behind in the States. Bill is a coffee snob. He loves everything associated with coffee and knows a lot... Read full review »

What an Americano dreams of being

Pros Great coffee from an automatic machine at a reasonable price.
Cons It's being discontinued.
Recommended it? Yes

Some times it's hard to be a foodie on a budget; while I didn't have a huge problem with cooking (the only "expensive" piece of equipment I had to buy myself is my mixer, the knives were a gift) coffee hasn't been as easy to get into. First of all a good grinder is essential; secondly adequate... Read full review »

Worth All the Extra Effort

Pros Elegant design. Produces dark, rich and flavorful brew.
Cons Time consuming production and cleaning processes.
Recommended it? Yes

There are, basically, four elements to making a decent cup of coffee: good water, quality coffee, the proper ratio of water to coffee, and finally, proper grind to brewing method. Forgo any one of these and risk disappointment. Over my coffee consuming history, admittedly, I've taken great care to... Read full review »

Krups Moka

17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Deep, rich, aromatic brew recalling French bistros more than McDonald's or even Tim...
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Coffee makers fascinate me. The past fifteen years have been split between two Krups Aroma Plus units with thermal carafes, plus an occasional press pot. I have found vastly superior the depth of flavor with Bodum press pots. They do very well for single servings. Recently I mistakenly believed the... Read full review »

Great alternative to DRIP coffee makers

byeworinkrv Jun 13, 2005
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Great coffee Compact size Attractive design & appearance
Cons More set up & clean effort Filters are harder to find Little or no aroma
Recommended it? Yes

A friend of mine suggested the Krups Moka Brew F468 Coffee Maker to me. I'd been happy with a Krups Aroma Control drip coffee maker. Now, I only use that when I have a bunch of people over where it's stainless thermos and larger capacity (12 cups vs. 8) is handy. The Krups Aroma Control has one... Read full review »

Interesting and Difficult

byxmasrat Jan 19, 2006
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Good cup of Joe for the American taste and a unique (spiffy and different) design
Cons A poor filter design and inability to clean and keep dry the unit's heating base
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased mine from PC Plus for the lowest price I could find at $45. It came quickly and, as advertised, it was brand new not refurbished.

It makes a strong cup of coffee not as strong as an espresso or pressure relief value Moka makers because it only uses the steam pressure of its... Read full review »

Rich, aromatic, flavorful coffee!

Pros Simple to use and clean Makes fantastic coffee!
Cons Would like the on/off switch to automatically go off
Recommended it? Yes

I started home roasting my own coffee in March and bought a new Zojirushi drip coffee maker with carafe to celebrate. I love the coffee, but couldn't get it strong enough with the drip machine and with the carafe, I couldn't smell the coffee brewing. That's one of the best things about brewing... Read full review »

Pros good taste, nice and hot,easy to use, good value for the money,looks cool
Cons no automatic timer, filters somewhat difficult and expensive to obtain
Recommended it? Yes

Have had my new machine for two weeks now.Love the fact that I don't get warm coffee,it's hot when it's done.Flavor is good, though I had hoped this one would need less grounds than a drip but so far that hasn't been the case.The only drawback are the filters.They need to be ordered and with...

Could be dangerous.

Pros NONE. Too many problems when trying to brew a pot.
Cons Dangerous. Too much steam surrounds in the unit.
Recommended it? No

Can't recommend this coffee maker. I have had too many bad experiences with it. One of three things happen when I brew a fresh pot of coffee. Note: I always center and secure the pot., then either: 1. It brews a pot of coffee correctly or 2. steam starts emanating from all around the brewer, or 3... Read full review »

Moka Brew STILL proving itself- over 4 years later

Pros Compact, Consistent output, Easy to Clean
Cons None so far.
Recommended it? Yes

November 2010: Still using my Moka Brew--everyday since 2005 and loving it! The plastic grounds-filter basket, though anything but flimsy, gave out last year (cracked, likely from the heavy use I subject it to). Conveniently, I discovered a parts supplier in the Toronto area, they shipped the... Read full review »
