I have one of the classic bigger ones (dual heaters) My grandmother has dementia and once decided to insert the coffee grounds into the water container. Pretty easy fix, cleaned it up, ordered the original heat fuse to replace the blown one, along with some other parts and I now use it daily. The machine is about 50 years old.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Wow, that's amazing! How nice that you can get all the spare parts you need, even for such an older machine. 👍

[@janivoutilainen2610]

Have had my moccamaster for 25 years now, use it everyday.Very popular in Finland.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Awesome - thanks for sharing! Tom

[@sjurursteinholm5368]

That's so cute. I am used to the bigger versions of the moccamasters. They are the only machines my family uses and have been very reliable. Our current machine is 5 years old now, but the one we had before lasted us atleast 20 years.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Awesome Sjurdur, thanks for sharing! 20 years is awesome longevity!

[@christianluers7558]

It gets even better if you unscrew the filter holder. You can then use it with most smaller filter sizes. I like a V60 or a V60 Mugen. Beware that most 3rd party filters work better with a distribution device above the coffee bed.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Wow, that is a cool idea, because then you wouldn't have to worry about that little hole plugging! Thanks for watching and for the tip!

[@gamester711]

When tried one, I found it difficult to brew a rich cup. I prefer dark roasts. I tend to agree with others who believe that this brewer needs a shower-type water dispenser better saturate the grounds, or at least requires stirring the brew early on.

[@pistacho.cerrao]

I usually turn it on with a little bit of water (you'll hear a click when it's enough) and that way I preheat the machine and the cup, but also I reasure with this step that it is not clogged.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Thanks for that tip, I'll try it out tomorrow. :)

[@MichelleM-e6n]

Thank you Tom! I am a Dunkin lover so I appreciate the Dunkin reference. It doesn't look like you can fit a travel mug under the brewer which is a bummer. Great video!

[@randyw.8781]

From other users of this brewer they stated Melitta #2 filters work and are cheaper. FYI I'm not crazy about Dunkin Donuts coffee. I prefer Starbucks Verona dark roast but to each his own. Thanks for sharing.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Great tip! I have used both filters, and yes they both work well. 👍

[@rezartavdyli]

In Finland that is a very wanted coffee machine and it makes quite much better coffee compare with other brands, i sometimes drink coffee at my parents in law, they have this machine and it is very pleasant cup of coffee. Cheers Tom ✌️

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Hi Rezart! Your parents in law must have good taste and coffee. :-) i’m starting to think this machine is more popular than I realized…

[@rezartavdyli]

@@TomsCoffeeCorner yea they like coffee a lot as finnish they are, they drink a lot and this machine is really good expect the price i would say it is a bit too high but here comes offers that you can buy this for even 180euro so i think its a good deal. I have myself a braun cheap one for brewing and i just put 90degree hot water to brew but still doesnt compare with the moccamaster.

[@scottgeiger6450]

Great video.. I love mine and have used it almost everyday for the last 2 years. It’s so simple but brews the most amazing coffee. Just amazing..

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Couldn't agree more! It's fun to use, too!

[@cameronson5612]

Would like to know your thoughts on this one vs the KBG. How is the end result difference in taste?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Well, I have both, and they are quite similar. I prefer this one though, because I am the only one drinking filter coffee in our household.

[@LifeByKpop]

What a cool machine, Tom. I love Dunkin coffee as well... All my life.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Me too! They've got better coffee than Starbucks.

[@orrinbelcher6593]

Nice video fun and informative, beautiful little coffee maker, nicely done

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Thank you! This is one of my little favorite machines. Awesome coffee for just one person, and fun to use!

[@whiterose7055]

They do make Keurig filters so you can use bulk coffee, Tom. But this seems like a very nice machine

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Thanks for your comment! I feel like this machine simply makes a better brew, with its temperature stability, and the manner in which the coffee blooms. But it’s good to hear that there are other ways to take advantage of the Keurig.

[@sebastiangerk8609]

This one or the severin filka ?

[@M_Y_Wolde]

what is it you used to make the tea? i have only ever seen tea being made with a tea bag

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Loose leaf tea :)

[@LordWolfenstein]

What about the special filters you need?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Oh you can get those from Melitta for example, I think size 2. Cheers!

[@VirgosGroove3]

Does the mug come with the machine?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

No, it doesn't. :(

[@kreabea78]

nice review! I'm thinking of buying one of these, since i am the only one at home who drinks coffee and i prefer quality over quantity. Besides, the factory of these machines is 3 miles down the road from me, so i should support local business. ;-)

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Good choice, you won't be disappointed. I would love to check that factory out someday! Cheers, Tom

[@tristanwwsd]

If you prefer quality get a Hario or Kalita, or similar and you will save a lot of money too.

[@paulnorman8274]

@@tristanwwsd More work, though. Unless you are a completely uncompromising perfectionist, who insists on washing/preheating the filter, blooming the bed before the main brew and stirring the grounds almost al the way through. In that case, the Moccamaster is arguably more work. But for more "normal" people, who still wants a very good cup of coffee, simply putting in filter, water and coffee, then pressing the button and walking away, still nets a very good cup as long as the coffee and grind is suitable. Possible caveats being if you prefer VERY light or dark roasted beans, and or very freshly roasted ones which blooms unusually aggressively. In both cases you may want to brew: At a different temperature in the former case; and while stirring the bed a bit throughout the brew in the latter. At which point, the "press a button" simplicity edge, starts weakening, and you may as well go full manual.

[@paulstevens2839]

If your deciding on an espresso machine - buy the Moccamaster cup one and buy a Bialetti mocca pot- you will have the best of both worlds. It would still cost you less than an expensive espresso machine costing upwards of $500.

[@nickwilczynski3684]

Can you use a metal filter?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Sure, you can use any dripper you want. Cheers!

[@jesss2300]

Thanks for the review! Can you make tea as well in the larger brewers? Which do you recommend for a 1-2 person household? I noticed that you can go one-cup or jump to a half carafe which seems like a 2 cup minimum?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Yes, the full size machine is basically a 2 cup minimum. You can do tea in that one too. It might be unorthodox, but it works fine for me. Cheers!

[@whateutube]

How is the coffee compare to espresso?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Haha, well we're comparing apples to oranges then. But the coffee from this machine is very good.

[@whateutube]

@@TomsCoffeeCorner I’m debating between this and getting an espresso machine. Cost is not a factor, just taste is what I am after. I hope to hear it from you :)

[@nickwilczynski3684]

What’s that hole getting plugged with???

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Just little coffee grinds that might escape down the sides.

[@phunkyp-nut9210]

I’ve used my cup one daily for about a year and a half and the hole has never plugged up. I’m careful when I dump the grinds in. If you pre-wet the filter then you reduce the chances even more since a wet filter sticks to the sides.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

@@phunkyp-nut9210 Thanks for that tip! Love the 1 cup!

tnx for your nice video☺️❤️

[@zlotter3900]

Can I use filters №2? №1 is very difficult to find in my country... It stops from buying

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

The dripper is actually pretty big, I think a No 2 will fit.

[@phunkyp-nut9210]

Yes you can use #2. You’ll just have to fold both sides and the bottom to get it to fit but it does just fine!

[@painpeace3619]

Hey , Can you tell how much water should be used for 7gm (single shot espresso) coffee. Default settings of delonghi dedica ec 685 releases 46gm water for single shot.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Hi, go for about a double ratio, so stop the extraction at 14-16 grams. Cheers!

[@painpeace3619]

@@TomsCoffeeCorner Is the time always be 25-30sec for single or double. Or it is going to change with the amount of ground coffee.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

It'll probably be less for the single...maybe like 15-20 seconds in my experience.

That’s a “Moccamaster” a Top Brand. Great machine Tom. My parents have a big one of that brand. The best. 👍🙏🐕🤩🙋🏼‍♂️☕️🇳🇱😍👌😎

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Sure thing, Gerrit! Yes, this company seems to make very nice equipment, and I really enjoy using the Cup One. All the best! Tom

[@ManuelDornbusch]

I have a full size Technivorm Moccamaster since a quarter of a century. It is the one with the thermopot And it runs as perfectly as it did fresh out of the box. Makes real good coffee But one thing is to be considered. It does best on a full load. A pot that holds a liter is not meant to produce a single cup. Physics, right? So Technivorm produced the product that is the solution. Because now and then I only want a single cup. But I battle with myself. Another coffee machine just for the now and then "one cup only" situation? That is crazy, isn't it? But then again, I have a Bialetti, a V60 and a Gaggia Baby (currently deconstructed and waiting for a PID, indefinitly) So who am I kidding, am I right? One more is not crazy

[@UpUpDnDnLtRtLtRtBAStart]

For the price is better to just get the KGBV select.

[@andrewboland2967]

Hi Tom. Great review. Thank you! But surely your caveat is not such a big deal. I mean…they even supply the toothpick.

I agree. I love this machine. I just wanted to mention it, because it's gonna piss some people off when it happens. 😅

[@yuliyachernyshov2392]

Was almost sold on this but this has too much plastic that comes in contact with the hot water. Example the filter where the water drips. Plastic still leeches chemicals and drinking it everyday, no thanks. Stainless French press it is for now.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Well, you could use a different dripper instead...

[@PeeDoggG]

Like what kind? ​@@TomsCoffeeCorner

[@williamfreitag9232]

Two things. Dunkin coffee ? I put that in the category as below average coffee. Second, placing your mouth to blow out that clog is no bueno. I’ll stick with my Chemex. I can easily adjust my levels to make 1-3 cups instead of brewing 3 separate cups on the Mocca. I would consider the Moccamaster large volume if I needed to make a pot at a time. Thanks for your review

[@LoLo-dh9pi]

Is he a drunken donut sales rep? For ground beans the cupped is quite expensive, but since it also makes tea well I may be hoked.

[@laurenyoungs]

I bought one, but I was so disappointed by all the plastic. I returned it.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Oh Lauren, sorry to hear that! I think the important parts are metal. Which components would you have preferred be changed? Maybe a glass water resevoir instead of plastic? Or the dripper? Cheers! Tom

@@TomsCoffeeCorner the water reservoir, and then it leaked when I turned it on

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

@@laurenyoungs Just a drip, or more? Mine always drips 1-2 drips when adding water. I think it has to do with the water purging the air and water out of the system.
