Keurig has taken their one cup model of coffee maker and made it even smaller with the K10 mini brewer. They are offering them up in an array of bright colors as well to make them more alluring to kitchens and small spaces that need some accenting. The name of the game here is choice and speed. The machine uses K-cups to offer the drinker a choice of just about any hot drink they can think of in less than 2 minutes. When it comes to features, there isn’t much going on. The only option available is the choice of 3 cup sizes. There is no water reservoir or temperature control. This small machine isn’t designed to address those issues, so it functions pretty well for its design. The K10 is the perfect machine for someone interested in trying the K-cup method. It would also be a great addition to a college dorm room.

Machine + Water + Coffee Beans + Coffee = How Your Coffee Tastes

Coffee Maker Buying Guide

Water Filtration

Good, clean water and how it tastes has a definite impact on your coffee. An extra water filter is a good choice for your coffee maker especially if you don’t have a water filter on your whole home or kitchen tap. If your water already tastes good, there’s less of a need for a water filter in your drip coffee maker.

Whole or Ground Beans

If you want to have the freshest coffee taste, most experts will argue that whole beans ground the same day will produce the best result for a cup of coffee. Several coffee makers do come with their own grinding machine for consumers wanting to have their beans ground on demand. Luckily for us today, there are also plenty of ground beans roasted to perfection and then ground and packaged that can be used in your drip coffee maker to produce nearly the same quality cup.

Thermal or Glass Coffee Carafe

One area that is under consideration for consumers who like to drink coffee most of the day, the coffee carafe will also be an important part of that consideration. Thermal coffee makers can be a bit more expensive and will keep coffee hot and ready-to-drink for many hours without any burnt coffee taste.

The Right Coffee Machine

Finding the right machine may seem overwhelming given the thousands of options. The ten drip coffee makers we rated and present here cut through the clutter. Once you figure out which elements are most important to you – from single cup to 12-cup makers, to water filters and programmable options, the perfect machine will pop out. Of the top ten, we also rated one for best price, one for best value and one for best quality. Final machine choice is ultimately up to you.

A deluxe super automatic espresso machine suited for both commercial and home use, this Quick Mill Monza model has a lot of convenient programming options, all highlighted on the bright LED display. While the coffee-making process is taken care of for you, you still have control over a host of factors, including the temperature, brewing time, and cleaning cycles. The stylish machine even lets you add decaf pre-ground coffee if you so desire. This behemoth machine, costing $2,595, takes up a lot of space, but you can choose to use the tank or hook it up directly to your water supply.

Jura produced another high-quality, compact super automatic espresso machine with this $1,496 Ena 9 model. The clean, elegant front panel will spruce up any kitchen counter, and the coffee this machine produces is fresh and flavorful. We especially appreciated the one-touch aroma boost, which makes the most of the coffee extraction process to deliver extra-strong espressos. Keeping up with and performing the maintenance duties is easy with the machine’s helpful reminders.

Designed to make the coffee programming as streamlined as possible and giving you control over the temperature, strength, and amount of coffee, the Jura Impressa J9 produces fresh, flavorful coffee with ease. We found the milk foam it creates, a fine, light substance, to be quite delicious. It’s also convenient to not have to shift the cup position when you make lattes and cappuccinos. The coffee spouts adjust to different heights easily. While this machine is pricey at $2,790, it makes fine coffee and espressos and has a clean, attractive design.
