Technivorm Moccamaster KBG Filter Coffee Machine
The Moccamster machines by Technivorm are what a lot of people will consider as the ultimate “normal”, premium filter coffee machine.
By “normal” I mean there’s nothing fancy about them, let’s face it, they’re about as technologically advanced as… something designed in the 60s that isn’t particularly technologically advanced (I couldn’t think of an appropriate analogy).
But this is actually the main appeal of these machines.
These are filter coffee machines built the way things aren’t generally built these days, solid, reliable workhorse machines made for people who like their machines to look and perform like machines.

Technivorm have been making the Moccamaster brewers since the 70s, so there’s a good reason they look so retro.
Personally I love the look of them.
I also appreciate the fact that the shower head covers a wider area than most filter coffee machines. Yes it’s also narrow, a bigger round shower screen would probably be a good idea, but there are mods available.
They’re quite brewers too, certainly quieter than the Sage Precision Brewer, as the Moccamaster machines don’t use pumps.
They’re hot plate machines, so if you’re someone who likes that style of filter machine, you’ll like this.
If, like me, you’re not a fan of leaving your coffee sitting on a hot plate, then you don’t have to, you can just take the jug off the plate, decant into an insulated jug, flask or travel mug.

In a nutshell, if you’re looking for an old-school filter coffee machine, I don’t think you can go wrong with a Moccamaster.
