The Moccamaster KBGT 79314 Black coffeemaker features a thermal carafe and an automatic drip-stop brew-basket that stops the flow of coffee if the carafe is pulled away. The KBGT brews a full 40oz pot of Coffee in six minutes. The thermal carafe will keep your Coffee hot up to an hour. To keep Coffee hot for longer or traveling with your carafe, switch to the included travel lid. All Moccamaster Coffee Brewers are handmade in the Netherlands and backed by an industry-leading 5-year.
Note: 1)Too coarse a grind, too little coffee, or insufficiently tamping the grounds before brewing can all lead to inadequate pressure for a proper brew. 2)It is important to note that the amount of espresso extracted will vary depending on the grind size and amount and reprogramming may be needed when the size and amount are adjusted

BUT THIS COFFEE MAKER!!!
This coffee maker is the crème de la crème of all coffee makers. If youâre debating on purchasing, STOP NOW AND DO IT.I spent hours upon hours of researching for the best coffee makers out there. I was tired of dealing with cheap coffee makers that were once known for being great.I purchase the best quality coffee. Just so happens that a friend owns his own coffee plantation and roasts his beans as well. Itâs amazing coffee from Panama and I wanted to get the full flavor of his coffee.I took the plunge and ordered the Moccamaster Technivorm with the 10 cup capacity. Here are my takeaways:-Brews FAST-Brews exactly the cups that you want. If you want 4 cups, you get 4 cups.-Itâs HOT without adding hot water.-Itâs easy to assemble-Itâs easy to clean-Brews the coffee exceptionally well with zero bitterness. You get the full flavor of your grounds.Perks:Iâm typically a little coffee with my cream and sugar type. Being diagnosed as borderline type 2 diabetic had me changing up things. I love heavy whipping cream as my creamer and Iâm usually a heaping 2 tablespoons of sugar gal. I switched to erythritol a year ago, with half sugar. This coffee maker has me doing leveled teaspoon of erythritol and a 1/4 of a teaspoon of sugar. I feel like Iâm actually going to be able to go to only erythritol, then maybe no sugar at ALL with this coffee maker. Never in a million years would I have thought that possible.So, although itâs pricier than your average coffee maker, itâs worth it in many ways. Iâm getting my coffee grounds fully brewed. The taste is exceptional. I have already reduced the amount of sweetener.Run and buy this coffee maker!!

Fantastic coffee maker, with one important usage tip
I’m an engineer who has worked from my home office for more than 20 years, and coffee is an important part of my day. I typically brew either 6 or 7 pots of coffee at home per week, and I have e-cycled more than my share of coffee brewers that failed after a year or two. I invested in this model after reading a lot of online reviews and reading its documentation, and I’m quite happy with its quality and the quality of the coffee it brews.As an engineer, I appreciate designs that anticipate the need for preventive maintenance as well as repair. The Moccamaster is easily disassembled for cleaning, and easy disassembly also means easy repair. Removable parts fit together with simple, clean interlocks, gravity, and (in one case) friction, and the friction fit drip nozzle arm is metal-to-silicone, not cheap plastic. After months of heavy use, I can see no signs of wear, nor is it becoming loose or sloppy.The coffee tastes great. I would not consider myself a coffee scholar, but I know what I like, and I care enough to purchase whole-bean coffee from a local roaster and to grind each day’s coffee fresh in the morning, not in batches. Insulated thermal carafe, rather than an actively warmed pot, is the ONLY way to go if you care about coffee flavor, unless you are sharing with others and will drink a whole pot in a short time. Coffee that is continuously heated after brewing will rapidly acquire a stale, burned taste. It’s vile!This carafe is very well insulated. I brew a pot in the morning, fill an insulated mug right away, then replace the open brewing cap on the carafe with the thermal-sealed lid. The remaining coffee in the carafe is still nicely warm at noontime or even at the end of my workday and remains drinkably warm until I finish the last of it in the evening. (For reference, I don’t mind if the coffee is just warm rather than staying hot — it’s worth it to avoid the stale taste.) The fully sealed thermal lid is important, and without it the coffee would not stay warm for long.There are some minor things I think could be improved about this model, and one “important usage tip” that I will share with other purchasers here.First, I wish there was a way to slow the rate of water flow into the grounds, to brew a slightly stronger pot of coffee. That’s personal preference, of course. This brewer does a nice, smooth brew using water at the correct temperature, but since I take the trouble to buy good coffee, I’d prefer if the water spent more time in the grounds to absorb a bit more of that richness.Second, I’d like to see a pouring lip on the carafe. The carafe is made of spun stainless steel, and the pouring rim is a perfect circle. It works fine with the open brewing cap in place, but once you swap for the thermal cap, you have to unscrew that just the right amount to avoid a wider stream that can miss the cup. The circular lip doesn’t really help to narrow the stream, whereas I think a modest outward bend in the lip, opposite the handle, would take care of this problem. I’ve done some sheet metal work as a hobby and have considered trying this as a DIY modification, but since it’s stainless steel I’m nervous about deforming the threaded fitting for the lid.Finally, I’ll offer this tip about a problem I encountered, and how I’ve solved it.Every so often, I found that the coffee would overflow the filter cone and make a mess all over the countertop and floor. At first, I thought the valve under the filter was becoming clogged, but careful cleaning didn’t solve the problem. My next theory was that the filter paper was pressing too tightly against the inside of the brewing cone and blocking flow, so I checked to make sure there was a gap at the bottom of the filter paper (there are small plastic ribs inside the cone designed to assure clearance around the sides of the filter). This still didn’t solve the problem.I tried varying the grind, thinking perhaps I was grinding too fine and the coffee itself was obstructing the flow, but that didn’t help, either.I finally figured out what was happening and solved it. The problem was *too much* gap at the bottom of the filter, not too little! The rate of water flow in this brewer is such that the coffee filter *almost* fills to its brim during normal operation. When there’s too much gap below the filter paper, the pool of water and coffee grounds touches the drip nozzles, and there is enough volume displaced that it can overflow the paper cone. *Then* the exit hole becomes plugged, and you’ve got a mess.The solution was simple: When placing the coffee and filter into the brewing chamber, gently press it down to be sure it is seated fully, and that the filter’s seam is bent aside to allow it to settle all the way into the plastic housing. I’ve not had a single overflow since I figured this out.Aside from the very minor quibbles (not being able to increase brew strength, and the lack of a shaped pouring spout on the carafe), I’m quite happy with the Moccamaster overall, and I am glad I finally spent the money to get a durable, well-designed coffee maker. I debated between four stars and five stars, but the two minor quibbles were not enough to deduct a star from a product that is working very well for me and which I use almost every day.

A Truly Great Coffee Machine
A truly great coffee machine. I’ve had mine several months and am still in love with it. Makes consistently delicious coffee; works right out of the box. You don’t really even have to read the directions. I did because I was so excited to have it. lol. I love the design – both form and function.I bought this mostly for health reasons. I’ll go there and circle back to COFFEE.So, most coffee makers allow the hot water to interface with all the plastic components. Hear me out. It’s common sense. Heat increases the leaching of bisphenols (BPA, BPS, BPF), phthalates, dioxins, and other toxins (microplastics) that get stored in us. Not good. Estrogenic, toxic > crushes hormones, ED, estrogen dominance, liver/kidney damage, neurotoxicity, immune suppression, cardiovascular damage, microbiome damage/leaky gut, INFERTILITY, prostate/testicular/breast CANCER. This device uses BPA-free plastics where any surfaces interface with water/coffee.Ok. Let’s talk coffee. I LOVE this machine. Ugh. So great. I mean, yes, as with any brewing device, you have to get the grind size right. With most commercially ground coffee’s, you’re good to go. Just get the amount of coffee right. I’ll come back to that.I buy specialty whole beans and grind them. Too course: weak and under-extracted. Too fine: over-extracted and bitter. Again, critical to brewing coffee: you have to get the water-to-bean ratio right. Sorry. Some people just don’t know this stuff. If you like strong coffee and are grinding your beans, I’d chatGPT what that ratio should be. Buy a cheap digital scale on Amazon. I measure to get the correct dose based on what I like.But aside from all of that, this machine brews to perfection. The water gets heated adequately to extract whereas with a Mr Coffee type machines, not so much. The word I’d use to describe the coffee I get from the Moccamaster: SMOOTH. More words: Delicious. Mind-blowing. My wife loves it as much as me. I don’t see how you can go wrong with this machine.Oh, and get the one with the carafe! (this model, duh) Why? Coffee sitting on any burner BURNS in some ridiculously short amount of time. You don’t want that. Think convenient store coffee. No.So for that reason, I love the carafe. Keeps the coffee warm. Comes with a different lid for that. So they provide a lid that allows the coffee to brew and drip into the carafe and yes, you can pour perfectly from that after it brews. But if you wanna keep it hot for long, you use their other cap. You just tighten and un-tighten to pour.Can’t go wrong. Hand assembled. Great warranty. Looks cool in your kitchen. People swoon 🙂 You will swoon.

Allow me to begin by emphasizing that the choice of coffee maker you make is not limited to the quality of the beans alone. It has a significant impact on the taste of your coffee. And I can confidently say that after conducting a blind taste test, I have become a firm believer in this notion!When it comes to the flavor of your coffee, the coffee maker you select plays a vital role. To prove this to myself, I conducted a blind taste test using three different machines: the Technivorm Moccamaster, Bonavita, and my girlfriend’s Black and Decker.I purchased the Technivorm Moccamaster as a replacement for another well-known brand, the Bonavita BV1900TS 8-Cup Carafe Coffee Brewer, which I initially acquired at the end of 2018. Unfortunately, the Bonavita failed after just one year, and the courtesy replacement I received started experiencing intermittent issues after three years. It was clear that an upgrade was in order.Luckily, I was able to seize the opportunity and purchase the Technivorm Moccamaster during an Amazon Prime Day deal. At the time of this review, it cost approximately $50 more than the Bonavita. I was seeking a coffee maker that not only produced exceptional coffee but also offered reliable performance for its price. Given my previous experiences with two Bonavita machines in just four years, the Technivorm’s five-year warranty provided me with the reassurance of its quality.The real question, when investing in a higher-priced unit like this, is whether it truly delivers a noticeable difference compared to less expensive alternatives. I can confidently affirm that the difference is nothing short of astonishing.Although the Bonavita consistently brewed great coffee, it wasn’t until I sampled coffee from my girlfriend’s Black and Decker that I truly grasped the stark contrast in taste. It was a difference between delight and disgust. This made me wonder if the Technivorm could live up to its renowned name.To find out, we conducted a blind taste test with equal amounts of water and coffee grounds. Each cup was numbered, and we sampled them one by one. The Technivorm emerged as the clear winner, with the Bonavita coming in a close second, showcasing its ability to produce excellent coffee. On the other hand, the Black and Decker unit produced disappointing results.The Technivorm not only finished brewing approximately 30% faster than the Bonavita runner-up, but it was also quieter, emitted minimal steam, and did not fill the basket with hot water like the Bonavita did. This likely explains why the American Kitchen review I watched mentioned that the Technivorm maintained the right brewing temperature for about 70% of the brew cycle. As a result, the coffee from the Technivorm was slightly hotter from the carafe and exhibited a notable smoothness in flavor. Although the disparity was not as pronounced as with the cheaper machine, there was an undeniable finesse to the taste of the Technivorm that became apparent in a direct side-by-side comparison of black coffee.Speaking of the unit itself, I appreciate its unique appearance on my countertop. If I were to express a personal preference, I would love to see a glass water reservoir, but that’s merely a minor inclination. The unit is straightforward to use, just like the Bonavita, featuring a no-nonsense one-button start without unnecessary features like timers. It simply excels at brewing great coffee!My girlfriend made an astute observation regarding the Technivorm’s power switch, which remains in the on position and is triggered to turn on when the carafe is placed in the holder (thanks to a pressure switch). This design feature allows you to plug the Technivorm into a secondary timer and have it prepare your morning brewâa convenience that was not possible with the Bonavita.In conclusion, I am confident that you will love this coffee machine. Although it is still relatively new in my possession, I’ll need to give it a year before updating my review. However, based on my current experience, I am thoroughly impressed!I hope you find this review both insightful and helpful. Happy brewing!

This is truly the best coffeemaker! I never really thought that a coffeemaker would have such an impact on the quality of a cup of coffee. I figured it was solely based on the quality of the beans. Wow, I was wrong! After our coffeemaker broke down I did some research on different machines and found the Moccamaster received thousands of positive reviews. The price was higher than I anticipated paying for a coffeemaker, but I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the Moccamaster 10 cup with the thermal carafe. Although I am not a regular coffee drinker, I do know delicious coffee when I taste it. My husband is a daily coffee drinker and I have never heard him say âthis coffee is amazingâ, except when we go to specific coffee shops. This machine is so very simple to use, no bells or whistles, just straight forward and to the point. It seriously makes an amazing cup of coffee. Perfect temperature, perfect flavour. Pair it with a high-quality bean, a small scale (It’s really super helpful in making a consistently good cup), a quality grinder and you have yourself a delicious cup of coffee. We discovered that filling the machine with water to the 8 cup line and using 60 grams of whole beans is the perfect ratio for us. My husband finally uttered the words, âdamn, this is amazingâ. Itâs also a bonus that this machine is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
