Well my Oxo barista brain pooped out and I cannot get any response from customer service to fix it. I can no longer go without my trusty coffee maker. The Oxo made lovely coffee but I feel the UX could be improved. First the Oxo functionally wouldn’t make more than 7 cups at a time. Second the water tank tended to pick up coffee dust and due to the design was nearly impossible to clean out. Last the carafe design caused it to hold a little old water no matter how much I shook it, which I didn’t care for.
In replacing it I sort of narrowed down the options to the Moccamaster, the Breville Precision Brewer, and the GE Cafe. The Cafe doesn’t have many reviews online so that concerns me and I don’t love how heavily they use copper accents on the machine. The Breville seems quite bulky and has more settings than I would really prefer (I can just imagine my kids playing with the buttons one day and it never being the same again ).
I am drawn toward the Moccamaster because I know it has a long term reputation for good coffee and a simple beautiful aesthetic. I do wish it had the ability to set a morning timer though.
Does anyone have experience with the Moccamaster? Are you happy with the product? Is it possible to clean? Would you buy it again?
Or do you have experience with any of these other 2 machines?
