My mom and I are getting my dad a Technivorm coffee maker for his birthday. But I need a suggestion on the model and where to purchase, any recommendations?
Thanks all!
Thanks all!
I bought the KBT-741 from Boyd's. Love it.
Please excuse my ignorance and the hijack, but can the Technivorm make coffee better than pouring water of the proper temperature through the grounds in a conical filter basket?
The pour over filter holder method is really for one cup. I like that I can use very hot water and fiddle around with it. It makes a very decent cup with a two second cleanup.
The Technivorms do not come with built-in timers, so I also recommend an appliance timer if you like to wake up to fresh coffee. This set up works just fine.
Moccamaster KB741 10 cup capacity (Euro standards), Dual Temperature hot plate with automatic heat booster with quiet brew cycle. Certified by the Specialty Coffee Association of America.
Not sure how good an idea the timer is. You will not be waking up to "fresh" coffee as the grounds will have been sitting for many hours (losing much in aroma and flavor) as will the water.
I know the basics and I actually have the setup to use the pour over method, but I don't know how much ground coffee to use per cup.
7 grams of coffee to 4.5 ounces of water
