Drip coffee makers, single-serve machines, and cold brew systems
Toddy has been the commercial cold brew standard since 1964. We tested it for high-volume home brewing.
Bodum Chambord is the French press design most others copy. We tested it for months of daily use.
The OXO cold brew pitcher with rainmaker distribution. We tested it for 60 days of daily cold brew production.
The AeroPress Original has a cult following among baristas. We tested one for 60 days across 180 cups to find out why.
Excellent coffee does not require expensive equipment. The best coffee makers under $100 for drip, pour-over, immersion, French press, and cold brew — with specific model recommendations.
SCA-certified drip coffee makers meet rigorous brewing standards that most cheap machines fail. The best options from $80 to $310 including Moccamaster, Breville, Bonavita, and OXO.
