We asked food writers, instructors, and self-proclaimed coffee snobs about the best single-serve coffee makers, including Bodum Chambord French Press, Grosche Milano Stovetop Espresso Maker, Chemex Classic Pour-Over Glass Coffeemaker, and more.
I have lived with a Bodum French press for about four years now, and though it is really the easiest thing in the world to use, I always find a way to mess it up. I’ve shattered it’s glass body twice, and have made coffee rife with floating grounds in it countless times. Fortunately, I tend to live with people who are very capable of making totally fine-tasting coffee for me with the thing.
“I am a coffee snob, and a couple years ago, I bought a Nespresso Aeroccino machine for making froth and a stovetop Moka pot for making espresso; the system has worked fine, but the espresso can take awhile to make and there’s definitely a learning curve to it. [How] does this machine do [in comparison]? Absolutely stellar. Brewing is super quick and the espresso always comes out with a beautiful crema on top.While it’s a good chunk of change, I honestly believe it’s worth it. This is a high-quality machine that will hopefully last a very, very long time. Love love love!”
The little plastic coffee dripper will let him brew directly into the mug of his choice, without using a fiddly pour-over kettle.
