How To Choose Between Coffee Makers

When choosing which coffee makers for you, there are so many choices. You need to decide on the style of coffee maker and then compare brands. I will look at the different styles of coffee makers to help you make a choice.

The most common variety of coffee makers on the market for the home is the drip coffee maker. This is also one of the cheapest and easiest to use. Just place pre-ground coffee beans in a filter, fill the maker with water, press a button and watch as the jug slowly fills with fresh, aromatic coffee.

When comparing drip coffee makers, get a model that uses a built in mesh filter that can be re-used. Some models use paper filters that must be replaced after every use. This can create a problem if you run out of paper filters which inevitably happens.

You will need to decide what size you need. The standard sizes range from 4 cups to 12 cups.

Percolator coffee makers enjoyed great popularity in years gone past, but the advent of the drip coffee maker has taken some of the gloss of the old style percolator. The idea of the coffee percolator is to force water under pressure through the coffee grounds, as many times as required to obtain the required strength. It uses higher temperatures than other forms of brewing and some say provides a fuller bodied taste, but experience is required to prevent over extraction.

A recent popular development in coffee makers is the Pod Coffee Maker, and the K-Cup maker. The Pod maker allows you to make a single cup of coffee using a pre-prepared sachet of ground coffee beans. These are easy to use, easy to clean, and provides a great flavored cup of coffee. Once the machine has warmed up, it only takes from 20 seconds to 60 seconds for the machine to make your coffee.  The K Cup operates in a similar fashion, with the maker piecing the top and bottom of the K Cup, allowing the water to pass through the ground coffee. The temperature of the water can be changed as required to change the taste of the end product.

A French press is a simple but effective way to brew your coffee. The French Press is also known as a coffee plunger, press pot or coffee press. The French Press or Plunger is a glass beaker that has a lid with a metal plunger inserted. The metal plunger has a fine metal mesh on the base to infuse the coffee beans with the boiling water.

The ground coffee beans have longer contact with the water with the style of coffee making, the flavor stronger, and if you leave the brew in the plunger for too longer, it may become bitter.

Finally, the espresso machine is a popular home coffee maker that produces a great tasting Italian style coffee. Taste is varied by changing the grind size, and varying the pressure that the water is forced through the grinds.

The most common type of espresso machine uses a pump for brewing. You can get a single or dual boiler. The double boiler allows you boil water for brewing and also brew water for steaming the milk.

Look at getting an automatic espresso coffee maker or even a super automatic espresso maker. The automatic variety uses a programmed amount of water. The super automatic espresso machine grinds your coffee for you and adds water. Just add coffee beans and water.

So here are some of your choices. Good luck with your search for the best coffee maker for your needs, and a great cup of coffee.
