Single Brew Coffee Machines

This model is the ideal choice if you're looking for an all-in-one cup coffee machines machine that can brew coffee or tea to your liking. It is easy to use and comes with four different brewing options. It can also be used with single-pack or ground tea bags and coffee.

It can also be used with pods that can be reused. This is a great option for those concerned about the plastic waste that comes from disposable K-cups.

1. Keurig K-Select

This Keurig is a great option for people who want to drink coffee, but don't have the space or budget to purchase a larger brewing machine. It's the smallest Keurig available and measures just 13.6 inches front to back. This allows it to be tucked away in a small kitchen or office. It has a water reservoir that can hold up to 52 ounces and can prepare a single cup of coffee in just a few minutes. It has an "strong' option which increases the strength of coffee to match your preferences.

This machine has one drawback that it doesn't produce crema, the caramel-colored foam layer coffee drinkers believe adds flavor to their drinks. It's not a big deal, but it might be an issue for some people. It's simple to clean; you just need to unplug the machine and remove the pod holder. The machine can be cleaned by spraying it with a cleaning agent and wiping it clean. The needles used to brew can be cleaned and removed using a paper clip which is a great feature when your machine is becoming clogged.

Another issue with this machine is that it will only accept K-Cup pods which can be expensive. It does not accept the third-party pods that were introduced to the market in 2012 after the Keurig 2.0 Patent expired. If you are looking for a machine that can brew in different sizes or even a carafe, then you might have to look at a different model.

The Keurig K-Select also has the most user-friendly operation. It has two buttons one to power on the machine and the second to select the cup size. It is a smart brewer that shuts it down after two hours of use to save energy and the reservoir for water is a transparent display that indicates when it is time to be filled.

2. Cuisinart Grind & Brew

Contrary to many other single brew coffee machines that offer only the option to make use of pre-ground beans or off-the-shelf K-Cup pods, this one allows you to make use of both. This machine is perfect for those who are eco-conscious, have limited space, or love both filtering and single-served coffee.

This machine can grind whole beans into finely ground ready-to-brew grounds or brew pre-ground coffee that is stored in the removable tray. You can also use Keurig's off-the-shelf K-Cups and other popular brands of single-use pods. This allows you to make an espresso quickly or a pot of coffee without the need to clean a carafe.

The Grind and Brew's controls are simple and straightforward. All the relevant information is located on the front of the machine: brewing quantity (in increments of two) and power off/on as well as a brew indicator light and decalcification alert, and grinding settings. The machine can also make 12 cups of carafe coffee, and is programmable for up to 24 hours of advanced brewing.

The machine comes with a removable drip tray and capsule holder. It does not come with an cleaning brush, however you can wash the tray and holder by hand or pop them into the dishwasher. The machine is covered by a three-year warranty and is available directly from Cuisinart and Williams Sonoma Amazon Crate & Barrell and Target. The machine was packaged securely and protected by a molded pulp for extra protection during shipping. The packaging is recyclable. The machine and its contents were in excellent condition.

3. Breville Precision Brewer

The Breville Precision Brewer takes drip coffee to a whole new level. This machine features customizable settings to enable the user to make a perfect cup of coffee each time. There are six preset modes which include "gold,""fast,""strong,""iced,"and "cold brew." This brewer accepts cone as well as flat filters and features one cup option. In addition to these brewing options it also has six different basket shapes that can be used to highlight specific flavors in the cup that is brewed.

The machine utilizes a thermocoil heating and pump system that has a PID digital temperature control to maintain an accurate temperature of the water throughout the brewing process. This is a major selling point for premium drip coffee machines, since many coffee machines use heated plates to heat the water. This isn't the most efficient way to heat water as it can cause uneven the brewing process and also scorch your coffee. Breville Breville comes with a water-pump that produces a humming sound when it is making coffee. This is a nice feature, as it allows the user to be aware that their coffee is finished brewing.

The brewer measures about 12 7 inches by 16 inches and can fit comfortably in most medium-to-large kitchens. Breville also comes with two quick-start pamphlets as well as a comprehensive instruction manual to help get new users up and running quickly. The only drawback to Breville is the pump noise which can be a distraction when you reside in an apartment.

4. Aeropress

The AeroPress is a nifty little device that can make one cup of coffee at each time. It's a piston maker that makes use of air pressure to force the water through the coffee grounds and into your mug, giving it a distinct and clean taste. Many coffee lovers love Aeropress coffee for its well-rounded and balanced taste. It's an excellent option for travelers and campers because it's light, compact and rugged.

This manual brewer is easy to use. Add a scoop of freshly ground Cupper's coffee to the inverted AeroPress Chamber, stir, and then add hot water.

One of the best things about the AeroPress is that it lets you to control the strength of your coffee, whether you're making a weak French press or a strong single-cup pour over. The unique design of the device speeds up the process by reducing the amount of time that the coffee is in the filter.
