Coffee machine w/ bean hopper & grinder?
I am looking to purchase a good drip coffee brewer that also contains a built-in bean grinder. I have a grinder currently but, as messy as it is, so long as I am buying a new machine I want one that has the entire operation built-in.
I was wondering if any of you have any experience with any specific machines and could offer me any recommendations (or steer me away from troublesome machines).
NOTE: I currently own a DeLonghi Magnifico espresso machine (which was about $1200) so I do not want/need an espresso machine. The Magnifico does make coffee but it does so by the cup – I want a machine that produces coffee in a carafe.
Cuisnart is a good brand for home use that has the grinder feature. You can pick them up for a little less than a hundred. Still have to do some extra cleaning of the grinder in between uses. The Starbucks Brand Dehlonghi is very similar but cost a lot more with little or no additional features.
However with that said I still believe the easy and less effort is to grind your own then transfer it to a brewer. It will still be less work due to the fact on both brewers water gets in where the grinders are causing one to do lot of extra cleaning.
If you want great coffee at home the Bunn wins hands down. fast brewing time and the coffee is hot. They extract well and cost around 150.00.\
If you want great tasting coffee; try prewetting your coffee after putting it in the filter and inside the brew basket. Let this set . This causes a chemical reaction that will give you a coffee house taste. The commercial brewers at Starbucks and other highend coffee shop have this feature built in to ensure this beginning process. A few of the bunn brewers and Fetco brewers for home use does this as well.
You may also check out http://www.thecoffeemakers.net for more Coffee Makers reviews is the web address I believe where a lot of reviews are posted. Amazon also does a good job of posting consumer reviews of coffee makers.
Good Luck in your purchase. Enjoy the coffee.
