Product Information

Instead its design allows the water tank to be easily removed for filling, and the filter holder to swing out from the main unit so adding grounds and discarding them afterwards is straightforward. It’s prone to grinding too quickly and too coarsely – a workaround is to set it for the maximum amount of cups, which is 12, so that it grinds more coffee for every brew. There are a number of preset functions that brew great coffee straight out of the box, Gold, Fast and Strong have pre-programmed variables. The V60 was invented by the distinguished Japanese manufacturer Hario, who initially made glassware for science labs – so you know they know their stuff. It’s a handsome piece of kit and is famously the coffeemaker of choice for James Bond, getting a mention in From Russia, With Love.

From warding off inflammation to creating a hostile environment for cancer cells, the claims are bold – and to date, not backed up by robust science. It would have been nice to be able to see inside the reservoir to see how water filtering is coming along, but as the jug is larger than most, you won't need to refill it quite so often – although that also means it won't fit in an average fridge door. It’s purportedly 60% quieter than one of Russell Hobbs’s previous grind and brew machines – although it still makes a whiny sound as it works. The water filter jug looks good and is made of BPA- and phthalate-free plastic with a stainless steel handle.If you just want a classic automatic machine, then scroll down the page, but if you want the best filter coffee possible, you may want to consider something a little different. For those who like to wake up to fresh coffee or have it ready for a mid-morning break, a programmable timer is essential. The water then drains through, dripping coffee into the receptacle below – and the results can be as good as filter coffee gets.

Any brew method that uses a paper filter does lend itself to lighter or medium roasted coffees as the paper will reduce the amount of oils that pass through into the cup and result in a clean and bright coffee that can highlight more delicate flavours notes that can be found in light roasted coffee. At MaxiCoffee, our history and experience have convinced us that coffee is so much more than coffee. Tea-lovers needn’t feel neglected as filling your kettle with filtered water can reduce nasty limescale build up.Filtered water is your best option, to prevent any minerals contaminating the taste, but if tap is the only option, that’s fine too. The filter is refillable, and two types of filter are available, for either clean water or alkaline.

If you’re looking for the best of both worlds – convenience coupled with a good-quality cup of coffee, the Melitta Look V Timer should be at the top of your list.The lid of this smart-looking jug is available in muted tones of blue, grey or green, the body is made of good-quality, sturdy materials, and it's simple to use. Although filter coffee machines are seen as more simplistic there are many options and features to consider when selecting the ideal fit for your household. The Melitta Aroma Elegance has a timer function so you can wake up to that smell of coffee otherwise just hit go. Firstly the showerhead creates an even spread of water on the coffee grounds ensuring the optimal extraction. There’s also a strength adjuster, AromaSelector, on the top of the machine but we found it to be more effective when brewing smaller amounts of coffee – at its full capacity of 10 large cups (125ml) or 15 small cups (85ml) it made little difference to the flavour.
