This means you won’t have to worry about replacing it anytime soon! Did we mention they’re also easy to clean and operate?

As you may have noticed, the different models of the Moccamaster machines look quite similar to each other and may leave you thinking, what’s the difference between them? Here at Crema, we stock 3 top models: The Moccamaster Classic, Moccamaster Thermal and the new Moccamaster KGB Select. Let’s dive right in and find the perfect model for you!

Moccamaster Classic- The Perfect Match for Every Kitchen

Featured in an array of stunning colours, these machines are designed to enhance any kitchen, whether you want to keep it subtle or add a bright pop of colour. If you’re concerned about it taking up too much bench space- don’t be! Its sleek design means that its widest measurement is no longer than 32 centimetres, that’s just over a ruler length! This means that even if you live in a tiny home, this little gem will fit beautifully.

If you’re always in a rush, you’ll love the fact that your coffee will be ready in under 6 minutes! The heavy-duty copper boiler maintains an ideal brewing temperature of 90-95 degrees Celsius so you don’t have to worry about setting the correct temperature yourself.

As you know there’s nothing worse than brewing a lovely hot pot of coffee only to be sipping on a lukewarm coffee by the end of the pot. That’s why the Classic model has a hotplate which the glass jug sits on and has 2 different temperature settings to choose from. It will maintain the temperature you set for up to 40 minutes before automatically switching off. This will give you peace of mind in case you forget to turn it off on those busy mornings when you’re rushing to get out the door.

All in all, this is a fantastic brewer which will guarantee excellent coffee efficiency all while looking amazing in your kitchen. It is also currently our cheapest Moccamaster making it the perfect choice if you’re on a budget, so what are you waiting for?

Moccamaster Thermral Brewer- The One that Keeps Coffee Hot Longer (without a Hotplate)

The thermal carafe is what sets this model apart from the others. Made from sturdy double-walled stainless steel, this carafe is built with the purpose of keeping your coffee hot for a longer period of time without the need of a hotplate. This is ideal if you’re wanting to save on power or wanting to transport your coffee.

If you like to drink your coffee slowly and need it to stay hot as long as possible, here’s a little tip for you with this model: fill the carafe with boiling (or very hot) water for a minute or 2 before tipping it out and brewing your coffee. This will help the coffee in the carafe stay hotter for longer. With its remarkable resistance to breakage, it excels even the robustness of the tough glass carafes found in the other models. This feature also makes it the most practical model.

In contrast to the Classic model, the Moccamaster Thermal Coffee Brewer offers a more refined selection of colours. These include white, black or silver, catering to those who appreciate a timeless aesthetic. Its adaptability is further complimented by sharing the same compact footprint as the Classic model, allowing it to effortlessly integrate into any kitchen space.

Moccamaster KGB Select- The One for Full or Half Pot Brew

With all the benefits of the classic model, the KGB Select is the newest member of the Moccamaster family. It comes in a variety of colours and has the added benefit of being able to brew a half or full pot of coffee with the flick of a switch. This ensures that your precious coffee grinds are not wasted on a full-pot brew if you don’t need it. It also guarantees an accurate brew of either pot size option.

Now built smarter, the Select model has an intelligent hotplate which can accurately detect how much coffee is in the carafe and keep it at the ideal temperature (80-85 degrees) for up to 100 minutes. This means each time you pour a coffee from the carafe you don’t have to worry about it being cold.

The outlet pipe has also been updated and now has 9 holes that evenly distribute water over the coffee grinds, assuring an even better extraction. This puts nothing between you and a fantastic brew!
Finally, the Moccamaster Select incorporates an advanced automatic drip-stop-brew-basket which intelligently stops the coffee flow the moment the carafe is pulled away, delivering a mess-free brewing process. What’s not to love?
