Best Coffee Makers for Noise Level (2024)

The cleato wave, as expected, is a little sweeter than these guys.

The extraction time was a little longer, and that definitely contributes to the sweetness I'm finding in the cup here.

The mouthfeel of the Kalita is a little bit heavier than that of the Origami.

Little ones take 24 grams of coffee, and how many ounces would that be? It would be 13 and a half.

This is the 155 model, and the big ones take 42 and 700 milliliters.

The 185 model can handle up to 24 ounces.

The ridges keep the filter from clinging to the side and give it a place for the water to flow down.

Pre-moisten the filter, and let's hit the GS Rio's with a nice big bow.

Standard, let's do our thing. We're going to tear the zone, right?

They have focused on creating glass versions, as well as stainless steel and ceramic options, right?

The bridges are here. Once you talk about those, the ridges keep the filter from clinging to the side.

Stainless and ceramic, right? Yeah, the bridges are here once you talk about them.

It makes great coffee.

An average Aeropress brew will last approximately 2 minutes, which is faster than most methods, and it's enough to give you a full-bodied cup with beautiful complexity.

If you're not getting a pleasant cup on your first try, you're most likely doing it wrong.

The word is that it's twice the volume of the existing AeroPress.

It has been a limitation of the brewer.

Brewing with the AO press is as simple as it gets.

The AeroPress Clear does not come with the hilarious funnel that I'm going to use to put my coffee in, even though I don't need to.

This new material is superior to the one they used in the original.

It doesn't necessarily feel more premium than the previous AeroPress model.

This is a really great cold brew maker for smaller spaces.

The rainmaker lid evenly distributes the water over your ground, eliminating the need to stir.

It's really good; it's low in acid, as we'd expect from cold brew.

It holds approximately 24 ounces of cold brew concentrate.

My glass carafe is going to store up to about 16 liquid ounces of coffee.

It's a very easy device to assemble.

This is a spring-loaded cold brew maker, so once you have a batch of cold brew ready, you can simply place it on top of the included carafe, and it will pour out for you.

It's just made of plastic, so it's very lightweight.

There is an inner mesh filter that is removable, easy to clean, and easy to change if needed.

The Toddy also stands out for its filtration method, as it employs both a paper and fabric combination, resulting in a clean and smooth cup of concentrated cold brew.

The Toddy requires a bit more attention during the setup.

The reward, though, is a concentrated brew.

The Toddy is designed for those who like to brew in bulk.

This will hold about a pound of coffee, equivalent to 9 cups or 2.13 liters of water.

It might be a bit bulkier in appearance, but that extra size means you can prepare a good amount of cold brew to last throughout the week.

It's a really easy and convenient way to make cold brew at home.

The Toddy setup is a bit more involved, especially with the draining process.

If you did not use those, then obviously you're going to have a fun time trying to clean this out.

The newer models come with a nice lid.

Lastly, you have the actual glass carafe, which is really nice.

These are quite expensive, and they won't be readily available at most local grocery stores.

It will provide you with a great cup of coffee every day.

Sometimes it takes a little bit of practice to perfect this, even if you're using all the math that I've talked about here.

I've got the 12-cup size, the 8-cup, the 4-cup, and the 3-cup.

When I say a cup, I'm referring to 4 ounces.

That's how easy it is to make a classic cup of French press coffee with the original French press.

Spend a little time experimenting with it, because that's how you're going to get your perfect cup of coffee.

The glass carafe is important; you want a well-designed one because that's how you'll ensure you can get a really decent cup of coffee.

We have the stainless steel, and here we have the copper finish.

The pour is so clean, with no dripping, and super smooth. The best part is the coffee itself.

Thanks to the micro filters on this French press, nothing gets through, and you get very smooth and delicious coffee.

I decided it was time to get a larger French Press, so I went with the Espro.

I've already used this for two weeks, so let's get into it.

It is super easy to insert. It does have that pour spout that you want to have in the right place, and it goes down so smoothly.

It's so easy and quick to clean. Just snap it together, and it's good to go.

When you open it up, you see just how beautiful and high-quality it is.

I am confident this will be our French press for the next 10 years.

The coffee it was producing was remarkably good and surprisingly similar to a single pour-over.

The water distribution is not exactly ideal.

One possible negative of the Mocha Master is that it uses a hot plate.

This is a great brewer if you are someone who occasionally brews a full pot for family or others and sometimes brews half a pot for yourself.

The selector switch is an excellent way to ensure that you don't brew too much.

This warming plate is actually on a separate heating element from the boiler.

The first-time setup and assembly were dead simple.

The user experience of the Mocha Master is decidedly simple.

The parts here are very easy to remove and clean.

The Mocha Master is about as classic-looking as you can get in a modern-day batch brewer.

I was unpleasantly surprised by how cheap and plasticky certain components felt.

The rest of the build, however, is good.

This machine includes pre-infusion.

Every time you make a cup of coffee, it adjusts and changes the grind size if it determines that a change is needed.

What’s a little unfortunate is that if you ever start making a drink and then decide you want to do something else—like if you just grind but then decide you want to make a different type of drink instead—there’s no way to just abort.

The frothing process does take a little time.

This is the water tank here—it fits 37 oz.

The Ninja Lux Cafe is a 3-in-1 machine that features espresso, drip coffee, and cold brew.

I would say that the machine is extremely easy to use.

Ninja has a variety of videos to showcase, step by step, how to use this thing.

It can be a little intimidating, but I have to say that as you work with it, it's actually not that complicated.

It is definitely a really cool-looking piece with a truly eye-catching, rich feel.

It is actually very conveniently sized.

It really looks great in any kitchen, as you can tell it has all the bells and whistles.

It can perform four different brew styles: classic, rich, over ice, and specialty.

This device actually brews K-Cups as well.

The iced coffee from this machine is one of my favorite drinks it makes; it really does a good job.
