Optimized for the Amount You Need
The KBGV Select is the only coffee brewer certified to brew both a half and full carafe to the Specialty Coffee Association's Golden Cup Standard. What that means to you - the most delicious coffee possible, no matter which amount you brew.


Tested and Approved
We evaluate Moccamaster coffee brewers across the four T’s of coffee brewing: temperature, time, turbulence, and total dissolved solids (TDS). A brewer that performs within the ideal ranges of the four T’s produces the perfect ratio of coffee flavor compounds extracted into water, which the SCA refers to as “the golden cup.” That ratio creates the flavors we enjoy when we sit back with a good cup of coffee, and every Moccamaster hits that mark every brew cycle.
The Coffee Brewer for Coffee Lovers
Since 1968, Moccamaster coffee brewers have set the global benchmark for at-home coffee brewing. Designed to extract the maximum flavor from your grounds in about 4-6 minutes, coffee from a Moccamaster is comparable to what you would brew using a more complex manual process or drink in a café.
We build our coffee brewers to last, using only the highest quality materials and offering replacement parts. With proper care and maintenance, this should be the last coffee brewer you ever need to buy.
- Moccamaster coffee brewers are handmade in heart of the Netherlands.
- Our brewers have a durable metal housing and use a copper boiling element to heat the water, which allows for consistent water temperature control.
- All plastics are BPA, BPS, BPF, and phthalate-free.
- We individually test every brewer before it leaves our factory.

Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2025Size: 10-CupColor: Stone GreyVerified PurchaseI have been looking at this coffee maker for some time and pulled the trigger once the price hit my target range. It is very simple, brews very fast, and produces great coffee. No clock or timer so I plugged it into a smart outlet and have it on a schedule through an app, works like a charm. Only watchout for this is if the coffee maker reaches auto shutoff time before the outlet is turned off, the next day will not brew right, have to cycle the power button. I have since programmed an off time for the outlet or turn it off manually when I fill my last cup of coffee.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2024Size: 10-CupColor: JuinperVerified PurchaseI know, I know! These things aren't cheap. You can buy a nice coffee maker that will turn itself on before you get up in the morning for somewhere around a third the price, and it will be "pretty good." However, they tend to be difficult to clean (esp. the water tanks) and largely made of plastic with rubber pipes. There is plenty of plastic on the Moccamaster, too...but all very hi grade. Better, the internal "piping" is copper, and less prone to contamination from calcium deposits, etc. One factor with a lot of budget coffee makers is the difficulty of cleaning the water tank: mold can grow where it is damp and warm for extended periods: the Moccamaster's tank isn't easily;y removable, but it IS easily cleaned with a soft sponge (nice wide opening). What e have here is great engineering, incredible longevity (or so owner's say) and really great tasting coffee.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2023Size: 10-CupColor: OrangeVerified PurchaseI love coffee. My wife loves coffee. And over the years we’ve tried to love many, perhaps dozens of coffee makers. The cuisinart grind n’ brew, the oxo smart pour over. Mr coffee, Hamilton beech more cuisinart. Vac pots, French presses the list goes on. We didn’t discriminate. Some were ok for a while. Some awful right away. None lasted very long (and 3 weeks in the longevity jury is out on the Moca master too) the last 4 or 5 machines, I already had my eye on the moccamaster, but couldn’t bring myself to cross the 300USD rubicon on a coffee machine. How good could it be really right? After our last machine died at the beginning of April (the entirely mediocre Cuisineart pour over) we went for it. An orange Mocamaster KVBG. There’s no going back. It’s the best coffee machine I’ve ever had. By a wide margin. 1) the coffee is hot. Like really hot. Our last machine didn’t break 180F when brewing. This machine is consistently 201F (we are around 200ft above sea level if that matters to you), it’s also relatedly strong and flavorful. 2) it brews quickly and quietly. The machine brews 10 cups in under 4 minutes it’s less than half the time our prior machine took. 3) the coffee stays really hot: the heating plate is running on its a separate heating element and circuit from the brewer heating element and both are very powerful. Coffee is held around 180 for 2 hours 4) this is one I wouldn’t have thought much about but it’s not unimportant. There is a very limited amount of plastic contacting the hot water or coffee. The heater body is metal. Heating elements are copper, the hoses are silicone and the brew head is stainless steel. The only meaningful contact with plastic is when the hot coffee enters the carafe (the cover is plastic). This is a major improvement over every other machine I’ve ever used. Which had aluminum heating coils inside plastic heater tanks, plastic spray heads etc. 5) the aesthetic. It’s not retro. It never changed. It’s unreformed. It is a big Orange middle finger from the 1970s sitting on your kitchen counter. There is no WiFi. There is no app. There’s not a clock. Simply an on off switch (and a pot size adjuster which may or may not really do anything). I find it refreshing: last year when our washing machine broke it was a struggle to find one that wasn’t internet enabled. Why do I want an internet enable washing machine?
So far I couldn’t be happier. Somehow it feels like a good value for the 350USD (as of April 23). If you’re on the fence. I’d go for it. You won’t look back.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2025Size: 10-CupColor: Polished SilverVerified PurchaseI got rid of my Breville Brewmaster Precision Brewer and replaced it with the Moccamaster KBGV Select. I couldn't be happier. First and foremost the brewmaster allowed for setting the temp but never made a cup hotter than 136 degrees unless you brewed a half carafe or more (approx, 32 ounces). Granted, the Brewmaster is bigger but what is the point of having a temp setting if it doesn't work. I wasted a ton of coffee just to get something hot (and no, the microwave ruins the coffee).
This beautiful unit however can brew a single cup at a piping 186 degrees within 4 minutes; and it tastes great! The only downside is that you have no control over the bloom. Basically blooming is soaking the beans for a set amount of time before releasing to the carafe. I typically bloom for about 30 seconds. But here is a trick, start the brew before putting the carafe under the maker and you have a poor man's bloom! I never wait long enough to have it overflow over the top. This is pretty much unnecessary on this coffee pot as the coffee comes out great every time.
Finally I have found a simple coffee pot that simply does what it was designed for without over architecting needless technology or any gimmicks.
Some other tips:
Never put tap water into these machines. Use distilled water and you will rarely if ever have to descale the unit.
If you grind your own beans you can simply set the grinder to a set time for the measure. No need to use the spoon or anything.
Everybody has a favorite coffee roaster. I stumbled upon Two Brothers out of Chicago and they have a consist process that gives me exactly what I am looking for in coffee. I use other brands for espresso.
Enjoy your coffee!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Consistently the best coffee everyday
Size: 10-CupColor: Stone GreyVerified PurchaseOur grind and brew machine died on us and so we started using a French press and/or Areo press. Both options worked fine, but I like to make a pot in the morning so my wife can have a cup, and I can take the rest to work in a thermos.
I started watching reviews on drip coffee makers and came across this unit. Everything about it was appealing.
-THE LOOK- Aesthetically, it's stunning. Timeless, classic look. It's very clean, the textured finish looks very durable, doesn't finger print, and the color choices are excellent. (I wanted the pistachio color but once I pulled the trigger couldn't wait for it to be shipped so opted for my second choice). While brewing it looks neat as the water bubbles up the center column and into the outlet.
-THE BREWING OPTIONS- Very basic controls, but the half pot select allows you to not only brew a half pot, but modifies blooming duration. From there the sky is the limit with grind options and strength without all the buttons and programming. It's also pretty fast- full pot in 6 minutes.
-THE TASTE- I've had it 5 days and have made 7-8 pots... It's the best tasting coffee (obviously the beans, grind and everything can make the difference... but when I have a Tim Hortons or Starbucks it's just not the same) and I drink black coffee.
-THE DESIGN- If it ain't broke... this design has been around for 50 years and is hand made in the Netherlands and comes with a 5 year warranty. It's not ground breaking but that's the point. Keep it simple. Quality parts, copper heating element, and separate elements for water heating and the carafe. The removable water outlet arm is a nice touch if it gets a fingerprint on it or if your need to clean- simply pop off.
-THE PRICE- Ok, so this is super expensive for "just a coffee brewer" but personally I'd rather spend big money on a quality piece that has service able parts, rather than a machine 1/3 the price that may only last 2-4 years. This is a lifetime machine if cared for. Personally I drink at least 3 large black coffees/ day. Starbucks dark roast black is $4.00 CAD. It'll pay for itself in no time.
-THE ONLY NEGATIVE- The glass carafe seems really fragile and thin. I'm paranoid it will break. I do not allow anyone to operate my machine as I'm scared they wouldn't be as careful as I when I rinse it.
So if you buy pre ground coffee and want an easy pot of coffee, or like to grind fresh and experiment in grams per liter, ground size etc... but must have the best- buy this.
