What to Look For in a Single Serving Coffee Maker

A single-serve machine can make a cup of espresso in just a few minutes. It is also less messy and wasteful than a traditional pot of coffee.

Noah Kaufman, the editor of Epi's Reviews, is a fan of this machine with a pod design for its sleek and intelligent features. It can be programmed and will make a cup of coffee before your morning commute.

Pods

Single-serve coffee pods or soft pods, are made of paper and that are designed to brew a cup of coffee per. They are compatible with different coffee makers, such as those manufactured by Bunn Black & Decker and Philips. Soft pods can be reused and recyclable, unlike plastic or metal capsules which are thrown out after use. Some people do not like the idea of throwing away these single-use disposable pods that contribute to global waste.

One option is a single-serve coffee maker that comes with a grinder. This lets you grind your beans by yourself or make use of ground coffee instead of pre-packaged pods. Certain models come with a removable reservoir that is ideal for saving money on your daily cup. The size of the reservoir differs from machine to machine, so know the capacity of your preferred type of single serve coffee maker holds prior to purchasing.

The best single-serve machines have a variety of settings that allow you to modify your coffee's strength of the coffee, temperature, and the speed of brewing. For example, some models come with a My Brew setting that allows you to tailor the brewing process to your particular preferences and tastes. These features are great for coffee lovers who want to make their coffee as perfect as they can.

If you enjoy the convenience of single-serve coffee capsules but dislike throwing away plastic waste, consider a model that makes use of reusable coffee pods made from bio-based and fully recyclable materials. These pods might be more expensive than traditional capsules, but provide the same ease-of-use and high-quality cup.

If you're a busy professional who wants to brew a quick cup of coffee at work, think about buying a single cup coffee-serve espresso machine. This kind of coffee maker can produce a cup of intense espresso in less than one minute. It's faster than drip brewers. You can also create milk-based drinks, like lattes and cappuccinos.

Beans

The biggest drawback of single-serve machines is the amount of waste they produce. These machines can produce lots of plastic containers that end in landfills and have an adverse impact on the environment. If you're looking to reduce your environmental footprint, look for models with compostable or reusable pods.

You can also opt for machines that use beans to brew coffee. This is a great option for those who appreciate the taste of freshly ground coffee. These machines are larger and cost more than pod-based models. For these models, you will also require grinders and biodegradable or reusable filters.

A dual-brew machine is purchased to make both the pot and a single cup of coffee simultaneously. This machine is a good option for large families or people who enjoy drinking several cups throughout the day. It takes longer to prepare than other machines and requires more water and beans however it will save you money in the long run because you won't need to buy more pods or ground coffee bags.

This model comes with one-serve that can make up to 14 ounces of coffee and a carafe that is able to hold up to 12 mugs of regular coffee. It can be programmed up to 24 hours in advance of time and a travel cup can be set up on the single serving coffee maker-serve side for those who wish to grab a quick coffee prior to work or school. It also has a sizeable bean hopper and an easy-to-use touchscreen, allowing you to customize your beverage exactly how you want it.

Filter

The filter you use in a single-serving coffee maker can have a huge influence on the taste of your coffee. Certain machines have filter filters that are reusable for ground coffee or K-Cups, while others require disposable paper filters. If you're looking to reduce the amount of waste you produce and reducing your impact on the environment, look for a model that can accept your own reusable filter.

You'll need to think about the size of the cup you prefer. If you consume more than one cup of coffee in the morning or you intend to share your single-serve maker, you will want a brewer with a wider selection of serving sizes. The Mueller single-serve coffee maker, for instance, can make up to six 10-, 10- or 15-ounces of coffee. It can also make espresso shots as well as hot cocoa, in addition to drip coffee.

A speedy brew time is another factor to consider when selecting a single serve coffee maker. Some models can heat water and brew one cup of coffee in just two minutes, whereas other models may take a little longer to prepare a large carafe of hot coffee. If you're in a hurry you might find a model that uses disposable K-Cups or coffee pods to be the most convenient.

You'll also have to decide if you'd like a coffee maker with a built-in reservoir or one that requires you to add water. Some models have a removable tank which can hold up to 40 oz. of water. Some models have a reservoir, which must be filled every time you make one cup. If you are limited in space in your kitchen, a single-serve model that requires you to add water is a good choice. The BLACK+DECKER single-serve coffee machine is a good example. It occupies a small space on your counter and has an easy-to-use start button to make it easy to use. The machine shuts down automatically after the brewing cycle. It may be a bit more work to add your own water, as you'll have to measure and pour your own water.

Temperature

Temperature is the most important factor in coffee brewing. In order to enjoy the best flavor from your beans, you need to ensure that your water is at a suitable temperature. The higher the temperature, the more of the coffee will disintegrate in the water and the more flavorful the drink will be.

The majority of single-serving coffee makers come with heating system which heats the water until the ideal temperature for brewing of 195-205 degrees Fahrenheit. Certain models are more efficient than others at keeping water hot. One of the best machines we tested is the Mueller AdirChef Single-Serve Pod Coffee Maker, which was capable of keeping the water hot throughout the entire brew cycle. It was also the only machine to not require cooling down flushes (which requires running the water through the pipes).

The way these coffee makers heat their water is different when compared to other kinds of coffee makers. Instead of a pump, these coffee makers use the check valve, which only allows water to flow in a single direction. This valve is utilized in combination with a tubing and heater system. The heater is used to heat the tubing to the required temperature for brewing. At this point the check valve opens and the water flows through the system.

Certain machines have a digital display that will let you know how long it will be until the coffee is ready. This is useful when you're making several cups at a time or are worried about the temperature of your water. Some models also include an indicator light that can notify you when the brew is done.

Some machines provide different sizes of brew, ranging from individual coffee maker espresso shots to 16-ounce brews which fit in most standard coffee cups. Additionally, some machines can make milk-frothing for cappuccinos and lattes. A dual coffee maker is another option. It can be used both for single-serve brewing as well as carafe. The Technivorm Moccamaster Cup One is an example of a great dual coffeemaker, which uses two separate reservoirs of water and has a dial on the front that can switch between single-serve and full-carafe brewing.
