What to look for: The Moccamaster produces a clean, bright filter coffee, so it works beautifully with coffees that have good clarity and sweetness. Single origins are a natural fit, but well-crafted blends perform wonderfully in batch brew too.

Our picks for Moccamaster

  1. Smith & Evans Full Bodied & Vibrant

    Our flagship blend is a natural here. The Brazil, Colombian and Ethiopian mix produces a full-bodied, smooth batch brew that works for everyone — perfect for households or offices where different people want different things from their cup.

  2. Papua New Guinea Full Bodied & Vibrant

    Kimel Estate beans produce a velvety, naturally sweet and syrupy filter coffee. Rich and deeply satisfying — excellent black.
