Toastess TFC-326 Personal-Size 1-Cup Coffeemaker, Black Review

I love coffee. And, I'm kind of an elitist when it comes to coffee. I can only use really good beans-- right now I'm using Lavazza, but my every day coffee is starbucks brand. The problem is, I cannot produce a good POT of coffee for the life of me. I don't know why. I use filtered water. I clean out the carafe. My regular every day machine has a water filter. I don't know why my pots of coffee are horrid compared to my husband's pots of coffee, which taste as if they came from the local coffeehouse/espresso bar.
So, after getting a free senseo (YUCK!), and giving it to a friend, I bought this little coffee maker. IT makes a really good cup of coffee I have not messed up even one time. And, I use it 5-10 times per day. It is just excellent. I've been looking at the higher priced one cup makers, such as the Tassimo, but I'm not sure I need it. With freshly ground good beans, this little coffee maker does the job.
This coffee maker, by the way, makes a hot cup of coffee-- definitely as hot as every full-size coffeemaker I've ever had. I'm wondering if the other reviewer just got a machine that didn't work too well. Or, maybe he just likes it from boiled water. Whatever the case, if you're used to drinking coffee made from regular drip machines, this one is fine.
I've had this coffeemaker for at least two months now, and I literally use it 5 to 10 times per day. I keep expecting it to break, because it's definitely not made expensively, but it keeps going. I think it's a great choice for someone like me or someone in an office.
This comes with a durable reusable gold-colored metal filter.

The perfect size for home, office, RV, or dorm-room use, this single-cup coffeemaker quickly brews one delicious cup of coffee at a time--no more wasted, leftover coffee turning bitter in a pot. Brew directly into any favorite mug--most will fit inside the compartment--or brew into the ceramic 10-ounce mug that comes included. The unit accommodates a variety of mug sizes and comes with an extra base to fit large mugs. In addition to making coffee, the appliance also produces hot water for tea, hot cocoa, instant soups, and more. Other highlights include an illuminated "on/off" switch, a water-level window for easy filling, a permanent nylon filter, and a small footprint that takes up minimal space on the counter or desk. The personal-size coffeemaker measures 5-2/7 by 6 by 8-2/7 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty.

Swissgold KF300 1 Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker Review

Swissgold is best known for their 24K gold permanent filters. I use one in by Bunn drip brewer because unlike paper filters the gold filter does not impair any filter taste. I purchased the Swissgold KF 300 to use when I just want a single cup but to tell you the truth it makes a better cup of coffee then my Bunn drip brewer. The reason for this is because coffee should be brewed at a temperature between 200 & 205 degrees. My Bunn brewer unfortunately only reaches a temperature of 190.
You heat the water on the stove until boiling point take it off the burner and let it set for 30 seconds or so to let the temperature drop a little and then pour it into the KF300, it is as simple as that. The only negative thing I can say about the KF 300 is I wish it brewed a little more coffee at a time. When you fill up the reservoir it holds about 8 oz. I cheat a little and add a little more water when the level drops because I use a 12 oz mug. If you want a single great cup of coffee I highly recommend this brewer.

The Swissgold KF300 is a one cup pour over drip coffee maker featuring the famous swissgold permanent coffee filter. Popularized by Melitta, pour over drip coffee makers are a favorite brewing method for many coffee aficionados. Simply put ground coffee in the filter, position the filter over your favorite mug (fits most common mug sizes) and pour hot water over the grounds. An insert in the filter mechanism has holes spaced out to regulate water flow and create a shower head brewing effect for even coffee grounds saturation and extraction of full flavor. If your current drip coffee maker is not brewing hot enough, this may be the way to go since you control the temperature of the water used for brewing. The filter pieces come apart for easy cleaning. Another quality product from Swissgold.
