Pods & Grounds Specialty Single-Serve Coffee Maker

I have a Ninja Single-Serve machine that will do pods or grounds. So far I have only used it with grounds. Mine will do up to a 20oz cup. My mom has a larger version that will do a single cup with grounds or pods, but can also brew a whole pot with grounds. So far, I’m really liking mine, but I’ve only had it a few months, so I’m not sure on the longevity, though I’ve had good luck with other Ninja products in the past.

MM is a quality maker for sure, but if you don’t want to spend big bucks my suggestion would be an OXO grinder and a Ninja specialty coffee maker. The Ninja makes good coffee and you have several different batch sizes to choose from. That’s the setup I have and I’m very happy with the results I get and it comes in at less than $200. Not everyone can afford to pay $500+ for a grinder and coffee maker.

This is a good answer, but not sure it's better than a K-cup filler pod thing. I've had Ninja K-cup machines in the past and liked them, but not BIFL unfortunately. The Ninja K-cup machines I had brewed super quickly, faster than Keurig's do.

Try the Ninja Coffeemaker, I love mine it's not huge and I've had it for 6 years with no issues. I clean it every other month and as I have hard well water. The only downside is if you have low cabinets over where you place the coffeemaker, the vented steam from the lid might cause issues. I just pull mine forward when brewing.

Idk I swear by my Ninja coffeemaker after Mr. Coffee and other name brands failed after a year or so of purchase. Going on 6 plus years now, with only one water leak that I was able to resolve by clearing out the water inlet, as long as I clean it regularly my coffee never tastes bad. Even using ground Aribica coffee from BJs club, it tastes good enough for me.

No it hasn’t been worth in my opinion. I am a coffee snob, only buy beans from my fav micro roasters, grind my own beans, am careful not to let the hot plate burn for taste. I have not tasted any improvement from the much cheaper ninja drip coffee machine that I replaced. I kinda wish I went with a different brand. The moccamaster seems to be marketed more on “longevity”, the ease and ability to clean, quality of manufacturing. But lacking in my opinion in a few features, for example ability to brew without the hotplate on. And the head that drips water is an odd shape that I can’t help feel is not optimal for spreading water across the entire reservoir.
