Zojirushi - EC-ESC120

Zojirushi makes the best drip coffee & you can replace individual parts if needed. Have had mine since 2017 and its still going strong. Timer options so it brews automatically in the morning is also helpful so you can just get up and go without worrying about making it in the morning.

My Zojirushi is a beast. Not one issue in 5 years of daily use.

Have the same one, can’t recommend it enough. Especially if you need your coffee to start before you wake up.

I second the Zojirushi, stays warm forever too

I have a Zojirushi. Makes good coffee, brews into a thermos and stays hot all day.

I love my Zojirushi with the thermal carafe.

Holy shit.  I just bought one at full price after a painful research project.  I fucking love it.  I am jealous of your price.

So far so good.  I thought it was funny in their video they went on about how good the pour was from the carafe.  Then I used it and was like damn that is a good pour.  It makes good coffee.  The removable water container is the best part.

There are some coffee makers that are not SCA certified that come close or pretty much meet the specs. Like the Ninja 12-Cup, or the Zojirushi 5-cup and 12-cup options. However, I agree, the rest mostly not great because they don't get hot enough.

I love my little Zojirushi. Not fancy but certainly gets the job done. I had my first one for nine years (I dropped it while cleaning and it cracked beyond repair) and am on year 2 of my second one.

I have a Zojirushi 12 cup, and have had it for almost 10 years now. Still brews at a high temp, and works the way it did when I bought it. I love the idea of the Moccamaster but we use the program feature daily and Moccamaster does not have that. The design is user friendly and pretty easy to clean. I only have had to replace the carafe because I smashed it, but the replacement part was easy to get so no problem.

Check out the zojirushi one. It's got most of the same features for less money. The moccamaster one is better, but given you aren't using it all the time, I'd save the cash. Edit: they don't seem to sell the model I have anymore, the one that competes with the moccamaster is now $200.. I paid $100 for an older model that was the competitor at the time and it's been great.
