However, it’s an expensive option, and lacks the tactile controls of other options I’ve tested.
Does the Technivorm Moccamaster KM5 live up to its coffee-brewing counterpart, though?
I put it to the test to find out.
Fine grounds in the Technivorm Moccamaster KM5.
Technivorm isn’t the cheapest brand, but this European coffee giant knows how to make a brilliant brew.
The grinder can also grind directly into a glass container, meaning it’s a fairly mess-free option.
The colors are silver, white and black.
Instead, I’d recommend the likes of theEureka Mignon Specialita.
In terms of control, this machine keeps it (very) simple.
Prepare to get up close and personal if you want to see exactly where your dial is sitting.
The static levels were also pretty manageable.
For the Moccamaster, it was obvious that my fine grounds wouldn’t work for espresso.
Instead, they’d be good for an AeroPress or V60.
These grounds were very consistent.
Again, my medium grounds were very consistent.
How does the Technivorm Moccamaster KM5 compare?
For the money, you might want something smarter.
The design is sturdy and well-built, the static and retention very low, and noise moderate but inoffensive.
