By last count, there are more SCA-approved automatic coffee brewers than you can shake a stick at (it’s a technical term). Until recently, the bugaboo of automatic brewers has always been the water temperature; your Mr. Coffees just weren’t designed to get water up to the 195-205°F that proper brewing required. Except for the Technivorm Moccamaster. The iconic Dutch coffee maker has been brewing high-quality coffee since before Erna Knutsen first utters the words “specialty coffee.”
And now, 60 years later, the mid-century modern styled brewer is as popular as ever. To celebrate the anniversary, Moccamaster is releasing a limited edition diamond coffee brewer.
It’s a fiting colorway for such an occasion; the 60th anniversary is the diamond anniversary after all. The all-new shimmery silver finish of the KBGV Select brewer comes in a limited quantity, with only 2,000 units to be made. And to make sure your brewer stays functioning as well as it looks, Moccamaster is kicking their warranty up a notch, going from the standard five years to a hand-numbered “exclusive liftetime warranty.” Like with all Moccasmaster, the Diamond Edition is hand-built in the Netherlands, using “high-quality, sustainable materials.”
The Moccamaster KBGV Select Diamond Edition is available for purchase via the Moccamaster websit for $379. For more information or to order your own, visit Moccamaster’s official website.
