Product Information

Full details

The Moccamaster KBG Select is designed for serious home coffee enthusiasts who prioritize consistent temperature precision and long-term durability over automated smart features. This handmade appliance delivers a perfectly balanced cup by maintaining a precise brewing temperature between 92°C and 96°C, though its manual nature means it lacks programmable timers or mobile app connectivity found in modern entry-level machines.

FAQs

Can I use permanent filters with this machine?

While paper filters are recommended for the cleanest taste and easiest cleanup, you can use gold-tone or permanent mesh filters if they fit the #4 size basket.

How long does the hotplate stay on?

The hotplate is designed to shut off automatically after 40 minutes for safety and to prevent the coffee from becoming bitter.

Is the water reservoir removable?

No, the water reservoir is fixed to the machine. You must use the carafe to pour water into the tank.

Where is the Moccamaster manufactured?

All Moccamaster coffee machines are handmade in the Netherlands.

What coffee grind should I use?

A medium-grind (similar to the texture of sea salt) is ideal for optimal extraction in this drip machine.

Troubleshooting

Coffee is not hot enough

Ensure the hotplate is switched on and the carafe is sitting flat. If the issue persists, ensure the machine has been descaled recently.

Water is overflowing from the filter basket

Check that you are using the correct size #4 filter and ensure it is properly seated against the walls of the basket before adding grounds.

Brewing takes longer than expected

Mineral buildup may be restricting water flow; perform a thorough descaling cycle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Consistent brewing temperature ensures optimal flavor extraction
  • Extremely durable construction designed for longevity
  • Select switch offers versatility for different batch sizes
  • Simple, intuitive interface without complex digital menus
  • Easy to clean with modular, removable parts

Cons

  • No built-in timer for automatic morning brewing
  • Manual water reservoir filling required for every batch
  • Higher initial investment compared to standard plastic coffee makers
  • Larger footprint on the countertop than compact models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Moccamaster involves a quick initial rinse: run one full reservoir of water through the machine without coffee to clear the internal lines. For daily care, rinse the glass carafe and the removable filter basket with warm, soapy water after each use. The machine uses standard #4 paper filters, which are widely available. To maintain longevity, descale your machine every 100 cycles—or more frequently if you live in a hard water area—using a non-acidic descaling solution designed for coffee equipment. Avoid putting the plastic parts in the dishwasher to prevent warping; hand washing is recommended to keep the components in pristine condition for years.
