I have this machine for over a year now and in combination with a proper grinder it is a fantastic drip. It’s handmade in my homeland and you can buy all the loose parts when needed. Techni vorm also services the machines by hand and are approved by the European coffee brewing centre in Oslo.
Not sure when you mention adjusting the spray arm as per manual as it's doesn't mention adjusting this at all in the manual.
I just got a moccamaster select & I'm so excited about it! When I put the carafe in, it bumps the brew-stop notch & sort of oushes the brew basket up a little, which causes the brew basket to seem a bit wobbly to me. Is that normal?
Yes. You always want to put the filter basket in and slide it toward the water reservoir just to make sure it's engaged. If you don't seat it properly it won't be able to release water from the filter basket into the carafe, and the filter basket will overflow (and make a mess). What you're feeling/seeing is that trigger engaging.
So I make 3/4 liter per the manual instructions but it doesn’t specify if I should select the half carafe or full carafe setting. Do you have any suggestions?
1-6 cups is actually on the "half" setting, and the 7-10 is full setting. (Don't quote me on this, but it has stuck in my head from having read it somewhere and been kind of surprised that it isn't actually 1-5 and 6-10).
I bought the KGB version in Russia and it made me make coffee for coffee machine instead.
LMAO
👏🤣
Can someone help me? So I fill it up to “6” on the water line. I do about 3 full scoops of the beans to grind, using the scooper that moccamaster provides. Does this sound about right? I don’t need it to be 100 percent perfect, just 90 percent is good Enuff for me. Thx!
Save yourself the headache and just buy a $20 kitchen scale. Volumetric measurements are inconsistent and not accurate and you'll just get varying quality coffee every morning. Much easier to just quickly weight it out and know what you're getting every single time. 60g of coffee to 1L of water is the standard; adjust grind/dose from there.
@@matthagge4792 measuring this on a scale would cause me a headache. Just wanted to know to get it sort of right.
@@ESW206 I find it a lot easier to use a scale since you’re taking out all the uncertainty and inconsistency, and you’re adding zero extra time to your workflow. But hey, you do you. Nobody can really tell you how many scoops to use since they don’t know how much those scoops have in them, hence the scale. In realty not using a scale is a headache.
@@matthagge4792 I posted my question almost a year ago. Someone else gave me tips, without a scale. So far it’s been great!
@@matthagge4792 sounds like an extra step for me
I have been enjoying mine so far... I cant own a Ferrari... but I can own the Ferrari of drip coffee makers 🙂
What does the V stand for in KBGV Select?
Valve I think.
It has a shutoff valve on the hopper that stops the drip when the carafe is removed.
This is from 8+ years ago but explains what the letters mean in the naming conventions. This was made BEFORE the introduction of the KBGV Select so does not include the V designation back then. The V and the word "Select" are essentially indicating the same thing, that the machine gives you the option to switch between half or full pot when brewing.

I'm a teacher. I NEVER brew a half pot ;)
This foo never even brewed coffee smh.
The Moccamaster doesn't evenly distribute water onto the grounds. You have to open the lid while it's brewing hot water on the grounds and use a utensil to help make the brew bed even. It makes no sense to pay top dollar for a machine that doesn't even work right. I ended up going with the BPB instead.
So you down voted for that? All he was doing is giving tip on using it.. GROW UP!
These machines last your whole life so imo it is worth it to pay top dollar for them.
Your BPB doesn't even brew hot coffee.. but I do get your point. I have the Technivorm One Cup and I have to shake it a little to get it all wet. I'm thinking a good fix for this would be a shower head type attachment.
@@deadcoww Yes, I bought serval different versions of the Technivorm and found the shower head is an issue for all of them. Also, the BPB is more customizable and has Gold standard setting like the Technivorm. The build quantality on the Technivorm is more superior though.
@@kylester89 I'm happy you found a machine that works for you!
First one 🌚🌚
Hey kids, I purchased this same model 5 years ago and to be honest, A $20 dollar "Mr Coffee" coffee maker brews just as good of a cup of coffee if you use quality coffee. My wife uses a Mr Coffee and I used to use this overpriced machine and ultimately this one doesn't get much use.
yeah, nah. I've brewed all kinds of coffee in all kinds of machines. This one brewed a cup of coffee on my second attempt that was so good I will spend the rest of my life trying to equal it. I've seen a Mr. Coffee review recently. 50% of the grounds never even got wet in the basket.
@@stevedavis8329 That's great! What's your address? I'll send you mine that I don't use.
Andy’s taste buds must be shot. This easily produces best drip coffee
