Why we love it

The Precision Brewer gives you almost as much control as the Fellow Aiden at a lower price, and its Gold Cup mode is SCA-certified out of the box. The steep-and-release valve is clever — it holds water in contact with grounds when you're brewing small volumes without the carafe, acting like an automatic clever dripper. The thermal carafe is outstanding; coffee stays hot for hours without flavor degradation.

Pros

  • SCA-certified Gold Cup mode for one-button great coffee
  • 6 brew modes including iced coffee and cold brew
  • My Brew mode lets you dial in bloom, temp, and flow rate
  • Excellent 60 oz thermal carafe with outstanding heat retention
  • Steep & Release valve for single-cup brewing
  • Dual filter baskets — cone and flat bottom included

Cons

  • Large footprint — needs counter space
  • Water reservoir is not removable (fixed to machine)
  • Cold brew mode is more gimmick than useful
  • Heavy at 10 lbs
