Bonavita: The Coffee Brewer for Purists

Bonavita 8 Cup Coffee Brewer

There are so many different coffee machines out there on todays market, that it can make it difficult to find the right one for you. It can be so overwhelming that where does one even look to start? How can you be sure that your coffee machine has all the right features, buttons, displays, and brewing settings? Well sometimes less is more, and that is exactly the kind of ideology that Bonavita uses when making their coffee machines.

Sometimes having coffee machine with all the bells and whistles isn’t a good thing. After all a good cup of coffee is just a mix between filtered heated water and coffee beans. The all new Bonavita 8 Cup Coffee Brewer is the answer to all of the coffee purists prayers. First off, the brewer itself is extremely minimal in design: there are no dials, there isn’t a screen, and there is only one button. That button turns the coffee machine on and allows it to start brewing. The 8 Cup Coffee Brewer has a powerful 1500-watt heater that allows the machine to brew coffee at “optimal temperatures of 195°-205°F” according to Bonavita. The 8 Cup Coffee Brewer also has a “pre-infusion mode” that wets the ground coffee beans before brewing to allow for degreasing. There is also a flat-bottomed filter basket and a expansive showered to allow or even distribution of water. The machine is made from durable stainless steal and the pot itself has thermal lining. This is also Bonavita’s most expensive coffee maker at $180 dollars.

This coffee brewer is as bare bones as it gets, and sometimes thats a good thing. In this case it is a good thing as these coffee machines often get high praise and this machine was even recognized by the Specialty Coffee Association of America for being part of its certified home brewer program. If you are a coffee lover then you can’t go wrong with the 8 Cup Coffee Brewer or any of Bonavita’s products.
