Melitta

The fourth quarter is an optimal time for the company’s Ready Set Joe Single Cup Manual Coffee Brewer, which it is positioning as a great gift idea for the holidays. To make coffee with this unit, you set the filter cone on top of the cup or mug, line it with a Melitta paper filter and place coffee grounds evenly in the bottom of the filter. Pour hot water in a swirling motion over the coffee grounds, taking about a minute to fully extract the flavor from the grounds. It can be used to prepare coffee at home, at work, at school or on the go. Many coffee houses throughout the nation are using single-cup manual brewers such as the Ready Set Joe to prepare a “pour-over” for their customers. melitta.com

Bodum

Color combines with refreshment in Bodum’s new Bean Ice French-press coffeemaker. Available in green, black, purple, red, orange, blue or yellow, the Bean Ice is specifically designed to simplify the cold-brew method for preparing iced coffee. Cold brewing is a Japanese process in which coffee slowly pours through a finely woven filter. Unlike preparing hot coffee and then chilling it, the cold-brew method eliminates the bitterness caused by hot water and enhances the coffee’s chocolate and caramel flavors, which delivers smoother and richer-tasting coffee. The Bean Ice has a 51-ounce capacity and comes with a seal-tight lid for use during the cold-brew resting process. bodumusa.com

KitchenAid

The brand’s 12-cup thermal carafe pictured here is one of several models in a new generation of premium coffeemakers that will reach retail in the fourth quarter.  This collection is designed to make brewing coffee easy, with features such as a removable water tank, variable brew-strength settings and a flat brew basket—the latter of which maximizes flavor extraction from the coffee grinds. The removable tank is easy to clean and fill, allowing for fresh water for every brewed pot. The flat brew baskets, which load from the front, permit spill-free filling and easy cleaning. In addition, the plastic molded spout ensures dripless pouring, reducing mess and increasing the product’s ease of use. kitchenaid.com

Bosch

“Bringing the coffeehouse to you” is the intent behind the company’s Tassimo T20 brewer. The new unit enables coffee lovers to prepare barista-quality beverages in their own homes. It features Tassimo’s patented T DISC technology, which brews single cups of premium coffeehouse-quality beverages ranging from real-milk cappuccinos and lattes to espresso, crema, tea and hot chocolate. It takes about one minute for the T20 to prepare each cup, with virtually no heat-up time. Its compact design is ideal for apartments, dorm rooms and countertops with little space to spare. Bosch has also partnered with Kraft Foods to offer more than 40 hot-beverage T DISC flavors, so there will be more flavors to come. bosch-home.com/us
