Capresso On-The-Go Personal Coffee Maker, Silver/Black

This is the best coffee machine I've bought. Although it's a drip system, coffee comes out very quickly for a great cup of coffee. I love that it's 16oz too; it was the only machine i found with the capacity of a larger cup of coffee. I buy the small sized coffee filters, trim them a little, and the left over ground comes out of the included basket without any scrubbing. Very happy with this purchase.

My wife and I had to cut back on coffee consumption and stopped making a whole pot in the morning. Also, I need to drink half caffeinated and she usually takes full strength. We decided a one cup maker would be the way to go. We didn't like the wastefulness and expense of pods. We gave this a try because we'd used a Capresso maker for many years and were happy with it. This is a very basic machine. You put the grounds into the reusable basket, pour in the water, put your cup on the stand (don't forget this part!) and push the button. No brew settings, no beeping to let you know the coffee is ready, no hot surface to try to keep the cup warm. There is also no valve under the filter to keep it from dripping when you remove the cup. We've just gotten in the habit of emptying the grounds before we take the cup out from under the machine most of the time. Oh, as others have mentioned, the travel cup that comes with this is REALLY terrible! Capresso should do better. So it's got it's flaws but...we really like the way the coffee comes out. The temperature is right and it brews at the proper speed to let the flavor come though and it's easy to use.

This is a very good compact coffee maker for home or travel. If not for a few design flaws, I would give it five stars. I initially bought this for travel, but find myself using it in place of my Cuisinart full-sized coffee maker when just making coffee for myself. It works great in hotel rooms, or when when staying at other people's homes/rentals while traveling. It can even work at rest stops, provided a plug-in can be found. The pros: small size, very quiet, nice mug, and great coffee once the nuances of making it are learned. It even works well for a second mug using a 2nd run-through of the original grounds if a small amount of new grounds are added. It takes 5 min or less to brew a mug of coffee which is much faster than my full-sized coffee maker. The cons: the included filter leaks grounds into the mug, the top of the coffee maker will not stay up, and there is no auto-shut off which can cause drips and spills to occur if the mug is removed before all the liquid has flowed from the basket above. For me, the worst issue is the propensity of the water and grounds overflow the brew basket. This results in the grounds backflowing into the water reservoir causing a messy cleanup, plus a nasty amount of grounds in the mug. All these issues can be overcome, however. I use a small paper basket filter which works much better than the included filter, and have learned to grind my own coffee to the proper coarseness. It took some hit and miss to figure this out. Finely ground coffee does not work well at all with this maker since it tends to float over the top of the basket. Adding only 2.5 to 3.0 teaspoons of course coffee grounds (1-tsp = 1 flat scoop) normally prevents the backflow issue. If you add more than 3 scoops for the first run, it can be risky. On the second cup, you can add another 1/2 scoop or so and still have good coffee without having backflow issues. I normally fill the mug to only 3/4 full when adding water to the reservoir. Any more than this can result in backflow issues or overly weak coffee. The hot water flows through the basket and into the mug rather quickly, so there is still some "oomph" remaining in the grounds after the first mug is made. The grounds are course, after all. I fashioned a small tube which can be inserted into the hinge of the lid to keep it from falling down while adding grounds to the basket, or cleaning/drying the coffee maker. With all these work-arounds, I am very happy with this unit after using if for almost a year now.

Just purchased a new Capresso to replace my old one than finally died after at least 6 years. It's easy to use, compact and makes a great cup of coffee. Since it has a reusable filter basket, any type of coffee can be used and made to your taste preference. Hope this one lasts long as my previous one, I imagine it will. Highly recommended.

Garbage, don't buy. Didn't last 4 months. If I could give a zero star, I would. I could brew coffee through a busted rubber better than this junk could brew. STAY AWAY!!!

I purchased this higher end coffee maker because the quality of coffee makers under $30 that I previously purchased have been awful. I only use this to make hot water for tea, and pour over coffee. I find it less messy then dealing with the filter and cleaning coffee from a coffee machine. Pros: * The water gets hot enough to make a great cup of coffee or tea. It seems hotter than other similar products I have used before * Good quality compared to the cheaper models I have tried. The plastic seems thicker and it looks like it will last longer than a cheaper coffee maker. * It looks great on a counter top. * The mug is durable and good quality . * Seems to brew a bit quicker then other brands I have tried. Cons: * Very difficult to see the inside water line. I place the water in the cup yet only 3/4 full and then pour the water in the machine then make sure that it is not overly full. Because the water line is very difficult to see I make sure to keep a bright light on, and prefil the machine during the day when I m awake so I dont over fill the coffee maker prior to my first cup of morning coffee when I m sleepy. You definitely have to be awake with a bright light to barely see the water line. * The on / off button ( red button on the side ) does NOT automatically turn off you have to press the button to turn it on and off AND there is a second ! Button under where the mug is that lights up in blue you have to press that to start the brewing cycle. That automatically shuts off after the brewing cycle. However you still have to then turn off the red button on the side manually! I find this extremely annoying because I purchased this because of the auto off button. I should have read more about the buttons prior to purchasing. Yes the brew button is automatic yet the on / off button is not * The only button that lights up is the brew button which is in the front.* The on/off red button on the side Does NOT! Light up. Which is annoying because the lit button is a reminder to turn it off. Overall it seems to be better quality then the cheaper models / brands and will last longer. Because of the temperature of the water it seems to make a better cup of coffee. Classy looking. It's worth the extra $ s because of the quality. However it will take some time to get used to. I m hoping that eventually they will improve this to at the very least come up with a clear water compartment to show how much water is poured. I'm not sure if I ll be able to get used to dealing with the extra on off button or not. I ll keep this coffee maker yet I ll probably look for a better quality coffee maker even if it is not a 1 cup machine that is simple and has 1 button instead of 2 and that one button being an auto shut off button.

I have had a full size Capresso machine for the last 22 years and the flavor of the coffee it makes is really so good! I brewed my 1st cup in this coffee to go machine, and it is no different than my full-size coffee pot. I use a little less water because I use half-and-half in my coffee and it was so hot when I put the half-and-half in it made it still very hot. Normally I have to microwave my cup of coffee after I add my cream with the regular coffee pot, but this makes hot coffee the thermos kept it hot the entire 45 minutes. It took me to finish my cup. Whether you do this pot or any other Capresso coffee pot, you can’t go wrong with this brand it makes a spectacular cup of coffee!!!! I actually bought this one for the fifth wheel because my regular size one took up so much room but I still needed an awesome cuppa coffee every morning and evening highly recommend!

I decided to try this single brewer after having spent hundreds of dollars replacing Keurigs. 7 to be exact over about 10-12 years. I swore off single brewers this past spring when I had to throw out yet another Keurig. However, I missed my single brewer so I started looking for other options. I have a Capresso coffeemaker that I love and have had for years. Like 15 or more with no issues, so I decided to see if they had some type of dongle brewer and to my surprise they did. No it does not use “k cups” but I personally look at that as a plus because it uses regular coffee. It does have it’s own filter and it just takes a little experimenting as to how you like your coffee but it comes out nice and hot into the stainless coffee “mug” that comes with it. I’m giving it 5 stars for size (much smaller footprint on the counter), hot coffee, cup provided, and pretty easy to use. Hoping it lasts longer than those Keurigs.

Se conserva caliente el café en el termo, práctico y rápido. Lo compré para consentirme.

This coffee maker is simple, makes strong hot coffee in no time and is so easy to clean. I love the full stainless steel travel mug that comes with it. It also takes little space on the counter. I definitely recommend it!

En mi casa sólo yo tomó café, es muy útil y rápida cuando solamente necesitas hacer 1 termo. Muy fácil de limpiar y evitas las complicaciones de otras cafeteras. Ocupa poco espacio.

Well made - compact - good value for money

I use the product to make my morning 16 oz coffee. ☕️ I love the fact that it makes a large 16 oz mug of coffee. Many products only make small liquid sizes. The only thing that could be improved is the temperature of coffee, could be a little hotter. Nice product…🥰
