Moccamaster KBG Select vs Cup-One: Which Coffee Brewer Should You Choose?

Moccamaster KBG Select filter coffee machine in Baby Blue — KBG Select in Baby Blue: a carafe brewer for multiple servings.

Moccamaster Cup-One single cup filter coffee machine in Matt Black — Cup-One in Matt Black: a brewer designed for one serving at a time.

KOPI Coffee Roasters is the official Moccamaster distributor in Georgia. Our current range includes the KBG Select in Baby Blue and Cup-One in Matt Black. Both brew filter coffee, but they suit different routines: a carafe to share or one cup at a time.

Moccamaster KBG Select: for a carafe

The KBG Select is a glass-carafe brewer with a capacity of about 1.25 litres. Its Select feature lets you choose a full or half carafe brewing setting. It is a good fit for households, brunches, or anyone who likes to make several cups in one brew.

Choose the KBG Select if you often serve more than one person, want coffee ready to pour from a carafe, or prefer making a batch rather than brewing each cup separately. The glass carafe sits on a warming plate, so pour and enjoy the coffee while it is fresh.

Moccamaster Cup-One: for one serving

Cup-One is designed to brew one serving at a time, with a brewing volume of about 0.33 litres. It comes with small glass cups for serving. It suits people who usually make coffee for themselves, want a compact brewer, or prefer preparing a fresh single serving instead of a full pot.

Choose Cup-One if you value a single-cup routine and rarely need a larger batch. Remember to check the product package and market specifications for exactly what is included.
