Everyone enjoys a fantastic cup of coffee every so often, some other than the others. However, with so many options on the market, it’s hard to make a buying decision. And let’s face it, it’s not only the coffee maker. It’s the skills and the ingredients as well. If you want to get a great coffee maker, you can’t go wrong with one of the SCAA approved machines. But those are expensive and you need to buy on a budget. There are a lot of coffee makers that didn’t go through the testing lab of the SCAA , but can brew a mean cup of joe. This is what this page is about. Remember? Ingredients are also very important in the process. Good water is more important than we think. The best coffee is made with spring water or plain tap water that has been run by way of a filter. And let’s not forget about the beans. You can’t expect to get a great cup if you use stale coffee beans that sat on the shelf 3 months. So buy fresh, and good quality beans. Happy brewing
