We are coffee buffs and when we travel, one of our aims is to discover specialized coffee shops. We also like to prepare excellent coffee when we\u2019re at home, and to do so we use a Moccamaster. Many of you will already know it but for those of you who are hearing it for the first time, we\u2019ll give you some more details, both about its history and its use and benefits.<\/p>\n
Technivorm<\/em> are the manufacturers of the Moccamaster<\/em> and it was founded in mid 1964. At that time, few homes had electrical appliances so Gerard C. Smit,<\/em> its creator, who was also a visionary and a coffee lover, decided to create this great coffee machine in the back of his garage.<\/p>\n The first filter coffee machine was launched on the Dutch market in 1969 and was so successful that Mr. Smit<\/em> decided to export it to Scandinavian countries. Four years later, and due to the fuel crisis, he put his creativity to work and decided to replace plastic with aluminium. And that is how the Iconic Moccamaster\u00a0<\/em>was born, the KBG 741. <\/em><\/p>\n Moccamaster<\/em> counts with 150 staff members, and they are in fact a family. For example, Mr. Smit\u2019s <\/em>son in law is now the General Director of Technivorm<\/em> and his grandchildren are also actively involved in the company.<\/p>\n But the secret to its success lies mainly in word of mouth. Thanks to the recommendations of satisfied customers the brand has grown a lot and has managed to distribute to new markets and gain new fans for the brand. In fact, every day, 2000 \u2013 2500 machines leave the factory and since 1974, 10 million machines have been produced.<\/p>\n In 2017, an independent American magazine, chose Moccamaster<\/em> as the best coffee machine in the world. And we can assure you that a coffee prepared with any of its models is a guarantee of excellence.<\/p>\n The constant temperature of the water at between 92 and 96 degrees extracts the best of the ground coffee in just 4-6 minutes, thus offering a smooth extraction method that sublimates the coffee extracting its more complex flavours.<\/p>\n Moccamaster offers a 5 year guarantee.<\/p>\n From the start, Mr. Smit <\/em>focused on protecting the environment. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to emphasise that Moccamaster<\/em> is produced with high quality recyclable BPA-free materials. They have an extremely long service life so they practically accompany you for life.<\/p>\nThe Moccamaster family<\/h6>\n
