OXO Barista Brain 9-Cup Coffee Maker - Black/Silver

The Precision of a Barista, Automated.

We believe great coffee requires precision, which is why we are often skeptical of automatic brewers. The OXO Barista Brain is the rare exception, and it has earned our respect. We recommend this machine because it is engineered to eliminate the trade-off between convenience and quality. It’s one of the few brewers certified by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) to meet their rigorous "gold standard" for home brewing, giving you the precision of a skilled barista, automatically.

Engineered to Master Every Brewing Variable

This brewer is engineered to master every brewing variable. A microprocessor-controlled cycle precisely heats and holds water at the optimal temperature range (197.6-204.8°F) throughout the entire brew. The "Rainmaker™" showerhead then disperses the water evenly over the grounds for uniform saturation, just like a meticulous pour-over. An internal mixing tube ensures the finished pot is perfectly blended, so the flavor is consistent from the first sip to the last. This is how it brews a coffee that truly honors the quality of the beans.

A Smarter Ritual for Your Busiest Days

This is a smarter ritual for your busiest days. The single dial is intuitive to use—simply choose your cup size and press start. You can also program it the night before with the automatic brew-start timer. The insulated thermal carafe keeps the coffee hot for hours without a scorching hot plate, preserving its flavor. It's a thoughtfully designed machine that delivers exceptional coffee with effortless convenience, day after day.
