    Every time I think project farm can’t come up with more relevant categories, he manages to impress
  • @scythelord
    Just an anecdote about Bunn: My dad had a Bunn at his house that he bought two decades prior that suddenly stopped heating. He got on an appliance repair website asking if anyone knew how to fix a Bunn coffeemaker that stopped heating and a Bunn employee responded to him in private messages to have him ship the 20 year old coffee maker to them so they could inspect the method of failure and they shipped him a brand new one free of charge the same day. Incredible customer support.
  • @jeffs7573
    Dude tasted coffee from every pot, now we know why he is so energetic in his videos.
  • @toolisgod6
    The fact that i just watched a 17 minute coffee maker comparison video in full, and i dont even drink coffee at all... actually never have in my life.... That's the support you deserve Mr. Project Farm lol
  • My wife being a baker would appreciate a test between different stand mixers. SMEG, Kenwood, Kitchen aid etc.
  • @shmeblord
    Going camping soon. Would love to see some camping gear tested. Sleeping bags, tents, bear proof containers, sleeping pads, or cookware
  • @SeanFreiburg
    Need the James Hoffman Project Farm collab for this one.
  • @mrgw98
    Been using the BUNN coffee maker in my family for over 25 years now and my whole family swears by it. The advantage of the shape of the pouring spout is not really at high speed pouring, but low speed "getting close to the top of the cup" pour. It's been the only coffee maker I have never spilled coffee with no matter what. Absolutely love it and can not recommend the BUNN enough.
  • @rickoneill4343
    I don't even like coffee. But I never miss a Project Farm video!
  • @jasonwalter2924
    I bought a Bunn about 30 years ago and it still works perfectly. No fancy anything, just a consistently good brew.
  • @Stona999
    PERFECT TIMING!!!! My coffee maker is dying and I have to buy a new one this week. Thanks for much for covering these.
  • @9002-bv9xz
    I have quite a bit of experience with coffee makers and recommend the following, trust me! 1. Technivorm Moccamaster KBT741 (have had mine for 15 years now!!) - $420 2. Zojirushi EC-YTC100 - $250 3. Hamilton Beach Professional 12 Cup 49500 - $120 These are all high wattage machines and make coffee fast, hot, and strong! The Zojirushi doesn’t use a cone filter (important imho) but it still cranks out a amazing cup
  • @hr-pm2rv
    I just finished watching a "best coffee maker" comparison. I don't even need to buy a coffee maker. You are very thorough and enjoy watching your videos for informational purposes! Thanks.
  • @ANONM60D
    The possibilities with this channel are endless. Thank you
  • @janicesmyth2183
    Thank you project farm for all your videos. I've learnd so much from all of them greatly appreciated!
  • @COOLSINATOR2000
    Super glad you made this video as I was just about to go looking for a new coffee make. Thanks as always for the amazing video
  • @NLind
    Let's just take a little time here to appreciate how nuch work goes into these videos: •Buying the products (I calulated $896, likely before taxes and shipping) •Buying anything else needed for the test (Distilled water here, maybe a meter, those blade sharpness testers [although he probably has a stock of them on hand], fuel for saws and such) •Creating a test rig if needed, •actually performing the tests, •(for oils) Sending the samples to a test lab and paying for that likely, •Filming the Intro, Outro, Unboxing and Tests, •Recording VO (Voiceover), •Creating the graphs, •Editing the video •Creating the final spreadsheet with the highlights...
  • @mlconley
    Some good tests but I would add the technovorm moccamaster - it's worth every penny. Also, brew temperature should be between 195 & 205 degrees during the entire brew cycle. Most start too cool and finish too hot. Too cool will give under-extracted coffee tasting like wood. Too hot will give over-extracted coffee which will be astringent and harsh. Brew temp can be measured with thermocouplers between the shower head and coffee grounds.
  • I LOVE your videos! I’m not in the market for a coffee maker, but watched the video because I haven’t seen one of your’s in a while. Very well done as always,and as entertaining as ever. I think viewing this video may have elevated me to super-nerd fan status.
