Product Description

The science and complex flavor of siphon brewing comes from vapor pressure pushing the water up through the siphon tube. Then, vacuum suction and gravity draw the coffee down through the grounds. KitchenAid has simplified this process to extract a cup of coffee that showcases all the distinctive flavors of your favorite beans.

Showcasing the theatrical artistry of siphon brewing, our brewer is made of high quality glass and stainless steel to be a true thing of beauty. View the full immersion vacuum brewing process from start to finish resulting in a complex and velvety cup of craft coffee right at home.

Easily brew 3-8 cups of siphon style coffee.

Customers like the quality of the coffee maker. They mention that it makes awesome coffee, great tasting coffee, and the best home brew they can buy. The pot is good and sturdy, and it brewers correctly every time, resulting in coffee that is never bitter or acidic.

"...Overall, I'm really happy with my purchase. It makes fabulous coffee, and once I got used to it, it was snap. Oh, and it brews VERY quickly!..." Read more

"...complicated than your average drip coffee maker, but the coffee it makes is far superior (in my opinion) to any other method including pour-over,..." Read more

"...It does make noticeably better coffee than non-siphon coffee makers. The KA model seems safer to use than other brands that have an open flame...." Read more

"...As a result, the coffee is never bitter or acidic, but if you like dark coffee you will need to use more...." Read more

53 customers mention42 positive11 negative

Customers like the ease of use of the coffee maker. They mention it's fairly easy to use, but takes a little more time to brew and clean than other models. They also say it'll be fun to watch the brewer heat the water very quickly. Customers also say the vacuum action is great fun to look at and a nice conversation piece. They say the coffee and this machine delivers with a flash of science to impress their friends.

"...always perfect for brewing (about 190 degrees) and it's great fun to watch the vacuum action when it sucks the brewed coffee, sans grounds, down..." Read more

"...The reality - pros. The KA siphon coffee maker is pretty easy to use with a little practice; watching a "how to" video helps...." Read more

"...for almost 30 years - not because they are convenient and easy to use, but because IMO they make the best coffee of all brewing methods...." Read more

"...However, they were needlessly complex and didn’t become popular until heat resistant borosilicate glass allowed stove-top “double boiler” units to..." Read more

24 customers mention17 positive7 negative

Customers like the appearance of the coffee maker. They say it looks good, is rugged, and well designed. They also say it produces a very nicely finished brew with no "stray" grounds in the cup. Customers also say that it makes the coffee color brighter and removes a little acid. They find the fit, finish, and engineering are excellent, and the product is unique, beautiful, and exotic.

"...I can't speak to durability, but it feels very well made and the fit, finish, and engineering are excellent...." Read more

"...This brewer is glass so it looks much better. Because it brews longer I use less coffee than before...." Read more

"...1. Do not use the cloth filter. It becomes a filthy rag, which you can never get clean.2. Buy basket style paper filters fold a few in halve...." Read more

"...It looks classy and exotic sitting on the kitchen counter. For my part, I like a brewer that's a little bit fiddly... Which this is...." Read more

23 customers mention19 positive4 negative

Customers like the speed of the coffee maker. They say it brews a wonderfully smooth pot of coffee very quickly. They also appreciate the quick water heater and well designed seal. Overall, customers are happy with the speed and quality of the product.

"...Oh, and it brews VERY quickly! I was surprised. Sometimes I think it is almost as quick as a Keurig!..." Read more

"...The Siphon brew was smoother, a little bit richer, and overall better than Mr.Coffee...." Read more

"...the rythm of it, and if you have conditioned and filtered water, it's very fast. And nothing needs any real drying off." Read more

"...In spite of these warnings the coffee maker is easy to use and brews quickly...." Read more

73 customers mention26 positive47 negative

Customers are mixed about the cleanliness of the coffee maker. Some mention that it's easy to clean, while others say that it takes a few minutes and is worth the effort. The pouring lip and the vacuum fitting make it difficult to clean. The headpiece traps water and prevents completely emptying the pot, thus trapping soapy water.

"...upper portion is dome-like with a very narrow opening and it's tricky to get it clean without a brush or very small hands...." Read more

"...However, this is a beautiful appliance - like a giant glass ornament - and you may find yourself wanting it to gleam...." Read more

"...Cleanup is also longer than any other method I've used, and I have to agree with other reviewers here that I am scared to death I will break one of..." Read more

"...The siphon "bowl" is equally difficult to clean thoroughly. The coffee maker does come with a specially angled brush, which is very helpful...." Read more

57 customers mention25 positive32 negative

Customers are mixed about the sturdiness of the coffee maker. Some mention it's well built, made of quality glass, and built like a commercial device. However, others say that it has become brittle and broke in some places. The handles fall apart and the upper carafe broke after almost 2 years.

"...Scarcity makes for high(er) prices. Rubber hardens, cracks, begins to fail as a seal, smells bad when it gets old and can affect the taste of the..." Read more

"...UPDATE 12/17/2020 The pot is still going strong up, but not so much down...recently the seal is not sealing as it used to, and the vacuum seal..." Read more

"...by adding 50% more coffee than with a manual pot and it still is a bit weak...." Read more

"...The glass pot and the glass siphon "bowl" are made of quality glass and I do not expect either piece will break easily...." Read more

34 customers mention5 positive29 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the temperature of the coffee maker. They mention that it does not have a warmer, the coffee becomes cold in a short time, and there is no heating element in the base to keep it warm. Some say that the coffee is a bit hot for their taste and will get cold if they don't quaff in hors. They also say that it takes a lot of effort to use and clean.

"...That being said, there are some things to consider: this does not keep your coffee hot after brewing, so I transfer the coffee immediately to a..." Read more

"...However, if you make much more than 1/2 a pot, some of the hot water will jump out of the upper chamber from the pour spout on it's lid...." Read more

"...The coffee maker does not have a warmer to keep your coffee hot, so once the brewing is finished you will probably want to transfer it to a thermos..." Read more

"...The glass carafe is not insulated, but the metal heating base has a lot of thermal mass; it tends to hold the heat...." Read more

25 customers mention6 positive19 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the value of the coffee maker. They mention that the filter replacements are a little steep in price, and the product is pricey. Some say that the coffee is awesome, but the filter is not worth the money.

"...There is no question that this item is pricey, but I have to say it does make outstanding coffee, and that is the bottom line...." Read more

"...- KitchenAid doesn't sell any replacement cloth filters that I can find. This is what drives me to give a poor review of this coffee machine...." Read more

"...have tried a variety of automatic units this is the best one it is a bit pricey and it looks like that the manufacturer has discontinued which is an..." Read more

"...Isn't even the word for the coffee that these make! Worth EVERY penny and more!!" Read more

We really enjoy the KitchenAid Siphon Coffee Brewer

We really enjoy the KitchenAid Siphon Coffee Brewer
We really enjoy the KitchenAid Siphon Coffee Brewer. It makes a great pot of coffee and it is interesting to watch. Unfortunately, the quality of the materials is not great. We are on our third "mixing bowl" from breakage or handle separation. The lower piece, the pot, has sections where the plastic handle has broken away, separated, or split. The split on the top ring breaks the suction necessary for the siphon action to work, which is critical to brewing the coffee. To be fair, KitchenAid is sending a new pot but honestly, the materials should be of a better quality.
