Generally, the Aromaboy is a solid option for those who want a one-cup coffee maker, but there may be better choices for those looking to extract lighter roasts properly. Siinä on automaattinen sammutustoiminto, eli jos sattuisit unohtaman sen päälle, se sammuu itsestään 40 minuutin jälkeen. Se on helppo puhdistaa, koska sekä suodatin että lasikannu voidaan pestä astianpesukoneessa. Founded in the early 1900s after the invention of the very first documented paper coffee filter, Melitta owes its name to the clever German housewife, Melitta Bentz, who made perforations in a metal cup and lined it with some of her son’s blotting paper to create the earliest known filter coffee. This simple innovation made it easier for thousands of people to make delicious coffee without the risk of bitter grounds getting into their cups and the company have gone from strength to strength in the century that’s passed since her coffee-making ingenuity was first put to the test.

The Aromaboy ® is a classic in the Melitta ® portfolio. Small in size but makes great coffee – and that since 1979.BALANCING – this topmost band is thinner still and more highly perforated. This helps to encourage a balanced taste and aroma with no bitterness.

REFINING – slightly thinner and with more perforations, this band allows an even and consistent brew time as the coffee develops its flavour. Melittan klassikko. Pieni kompakti laite keittää fantastisen kupillisen kahvia. Melitta Aromaboy sopii yhden hengen kotitalouksiin, joissa harvoin keitetään yli kahta kupillista kerrallaan. Kokonsa ansiosta se sopii täydellisesti tilaa säästäviin koteihin. The Aromaboy is designed to brew small batches of coffee, with a capacity of either one big cup or two small ones. The machine can hold up to 330 ml of water, yielding around 290 ml of brewed coffee. Performance Developed specifically for coffee filters, Aromapor paper is micro-perforated to ensure only the finest coffee flavours make it into your jug or cup to release the fullest flavour. Yet it’s tear-resistant and strong enough to ensure it won’t disintegrate while you’re pouring hot water over your chosen coffee grounds, and the deep seams are firmly crimped so they’ll stay in shape – even on the way to the compost caddy after your coffee’s been enjoyed – but there’s no need for glue of any kind. The Melitta Aromaboy is generally a very affordable one-cup coffee maker in Northern Europe, where I bought my unit.Retro wave? No way! The beige Melitta Aromaboy® has been reliably making up to 2 cups of coffee since 1979. There is space for this small and unique filter coffee machine even in the smallest kitchen! In a temperature test using two thermocouples plugged into a laptop via a Phidget interface, I found that the Moccamaster brewed at 90 degrees Celsius or more for most of the brewing cycle. At the same time, the Aromaboy hovered around 85-88 degrees celsius for much of the brew before finally reaching a temperature above 90 degrees celsius. Small size for great coffee enjoyment, the Aromaboy is always there when you need it, conjuring one to two cups of coffee in no time at all. The beige color option is the one that gives the machine its cute and retro appearance – and if you ask me – it’s the only right choice when it comes to colors.

While it may not make the best coffee compared to high-end versions such as the Moccamaster and Breville Precision Brewer, it’s excellent value for the price and adds a fun element to your morning routine. Consistently making up to two cups of coffee since 1979, this coffee machine's space-saving design will fit even in the smallest of kitchens. Provides an optimal brewing temperature to support full aroma development, resulting in the perfect coffee. Supplied with a glass jug with holder, visible water tank with easy to ready cup markings and for added safety, the automatic switch off function which will work 40 minutes after brewing. These filters are a standard size that fit most filter coffee machines no matter what brand, and they’re ideal for any 8-10 cup filter coffee jug.This is not a massive problem for medium and dark roasts; it could be an advantage. However, when it comes to most modern specialty roasts that are typically lighter, you’d want 90-95 degrees celsius. In a subsequent blind taste test, I found that the coffee made by the Moccamaster was more full-bodied and well-extracted, while the coffee made by the Aromaboy was a bit more astringent. The lower brewing temperature of the Aromaboy may have contributed to this difference in taste. The Melitta is similar to old school coffee makers from your childhood – just a lot smaller.
