Makita DCM501Z Li-Ion Cordless Coffee Maker, Batteries and Charger Not Included, Blue, 10.8 V to 18 V

Product Information

In terms of features the machine we are considering is actually the new and improved version of the older Makita DCM500 coffee machine. What I really like about this coffee maker is that you can choose between coffee grounds and single serve coffee pods. This is the updated model to the now discontinued DCM500. Out of the box, you’ll notice that it’s incredibly lightweight at only 1.9kg (4.2lbs). A very sturdy carry handle is a great new addition saving you from having to cradle it under your arm when transporting it from job to job.

The Makita coffee maker isn’t an espresso machine. Espresso machines use around 9 bars of pressure to force water through very finely ground coffee. The Makita DCM501 is a filter coffee machine and requires a coarser grind for the water to be able to safely pass through the coffee. The Makita Coffee Machine also is quite compact and lightweight and will be easy to travel with if you want to take it camping or on a trip. It is 8-9/16” tall and has a 3-½” cup clearance. AccessoriesThe sleek and compact design is one of the primary factors that made the Gourmia GCM3250 attractive to use. Another thing to consider is that you ensure enough charge left to complete your work (if you’re using the same battery for both the coffee maker and the tools you’re using). This coffee maker has a compact design with portability in mind, so we don’t really expect it to make a large batch of coffee at once.

In our opinion, we don’t think that the battery-operated coffee maker market has reached its full potential. This is probably because many manufacturers don’t see it as a worthwhile investment. As a result of this, there is quite a lot of trash obscuring the gems that are out there. Yes, the convenience of being able to brew up a cup of coffee wherever you are is the primary benefit of having a battery-operated coffee maker. However, many manufacturers have had to make compromises (understandable ones) when designing these coffee makers. Brew SizeIn terms of battery-operated coffee makers, this one is definitely one of the most expensive coffee makers on the market. While those first two may be true to some degree, the fact still remains that most of us coffee lovers don’t actually have a cordless coffee maker, much less a portable espresso maker, to call our own. As a result, we either have to survive on overpriced drinks from coffee shops or (and I shudder at the thought of this) we simply go without having a cup of Joe.

Boil dry protection function prevents the machine from burning out: If water empties and temperature inside increases, the sensor will turn off power supply automaticallyBecause of this, you can rest assured that Makita’s cordless coffee maker offers every bit as much quality as its power tools. But how good is the brewing experience, and is the coffee it produces up to scratch? Let’s find out. For you coffee aficionados out there, you’ll insist on only brewing from a nice, fresh bag of pre-ground coffee. A word of warning is to make sure you select the right coffee. Pre-ground coffee sold in supermarkets is ground according to the brewing device. The top of the coffee maker has a carry handle for increased portability. What’s also striking is its lightweight, particularly if you’ve just been holding a 10lb chainsaw. The Makita coffee maker, at just 3lb, is positively featherweight by comparison.

The latte macchiato caramel coffee has three wonderful layers of coffee, warm milk and a perfect milk foam layer topped off with a hint of caramel.Another important fact to consider is that you most likely won’t be brewing coffee numerous times on a single charge. You should expect that you’re only going to be able to brew 1 or 2 batches before you have to recharge or change the battery. Coffee Quality
