The Smeg Drip Filter Coffee Maker is a stylish countertop appliance with that retro 50s vibe Smeg does so well. It comes in a wide range of colors to match your kettle, toaster etc and will brew up to 10 cups of coffee in one go. The 40-minute keep warm function works well, and you can select the aroma intensity according to preference.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a ‘strong enough to stand a spoon in it’ option for those of us who need a hard caffeine fix to jump start the day, but its programmable auto-start mode does ensure your coffee will be ready and waiting whenever you stumble downstairs. I also appreciated the generous 1.4 liter water tank with water level indicator on the side, and the reusable filter limits unnecessary waste.
