Ninja - 10-Cup Coffee Maker with Dishwasher Safe Component - Black/Stainless Steel

So just wanted to say how amazing the coffee is with this coffee machine . I love being able to fluff my milk in the morning with the tool on the side . The coffee pot leaves the coffee nice and hot for 3 hours I would say . It reminds me to put water if there is not water in the tank . Also there are bars that start and show how much more time is needed until the coffee is done . There is a clock on the coffee maker . Also it comes with a cup to measure how much coffee is needed to pour inside the coffee pot . Mainly I like how I can put fresh water every single time and don’t have to worry about the tank sucking in coffee beans and not working . I had the Bunn coffee machine and switched to the Ninja and it’s the best decision I made .

This coffee maker is probably the best purchase I’ve made in a very long time. It makes tea and coffee to perfection and easy to maneuver.

The build quality is great, the options are seemingly endless, and the daily functions are straightforward. There’s not a lot I could say that hasn’t already been said in these reviews, except this: go to Menards and pick up a 50¢ size 00 rubber stopper to plug the whole in the lid of the carafe when you are done brewing. Greatly increases the length of time your coffee will stay hot.

The Ninja coffee maker is slim and fits in a compact place on my counter next to my stove, under the cupboard. From first glance while unpacking, you can see it is very stylish with the black and stainless-steel design. The exterior doesn’t show fingerprints. The system comes with a book of recipes, a quick start guide, and the owner’s guide. All are visually supported booklets with easy-to-follow directions. Be sure to follow the initial directions and run two Full Brew cycles before you drink anything you make. That ensures the machine is cleaned out properly. The quick start guide then takes you through the different decisions to make with your first brew. The removable water reservoir is easy to fill and dishwasher safe. It has auto-metering so you know how much water you need to add based on the size you wish to brew. There are 6 brew sizes (cup, XL cup, travel, travel XL, half carafe, full carafe). The carafe is great, and you can make a single cup with the drop-down cup plate so your hot beverage doesn’t splatter over the counter. You get two baskets; one for tea and one for coffee. I love this so my tea doesn’t taste like coffee. When you insert the coffee or tea filter, the machine senses which one it is (smart basket recognition) and gives you the brew setting choices for that one. For tea: herbal, green, oolong, white and black. For coffee: classic, rich, over ice, cold brew, specialty. The baskets are easy to clean, but make sure you don’t toss out the tea insert when you dispose of your used tea bags into the garbage. You can also use a paper filter for coffee inside the filter holder. The brew tracker (5 blinking bars) tells you how far along your beverage is and then shows END where the time is displayed when the process is complete. For my tea, it steeps in the basket, and then the brewed tea is released into the vessel below. For those who desperately need a cup of caffeine immediately, if using the full or half carafe size, you can press the drip stop button, grab a cup, put the carafe back in, then continue the rest of the brewing cycle. I have seen the cold brew prices on the shelves in stores and the prices assorted with them. This is a much better deal. I myself am a big fan of iced tea. I love that I can brew a cup and it isn’t watery despite all the ice I add. Cold brew takes 10 minutes in this system, unlike traditional cold brew that can take all night. Did I mention that it comes with a smart scoop (that conveniently attaches to the outside) that measure coffee on one side and tea on the other, and a fold-away hot frother for milk?! There are a couple of neat options you should take into consideration when contemplating whether or not to purchase this item versus another: 1. The auto-IQ option means that the system knows how much water to use, at which temperature, and for each size and brew type. 2. There is a 24-hour programmable delay brew so you can schedule brewing ahead of time so it is ready when you are. 3. With the clean function, the CLEAN light will illuminate after there is a buildup of hard water calcium. Follow the cleaning instructions in the care & maintenance section to address that. 4. The unit will automatically power off after one hour of inactivity. That way, if you forgot to turn it off in the morning when you leave for work, it will be off when you get home at the end of the day. So many options, it is sure to please the entire family, whether they are coffee or tea drinkers. The specialty brew option adds even more delectable concoctions: chai lattes, cappuchino, matchaccino, etc. The 40-recipe booklet that you receive is filled with awesome ideas. I have only had the product for a few days, and I have already made 3 of them. And it is so easy to clean. I guarantee this home brew system will be one of the most loved, and used appliances in your kitchen. You might even consider buying one for the office and get rid of the machine with the pricey cups. To me, it is totally worth the price and I am sure you will agree with me once you have had it for just a week.

I been trying to find a coffee machine that has a tea option , I definitely found it ! I love the features it has . When it comes down to making a fast fancy drink I definitely hit the jackpot

I have had a single cup coffee maker that I loved for several years, but I can say that after having the Ninja Hot & Cold Brewed system, I would never go back. It has so many options, both simple and more complex, that I didn’t realize what I was missing. Let me start off with the variety of sizes available - it has several size options including cup, XL cup, travel mug, half carafe and full carafe. This is great because if you are like me, you owned both a K-cup and a traditional coffee maker for when I wanted to make more than 1 cup at a time. In addition, I don’t have to worry about my larger cups not being full or having to “double” brew to fill my cup - I just pick the correct size. Along with the size options, there are a number of brew methods: Classic, Rich, Over Ice, Cold Brew and Specialty. This is great for me and my husband, as I enjoy a nice hot coffee and he prefers Iced Coffee. In addition, I have tried all the brew methods for the coffee and I can say without a doubt, coming from a coffee snob, this system makes good coffee. I wasn’t expecting a lot from the Cold Brew option (just more of a cold coffee), but I can say that it was a true Cold Brew coffee and tasted like something you would pay over $5 from a fancy barista. Now onto the tea brewing features - all the same size and brew methods that were available with the coffee options follow the tea brewing option. In addition, you also have the ability to choose the type of tea that you are brewing - Herbal, Black, Oolong, White and Green. This is a nice feature to have, especially since teas are brewed at different temperatures. The system also gives you the ability to brew using tea bags and loose leaf tea. I brewed from both a tea bag and a herbal loose leaf tea and I can saw that I was impressed with the brew. Another neat feature is the frothing whisk - it is so simple to use, folds away nicely on the side of the system and easy to remove for cleaning. It’s a really nice touch to be able to make cappuccinos and lattes at home. The system also comes with a stainless steel carafe and a Smart Scoop, that snaps on the side of the system with ease. The carafe is heavy duty and keep coffee hot/cold for several hours. The smart scoop is nice because there is no more looking for a measuring spoon to add the correct amount of coffee or tea, depending on the size that you are brewing.

Having previously reviewed the Single Server Ninja Brewer and seeing this model be released I couldn't pass this up. This has in fact replaced that brewer for many reasons. This particular model came with the Stainless Steel Carafe. There is a model that comes with the Glass Carafe. The Thermal Carafe definitely does a fantastic job of keeping Coffee or Tea hot. I had brewed a full Carafe and even after several hours my coffee was still very hot, almost as if I had just brewed it. There are several options for brew size as well as several Brew modes. You can see these in my photo. I do like having the addition of a clock on the device and also being able to set a brew delay. This is great if you want to have coffee ready to go in the morning when you wake up. The only caveat is the system has to stay powered on. If you turn it off, it will not brew at a later time. It's interesting to see something like this in this day and age when a lot of other brewers will power on at the desired time and start to brew. A small nuisance but not irritatingly so. The brewer does come with two different permanent filters, one for tea another for coffee. Both do their job as they should. My mother typically just drinks tea. When I asked how her tea turned out after a few uses she remarked it was pretty strong. She normally used the Keurig for the tea. I think the reason it's so strong is that she is not used to either the brewing method the Ninja uses or the Keurig was always brewing a weak tea. For myself, my coffee has always tasted great. I alternate between the rich and the classic brews and occasionally enjoy a over ice brew. I really appreciate the cold brew option now, but I haven't yet used it. I will probably do so over the weekend. My only real complaints with this model is that brewing takes longer and the reservoir is smaller by about 12 or 18 ounces. With the Single serve brewer I was able to make a cup in any size in about 1-2 minutes. This particular brewer takes about 2-5 minutes. Cold Brew takes quite a bit longer according to the manual. Another thing I do like is the included recipe book. There's quite a bit of recipes in there for just about everyone. There's stuff for Hot and Cold Tea or Coffee, Cold Brew's, Frappe's and even some adult concoctions such as White Russian variant. Given that I've had my other Ninja for about 2 or 3 years now and only had one hiccup where it wouldn't brew, but leaving it off for a few days and turning it back on seemed to fix it, I have no doubt this one will last me as long or even longer.

My wife and I absolutely love coffee - we literally don't go a day without drinking it - so the Ninja Hot & Cold coffee maker is by far one of the best things we've come across. CON: - The biggest and most obvious downside to this purchase is how bulky the whole system is for something that doesn't accept whole bean coffee - prepare for it to take up an awful lot of your countertop. It was surprising, but it also makes sense considering how many features it packs - coffee maker, tea brewer, milk frother - so it didn't bother me personally, but if space is already at a premium in your kitchen be prepared to swap something out to make this fit. - This product has overall great packaging and design, and it would have been nice if there were a place on the machine to store the tea filter. Not critical, obviously, but it would have been nice. PROS: - Makes obviously great coffee. The stuff that comes out is definitely stronger than our old coffee machine. There are a bunch of different options for brewing the coffee, such as classic, rich, iced, and cold brew. That's a ton of versatility in one package. - Works quickly and is quiet, much more so than other coffee brewers. - The carafe advertises keeping coffee hot for 2 hours, but honestly? We've gone to work and come back after 8 hours and the coffee's still warm. - We really enjoy how the milk frother neatly tucks into the side of the machine along with the scoops. It's a nice touch. Similarly, its action is smooth and easy to manage with no mess. - The one thing that really excited me in particular as a coffee fan is the inclusion of a recipe book for all different kinds of specialty drinks, hot and iced and even frozen. Sure, anyone can throw together a book, and you don't necessarily need the Ninja brewer to make these drinks, but it goes a long way toward making the machine feel like something more than that - it feels kind of like you're starting on a coffee discovery adventure. Corny? Oh yeah. But they are absolutely going for that vibe here and it works. What can I say? We love this thing. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone with the budget for this machine, admittedly expensive, but I think worthy of the price tag considering how much it can actually do.
