Every coffee lover wants to enjoy a fresh-tasting cup of coffee, but we don’t all have endless time to commit to making every cup. Using whole bean coffee instead of pre-ground coffee is one way to ensure to a fresher-tasting cup of coffee, yet it often sacrifices convenience.

But what if it doesn’t have to? Using a separate coffee grinder has it’s perks, but it’s another step (and gadget) to have as part of your morning routine. Instead, using coffee makers with grinders built-in streamlines the entire process for a stress-free morning, complete with an amazing cup of coffee. Why not combine the steps into one easy process? If you’re looking to make the switch to a coffee maker with a built-in grinder, we’ve got you covered. We’ve narrowed down the best coffee makers with grinders on the market in 2025, helping you select an intuitive, trustworthy machine you can count on. Here are our favorites.

What to consider

Regardless of what type of grinder a coffee maker has, the grinder component is the most important to it’s functionality. If you’re buying a coffee maker with a built-in grinder, you need it to be functional and perform well. I recommend considering your preferred type of grinder, but more importantly, quality is key. Grinders can also get noisy, so consider if you need an ultra-quiet coffee maker (such as in tight apartments or in family settings). When looking for the best coffee maker with grinder for you, also consider the cup size you want to make. Are you looking to make personal cups only, such as for the solo coffee drinker or do you want to make a full, 10 or 12 cup carafe?

How we chose

The best coffee makers with grinders on this list were chosen based on reviews, performance, and functionality. We’ve selected top products from the most trustworthy manufacturers on the market. We took a careful look at the quality of coffee, ease of use, and the general functionality of each coffee maker. Products that made the list were ones that consistently performed well without any errors or problems.

Products that were personally tested went through a trial period over a few weeks, allowing time to learn the features and discover potential flaws in each. Coffee makers with grinders that didn’t make the list were ones with general poor reviews or common issues. The same coffee beans were used to maintain consistency while testing.

Why trust us

Enjoying great coffee doesn’t have to be an occurrence that only happens every-so-often. I think everyone deserves to enjoy cafe-level quality at home. A great day starts with great coffee, and I know great coffee when I taste it. I love coffee in any form, but I appreciate the flavor and aroma you get from using freshly ground coffee as opposed to pre-packaged ground coffee. I’ve selected the coffee makers on this list based on my experience with various coffee brands and different types of coffee makers.

Breville Grind Control 12-Cup Coffee Maker

Pros
  • Sleek stainless steel look
  • Programmable brewing feature
  • Adjustable grinder settings
  • Thermal carafe
Cons
  • A little bulky, requires ample counter space
Specification:
Cup size Up to 12
Type of grinder Burr grinder

The Breville Grind Control 12-Cup Coffee Maker delivers the same consistency and reliability many coffee drinkers expect from Breville. Though this machine is more of a splurge than many other coffee makers with grinders, the functionality and usability of this one are worth it. One thing I noticed about this coffee maker, amongst other Breville machines I’ve tried, is that the set-up and learning process is always a breeze. Breville makes its appliances pretty easy to learn to use for the average coffee drinker.

As I used this coffee maker over the course of a few weeks, I found that it was consistent every time. The programmable feature eliminated one step in my morning process, too, ensuring fresh coffee was waiting for me. There’s something to be said for the little things like that. The quality, stainless steel burrs are truly what you’re investing in. This is the type of coffee maker that will last you years of regular use. While it’s not the quietest coffee maker you’ll find, it’s ease-of-use, durability, and consistency make it my best overall choice.

Cuisinart Automatic Grind & Brew 12-Cup Coffee Maker

Pros
  • Permanent filter
  • Glass carafe
  • Built-in water filter
Cons
  • A little noisy
Specification:
Cup size Up to 12 cups
Type of grinder Blade grinder

For a coffee maker with a grinder under $150, you can’t beat the value of the Cuisinart Automatic Grind & Brew 12-Cup Coffee Maker. Many coffee makers with grinders have burr grinders, but this model has a blade grinder which makes it far more affordable.

For the price, there’s a lot of value in this model, which offers features comparable to much more expensive models such as the automatic programmable settings. I found the “grind-off” setting interesting, giving you the option to use pre-ground coffee at times. This is something I haven’t noticed on other coffee makers with grinders. If you like to switch between using whole bean and ground coffee, this could be a key selling point.

In using the Cuisinart Automatic Grind & Brew 12-Cup Coffee Maker over a few weeks, I had no trouble adjusting to the reusable filter. I think this feature also plays into the machine’s great value, helping to save you money on paper filters over time.

Cuisinart Single-Serve Grind Brew

Pros
  • Offered in three finishes
  • Can use whole bean or use K-cups
  • Brews individual cups
Cons
  • Use can be a bit messy
  • Can be a tad noisy
Specification:
Cup size Makes 8, 10, or 12 ounce cups
Type of grinder Burr grinder

If you’re a solo coffee drinker, a single-serving coffee maker with a built-in grinder may be a smart choice. With the Cuisinart Single-Serve Grind Brew, you can make only one cup at a time. If you’re not going to drink a full carafe, this gives you the option to enjoy a single cup brewed fresh and avoid waste.

The Cuisinart Single-Serve Grind Brew allows you to brew each cup in 8, 10, or 12 ounce servings or use K-cups, if preferred. The built-in conical burr mill grinds whole beans on demand, ensuring a fresh cup of coffee whenever you want it. There are not many single-serve coffee makers with grinders on the market, so this machine is especially unique.

GE Profile Smart Grind & Brew Coffee Maker

Pros
  • Slim profile for tight spaces
  • Powerful, adjustable burr grinder for precise grinding
  • SCA Certified
Cons
  • Some users report water leakage
  • Cannot adjust coffee temperature settings
Specification:
Cup size 10 cup capacity
Type of grinder Burr grinder

Many coffee makers with built-in grinders can be a bit bulky, requiring a decent amount of counter space. This might be problematic for those with small kitchens, but the GE Profile Smart Grind & Brew Coffee Maker solves this dilemma. The design of this coffee maker is pretty compact without sacrificing quality.

The GE Profile Smart Grind & Brew includes an adjustable burr grinder with six settings. I also like that it has a pretty large 90-oz water reservoir, so you don’t have to keep running to refill every time you want to make coffee. The coffee bean grinding is pretty quiet compared to other machines, too.

Gevi 10 Cup Drip Coffee Maker with Built-in Grinder

Pros
  • Modern, touchscreen interface
  • Keep warm feature
  • Brew over ice feature
  • Uses a reusable filter
Cons
  • Not the most modern in appearance
  • Offered only in one color
Specification:
Cup size 4 to 10 cups
Type of grinder Burr grinder

The Gevi 10 Cup Drip Coffee Maker with Built-in Grinder has an updated touchscreen interface that makes it easy to access all of the settings in one place. One feature I like about this maker is the “keep warm” feature which can keep your coffee hot for up to 4 hours post-brewing. This machine’s built-in burr-grinder is top-rated, but what sets this machine apart is its ability to view over ice. For iced coffee lovers, this machine is a great pick.

If you’re looking to cut back on the amount of paper you use, this machine is also eco-friendly. The permanent filter eliminates the need to use paper. Simply wash the filter and resuse the next time you brew your coffee.

  • Available in 3 stylish finishes
  • Sleek gold accents
  • Wi-Fi enabled
Cons

I also like that this coffee maker feels “high-tech” with its WiFi feature that connects to a mobile app for advanced settings. You can really control almost every aspect of the brewing process on this stylish coffee maker.

Classic London dry gins to add to your collection
Tanqueray

When many drinkers think about gin, they are likely to envision traditional London dry gin. That’s because, like the West Coast IPA when it comes to IPAs, the London dry gin is the standard for the spirit style.

While I love a nice glass of whiskey (or a whiskey-based cocktail), the summer months were made for the pine and botanical flavors of London dry gin. This juniper-forward version is also the perfect choice for cocktail enthusiasts (in drinks like the iconic G&T, Gin Gimlet, Negroni, and more) because of its piney, botanical flavor profile, which pairs perfectly with citrus and other summery flavors. Today, I’m going to take a deep dive into this popular gin variety.

The milestone here isn’t only the char — at least, not entirely. It’s also that Triple Char is the first Old Forester expression made entirely from whiskey distilled at the brand’s Main Street distillery.
