What's the best small coffeemaker (3-5 cup)? I have a french press but dream of having my coffee ready and waiting when I wake up.

I have a French press, a Moka (based on the percolater system) and a KitchenAid drip maker with no timer. I probably use the latter most often. If you grind the coffee the night before all you have to do is hit the switch---how long does that take? My own preference is for the French press even if you have to boil water first.

Hmm, most drip machines that come with a timer -- so you can wake up to the smell of coffee -- are designed for 10- to 12-cups. If speed is what you're after then I'd go with SKK and Kristy's suggestion of a Nespresso machine. Almost zero lag time between barely awake and fully caffeinated!

I love my nespresso. Just turn it on and put the coffee thing in and it has a great flavor. I used to have a coffemaker that used an alarm to ground the coffee and turn on the coffeemaker. Too many parts to break down. Nespresso my all time favorite!

I'm not a coffee expert but I love French press. And nespresso because it's so convenient! Any coffee people out there have suggestions?
