The best coffee maker with a built-in grinder depends first on what you want to brew: a full drip pot, a single cup, espresso, or several styles. These five models cover those different routines, but they are not interchangeable—and the available reviews do not establish one shared, hands-on-tested ranking of all five.
How to choose a coffee maker with a built-in grinder
Start with the cup you want, then compare the grinder, capacity, controls and upkeep. A machine’s built-in grinder is convenient, but it does not automatically mean burr construction, adjustable grind size or uniform grounds.

- Brew format: A drip brewer makes coffee in a carafe; a single-serve machine is designed around individual portions; espresso machines use a different brewing method. A coffee setting on an espresso machine is not the same as drip coffee.
- Grinder: Check whether the model uses a blade or burr grinder and how many grind adjustments it offers. Good Housekeeping suggests an eight-ounce-or-larger hopper for people who want to refill less often. A machine without a bean hopper requires adding beans for each brew.
- Capacity and routine: Match the water capacity, serving sizes and carafe to the number of people and cups you typically make. A stated cup count is not the same as a single-cup serving size.
- Controls: Look for features that fit your routine, such as scheduling, brew-strength options, grind-off or pre-ground coffee settings, pod compatibility, and milk preparation.
- Carafe and cleanup: Glass carafes are generally lighter and less expensive; thermal carafes retain heat without a warming plate but may need hand washing. Check the specific model’s manual for cleaning instructions and dimensions before buying.
- Repair trade-off: Because the grinder and brewer share one appliance, a fault in either may mean servicing the whole machine. Separate equipment costs more space and requires separate purchases, but keeps the grinder and brewer independent.
Five coffee makers with built-in grinders, matched to use
This is a use-case shortlist, not a claim that all five were tested under one common method. Good Housekeeping reports hands-on testing for its picks; Drip & Dose states that its roundup was not lab-tested. The descriptions below preserve those distinctions.
1. Breville Grind Control (BDC650BSS): drip coffee for adjustable brewing
Good Housekeeping named the Grind Control its best overall pick in a roundup updated September 24, 2026. Its review reports a burr grinder with six grind settings, an eight-ounce hopper and a 12-cup capacity, and says the unit performed well in grinder and taste evaluations. Good Housekeeping describes hands-on testing that included brewing multiple pots, measuring brew time and temperature, assessing how long coffee stayed warm, sensory tests, and grind-size and consistency measurements.

#1 Best Overall
- Note: 1)Too coarse a grind, too little coffee, or insufficiently tamping the grounds before brewing can all lead to inadequate pressure for a proper brew. 2)It is important to note that the amount of espresso extracted will vary depending on the grind size and amount and reprogramming may be needed when the size and amount are adjusted.Please refer to user guide or user manual or user guide (provided below in PDF) before first use
- Fabric Type: Plastic
Drip & Dose also names this model best overall and describes a 12-cup thermal-carafe brewer with eight strength settings. Strength settings and grind-size settings are different controls; do not treat one as the other. Verify the exact model and current product documentation before relying on a specification. Drip & Dose says its roundup was not lab-tested. See Drip & Dose’s comparison.
2. Cuisinart Automatic Grind & Brew DGB-400NAS: straightforward drip brewing
Drip & Dose describes this 12-cup drip model with a blade grinder, programmability, Brew Pause and a grind-off option. It is a practical format to consider if you want an integrated grinder and scheduled carafe brewing, but it is not a burr-grinder machine. The cited roundup does not provide hands-on performance evidence; check the current manufacturer listing for the exact model’s features and care instructions.

3. Cuisinart 2-in-1 Grind & Brew Single-Serve SS-GB1: one-cup flexibility
This single-serve model is described by Drip & Dose as accepting whole beans or compatible single-cup pods, with 8-, 10- and 12-ounce serving choices. Its grinder type is not stated in that source, so do not assume it uses burrs. It suits a household that prefers individual servings or values having a pod option alongside whole beans; confirm pod compatibility for the specific pods you use.

4. Ninja Luxe Café Premier ES601: multiple brew formats
Drip & Dose describes the ES601 as a hybrid appliance for espresso, drip coffee and cold brew with an integrated conical burr grinder. Its appeal is format flexibility rather than simply making a pot of drip coffee. The source does not establish a shared lab comparison against the other picks, so assess the formats and workflow you will actually use, and consult current product documentation for detailed capacities and cleaning needs.
Rank #3
- 2 BREW STYLES: Classic or Rich, each brew is flavorful and never bitter with custom brew strengths.
- 12-CUP GLASS CARAFE: Brew small or large batches of coffee – perfect for day to day or entertaining.
- HOTTER BREWING TECHNOLOGY: Delivers even saturation and temperature control for ultra-flavorful coffee.
- SMALL BATCH FUNCTION: Ensure your coffee is never diluted when brewing a small batch (1-4 cups).
- WAKE UP TO HOT COFFEE: 24-hour programmable delay brew allows you to prepare your brew up to a day in advance.
5. Black+Decker Mill and Brew: value-oriented drip option
Good Housekeeping names a Black+Decker Mill and Brew its best-value pick, reporting consistent grinds and a comparatively quiet grinder while noting that the reviewed unit lacks a bean hopper. Confirm the exact model before purchase: the roundup’s description is not enough to identify every current version or its specifications. Without a hopper, beans need to be added for each brew.

Good Housekeeping’s September 2026 roundup says its Kitchen & Cooking Lab analyzed more than 270 data points to determine its picks, and that the Good Housekeeping Institute has tested more than 100 coffee and espresso makers over hundreds of hours, including grind-and-brew models. Those are figures about the publication’s review work, not market statistics. They support its own hands-on recommendations, not a direct ranking of every model listed here.
Rank #4
The sources differ in method. Good Housekeeping reports hands-on evaluation; Drip & Dose says its list was not lab-tested; Fewbetter says it did not hands-on test the machines it lists. Fewbetter can help identify products for specification checks, but its shortlist does not provide comparative performance evidence. TechRadar’s cited coverage offers tested recommendations and context for drip and bean-to-cup formats, but the supplied material does not establish a consistent five-model test across these sources.

Quick Recap
Check these details before ordering
- Confirm the complete model number. Similar product names can refer to different versions. Match the model number in the review to the current retailer or manufacturer listing, especially for the Black+Decker Mill and Brew.
- Verify specifications against the current listing or manual. Check grinder type, settings, hopper and water capacity, carafe type, dimensions and cleaning instructions. Treat review-page specifications as attributed descriptions, not a substitute for current product documentation.
- Choose the format you will use most. A drip carafe, single-serve machine and espresso-capable hybrid solve different needs. Do not pay for formats or controls that do not fit your routine.
- Check regional availability and stock. Model numbers and specifications can vary by market, and current availability is not established by the review pages cited here.
