I Heart My Coffeemaker: Food Network Chefs' Favorite Machines

Ted Allen: "My Miele system is a splurge, but it's awesome, especially if you have a lot of houseguests. Anybody who wants a cup of coffee can have it in 10 seconds — espresso, cappuccino, americano, all with just the touch of a button. It also has a plumbed-in water connection, because if I'm spending this much on a coffeemaker, I'm not filling up a tank."

Anne Burrell: "I have a delightful little KitchenAid coffeemaker that produces enough coffee for a travel mug. I love, love, love the convenience when you need to take it on the run!"

Alex Guarnaschelli: "My recipe for coffee? I measure the amount of coffee to put in relative to the water and then add two extra spoonfuls of coffee. I pour boiled — but not boiling — water over the grounds, stir and let it sit for at least 15 minutes. Then I press and drink with cream, no sugar. Sublime."

Scott Conant: "My Unic Stella di Caffè is a gorgeous machine. It really adds something to the space and just makes fantastic coffee. It can be custom-programmed and has an excellent pressure system."
