“My wife and I decided to elevate our at-home coffee game and chose the Ratio Four. The difference has been immediate, the coffee is more flavorful, balanced, and genuinely better than any other machine we’ve tried.
My only wish is that the coffee stayed hotter a bit longer in the carafe. I understand avoiding a traditional heating plate to prevent overcooking the coffee, but I’d love to see a more insulated or thermal carafe option. I know some of the other models offer an insulated carafe as an add-on accessory, and having that option here would make it even better.
Overall, it’s an excellent coffee maker and we’d absolutely recommend it.”
“In terms of quality of making my coffee? 5 stars.
My only real issue is the start button is still way too sensitive (even in this updated version of the Ratio 4). I touch it by mistake and it starts up.
But the coffee is great, and very consistent, so I'm still giving it 5 stars.”
“It makes excellent coffee in small quantities. I usually drink one cup a day between 14 and 22 ounces, which according to the brewer is more like 3 or 4 cups, I brew directly into an insulated mug, height limited to just under 5 3/4 inches. I like how easy it is to remove and fill the remote detachable reservoir. If you want a a brewer to make high quality coffee for one or two that just works, this is a great choice.”
“Do you want the taste of great coffee without the ritual and time required to make pour-over coffee? Let me recommend the Ratio Four. It quickly and simply delivers the consistently smooth and clean-tasting coffee you want every time. My morning coffee from the Ratio Four is better tasting than what I get from a coffee shop and more consistent than what I was previously making at home. It is a great one-mug coffee maker. I let it brew directly into my mug and am good to go with a perfectly hot coffee. An hour or so later, when I want a second mug, I can quickly make it. I never again want to taste burned coffee that has been sitting on a hot plate. If you want to taste all the flavors that your coffee beans offer and you want a simple and consistent process to get to that taste, join me in exiting that online coffee-making rabbit hole and enjoy coffee from the Ratio Four.”
“Been using the Ratio Four over a couple weeks now. With a new job I've been more strapped on time in the mornings and this little coffee cooker is just the trick. It whips out a couple mugs of hot rocket fuel in no time and is exactly what I was looking for!”
“After patiently searching for months online for a plastic-free, automated pour over coffee maker to replace my older automatic espresso machine, I finally found one I really love! The Ratio 4 is just right for me, a solo coffee drinker in my home. The price is very reasonable. It’s the right size, taking up the right amount of countertop space. It’s easy to use and maintain. I hope they come out with an insulated carafe soon!”
