Simply Good Coffee · Model The Brewer (Plastic-Free)

Why: Brand documents brew path as 304 stainless + borosilicate glass with medical-grade silicone seals only — no plastic or aluminum contacting water/coffee. Silicone seals are disclosed; we still call it a pass for plastic-free (silicone ≠ plastic) with that caveat noted.

Ratio · Model Eight Series 2

Why: Ratio publishes a materials breakdown: cold tank is Eastman Tritan; hot path uses glass, stainless, aluminum, and FDA silicone. Stainless carafe/glass lines help, but Tritan tank fails full plastic-free.

Breville · Model Precision Brewer / BDC series (category)

Why: Mainstream drip machines in this class use plastic water reservoirs and often plastic baskets/showerheads. Stainless carafe options do not fix the hot-water path upstream.

Fellow · Model Aiden

Why: Fellow official help: Aiden uses polyphenylene oxide (PPO), stainless steel, and silicone; PPO is BPA-free. Product page: “BPA free-food grade plastic, stainless steel, and silicone.” Carafe is double-wall stainless. Plastic in the machine (chosen for thermal stability) fails plastic-free brew-path rule. Fellow still does not map PPO to tank vs lines vs showerhead.

Technivorm Moccamaster · Model KBGV Select

Why: Excellent brewer; plastic water reservoir, plastic brew basket, and plastic internal plumbing with stainless distribution arm. Food-safe plastics (no BPA/BPS/BPF/phthalates per brand) still fail plastic-free brew-path rule.
