Moccamaster just launched a new colorway for 2026, and it might be my favorite yet

The Technivorm Moccamaster KBGV Select takes pride of place amongst the best coffee makers we've ever tested. This iconic drip coffee maker is a real classic for a reason, holding its spot for well over four years. But, while it's incredibly low-tech with straightforward controls, the Moccamaster also loves to have fun when it comes to color.

And for the brand's 2026 Color of the Year, it's gone vibrant and incredibly bold with a coral shade that screams the sun is finally shining. And it has been given an appropriate name to boot – Sorbet.

The Dutch-made Technivorm Moccamaster KBGV Select is one of the most sophisticated home coffee machines you can buy. And after unveiling the 2026 Color of the Year, you can grab it in this vibrant coral shade that the brand says: "symbolizes vitality and refreshment".

Why I'll be picking one up

This is the third year in a row that the iconic coffee maker brand has released an annual, limited edition Color of the Year, which it has coined: "A warm, energetic shade that radiates optimism and cheerfulness without being too flashy." And that is music to my ears.

While the brand is no stranger to color (far from it), it's lovely to see a new shade that fully embraces spring and summer trends and offers something a little different from the previous years' Ocean and Apricot, or the other 22 colors it's available in all year round.

Of course, it's also the features that the Technivorm Moccamaster KBGV Select has that make it seriously appealing, like its innovative brew features and a heated carafe base. With the new Sorbet shade, I think it's finally time to move this drip coffee maker from my 'to buy list' to my home.

The Moccamaster is certainly setting a trend, releasing its Color of the Year models in limited quantities without being repeated. And if there's anything that will make me jump on a trend, it's the idea that if I don't act fast, I'll miss out entirely.

So, if like me, you're considering picking it up before it's too late, you can grab it for $369 at Moccamaster, while stocks last.
