45 seconds: The Nespresso VertuoLine
Pop a domed capsule into the chamber, press a button and voilà! An insanely rich cup of coffee (or shot of espresso) in under a minute. For those in a time crunch, it’s a no-brainer.

Coffee connoisseurs have long preferred Chemex’s pour-over method—a process that involves placing grounds in
a cone-shaped filter and soaking them in hot water.

Patience is a virtue when it comes to cold brewing. The device operates at a glacial pace—one drip per second—but after six hours, you’re left with four smooth, flavorful cups of cold java.
