Higher capacity is preferred for larger batches. Only single-value capacities with the same unit and basis are compared; ranges and mixed chamber/catch-cup figures are excluded. Missing or differently defined capacities: excluded from scoring.
How the score works
This is a preference-based comparison of published specifications, not a review rating or a score out of 100. Changing the priority changes which criteria count. A criterion is excluded for everyone if any selected model lacks comparable data. Larger burrs, higher RPM, price, evidence counts and taste claims do not automatically earn points.
Bars show the relative preference within this selection. Source links and the exact model configuration are available in Specifications and each model’s detail page. A leading specification does not establish better coffee, noise, retention or reliability.
