A grind-and-brew coffee maker puts a grinder, a brew basket and a carafe or cup spot into one machine, so whole beans become coffee with one setup. The trade-off is that the grinder shares space with the brewer, so grinder type and cleaning access matter.
The six machines below include blade and burr grinders, full carafes and single-cup brewing. Sizes, wattage and features come from each product’s listing page. We have not used these machines ourselves, and freshness and performance claims are the makers’ own.

The 6 Best Coffee Makers With Grinders
1. Cuisinart DGB-950BCC Burr Grind and Brew 10-Cup
A stainless steel machine with a burr mill, a sealed hopper holding about 226.8 grams, a double-wall thermal carafe, a carbon water filter, strength choices of strong, medium or mild and a 24-hour program. The listing gives a 230 volt figure that looks like an error, so check the product page.
Suits: a thermal carafe with a burr grinder. Strengths: a sealed hopper and a thermal carafe. Weaknesses: the tallest unit here at 18 inches. Skip it if cabinet height is limited.

A 12-cup glass carafe machine with a blade grinder, a grind-off option for pre-ground coffee, a brew pause, a 1-4 cup setting, a permanent gold-tone filter and a charcoal water filter. It draws 1025 watts. The listing weight of 16 ounces is clearly not the whole machine.
Suits: a full pot at a modest height. Strengths: a grind-off option and a 12-cup carafe. Weaknesses: a blade rather than burr grinder. Skip it if you want burr grinding.

Grind and Brew FAQ
Burr or blade?
Burr grinders crush beans between surfaces and give more even pieces. Blades chop. The DGB-400 uses a blade; the other five list burrs.
Can I use pre-ground coffee?
The Cuisinart DGB-400 and Kenmore list a grind-off option for that.
The Short Version
For a burr grinder and thermal carafe, the DGB-950BCC. For a blade grinder and 12 cups, the DGB-400. For one cup at a time, the DGB-2SS. For eight grind settings, the Gevi. For one-touch sizes, the TrueBrew. For a half-pound hopper, the Kenmore.
