Prime Day Has Some Strong Coffee Deals. Here Are Our Favorites
Coffee always tastes better when you know you’re saving money on making it. Shopping holidays like Prime Day are historically the best times to buy espresso and coffee makers at their lowest prices of the year, and this event is no different—we’ve found legitimately good discounts on the coffee devices our team has tested and loved. Below are the best deals on top picks from our guides to the Best Espresso Machines, Best Pod Coffee Makers, Best Drip Coffee Makers, and Best Coffee Grinders. (Plus some bonus energy drink deals for those who need even more caffeine.)
Be sure to also check out our guides to the Absolute Best Deals and Best Deals Under $50, which we will be updating regularly over the next 48 hours of Prime Big Deal Days.
Featured Deals
Best Espresso Machine Deals
This is one of the most popular espresso machines of all time—and a long-standing top pick in our guide to the Best Espresso Machines. The pressure is consistent, its steam wand is great, and our reviewers appreciated the built-in grinder. WIRED Gear editor Julian Chokkattu has been using his Barista Express without incident for more than seven years.

Ninja
Luxe Cafe Premier Series Espresso Machine
We gave this semiautomatic staple a 7/10 for its beginner-friendliness and excellent milk frother that can help even newbies make quality cappuccinos and lattes.
Best Pod Machine Deals
Though Keurig’s latest flagship machine ditched the controversial K-Cups, these plastic pods are still a beloved convenience for many, and for them, we recommend the K-Café. It comes with a milk frother for fancier drinks, as well as BrewID, which can identify your pod and suggest custom brew settings. WIRED reviewer Louryn Strampe also appreciated that it was easy to clean.
Bruvi
BV-01 Brewer
This is WIRED reviewer Louryn Strampe’s favorite coffee maker she’s ever used. Like Keurig, it uses proprietary pods, but they’re designed to biodegrade in a landfill.
Keurig
K-Brew + Chill Coffee Maker
Prefer iced coffee? There’s a pod machine for that. We compared hot and cold coffees on this machine using the same K-Cups, and they came out equally strong.
Best Drip Coffee and Aeropress Deals
-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Pete-Cottell.jpg)
Our favorite drip coffee maker overall, the minimalist Aiden has been a status symbol (and WIRED favorite) since its release in 2024. WIRED reviewer Matthew Korfhage says it nails the intersection between a great cup of coffee and an easy cup of coffee.
Xbloom
Studio Coffee Machine
We quite liked this all-in-one programmable brewer, which features a built-in scale and grinder and control via an app.
AeroPress
Coffee Maker, Original
AeroPress has its fervent devotees (many of them in WIRED offices)—now you can join them for just $30.
Best Coffee Grinder Deals
This is the least expensive grinder WIRED reviewer Matthew Korfhage recommends to make good coffee—it’s got 30 settings for everything from espresso to French press. This price is for the silver metal version shown, but the blue plastic version is even cheaper at $88.
Fellow
Ode Gen 2
Our top tested choice for pour-over or drip coffee, Fellow’s Ode Gen 2 is both quiet and keeps grounds static-free.

Kingrinder
K6 Manual Coffee Grinder
If you want precision grounds for less, you’re going to have to do the work yourself, but this hand grinder had better consistency of grind than any flat burr we tested under $1,000.
If You’re More of an Energy Drink Person
No judgment—many of us are. Sometimes a cold, fizzy drink just sounds better than something hot and potentially dehydrating. If this is sometimes you, Prime Days are often the best time to stock up on a flat of your favorite.

Celsius
Functional Essential Energy Drink, Sparkling Orange (12-pack)
WIRED contributor Pete Cottell says Celsius is punchy without a cloying aftertaste and it does wonders in masking the medicinal notes that are present in similarly potent drinks. It’s also “an absolute unit when it comes to the caffeine-to-volume ratio.”
Bloom Nutrition
Sparkling Energy Drink Variety Pack
“All the aesthetics of a very-online wellness girlie product without any of the questionable flavors or adjuncts,” says WIRED contributor Pete Cottell.
Lucky Energy Drink
Orange Drizzle (12-Pack)
“This is the energy drink for people who think they hate energy drinks,” says WIRED contributor Pete Cottell.

C4
Performance Energy Drink (12-Pack)
“Halfway through the can I got happy feet and swapped my Aeron chair for the walking pad. Two miles and 35 minutes later I was still zooming, so I took my dog for a 2-mile run and felt like a million bucks at the end.” says WIRED contributor Pete Cottell.
