A Moccamaster is one of the few coffee makers you can keep alive almost indefinitely, because Moccamaster USA sells nearly every part separately: brew baskets, glass and thermal carafes, lids, and even a repair kit for the automatic drip-stop. The 1.25 liter glass carafe fits the KBGV Select, KBG, CD, and CDG models, so one spare covers the most common brewers. Order by your model name, not by guesswork, and the five year warranty on the brewer itself (stated on the KBGV Select page) keeps the electrical side covered.
The parts Moccamaster sells and what they fix
| Part | What failing looks like | Fit notes |
|---|---|---|
| Glass carafe, 1.25 L | Cracked or broken carafe | One carafe fits KBGV Select, KBG, CD, and CDG |
| Thermal carafe, 1.25 L | Dents, lost lid, poor heat retention | For thermal models; brew-thru and travel lids sold separately |
| Automatic drip-stop brew basket | Basket cracked or drip-stop stuck | Complete basket, sold as a unit |
| Drip-stop repair kit | Basket fine, drip-stop leaks or sticks | Cheaper than a whole basket |
| Brew basket lid | Warped or lost lid | Sized to the standard brew basket |
| Carafe lids | Lost or cracked lid | Glass carafe lid and thermal brew-thru lid are different parts |

Why parts beat replacement here
The brewer itself is a simple machine: a copper heating element, a glass tube, and gravity. The parts that die are the ones you handle every day, and those are exactly the ones sold as spares. A dropped carafe or a cracked brew basket is a small order, not a new machine. The KBGV Select runs about $369 new, so replacing a broken carafe instead of the whole brewer is the easiest money you will save this year.
Order by model, not by looks
Moccamaster names parts by model family. The 1.25 liter glass carafe is listed for KBGV Select, KBG, CD, and CDG; the KBT and thermal models take the thermal carafe instead, and the Cup-One and Grand use their own filters and baskets entirely. Check the model plate on the base of your brewer before ordering. If your machine came with the manual drip-stop basket rather than the automatic one, those are separate listings too.
The drip-stop is the part that actually wears
The moving part in a Moccamaster is the drip-stop in the brew basket. When it starts seeping after you pull the carafe, or sticks closed and floods the basket, that is not a machine failure. Moccamaster sells both a complete replacement basket and a repair kit for the drip-stop mechanism itself. Start with the kit if the basket body is intact. While you are at it, a descale pass fixes most slow-brew complaints; see how to descale a Moccamaster.

FAQ
Can you buy replacement parts for a Moccamaster? Yes. Moccamaster USA sells brew baskets, glass and thermal carafes, lids, and a drip-stop repair kit as individual parts, so a broken carafe or sticky drip-stop is a small order rather than a new machine.
Which carafe fits the Moccamaster KBGV Select? The 1.25 liter glass carafe listed for KBGV Select, KBG, CD, and CDG models. Thermal models use the separate 1.25 liter thermal carafe with its own brew-thru lid.
Why does my Moccamaster brew basket leak after brewing? The drip-stop mechanism in the basket is worn or gummed up. Clean it first; if it still seeps, Moccamaster sells a drip-stop repair kit and a complete replacement basket.
