Best Coffee Machines
The quality of a morning coffee can make or break your day. So for coffee lovers, it's crucial that you find a coffee maker or espresso machine that makes coffee just the way you like it. A reliable model feels like an investment, a terrible one like daylight robbery. Here's a quick overview of the different types of coffee machines and makers on the market to help you:
Read More...Drip These are simple, easy coffee makers. Coffee is placed in a filter and water is run over it, with the extracted brew dripping into the container below. They come in both automatic and manual versions.
Manual / Semi-Automatic If you are a true coffee enthusiast or you want barista-level coffee at home, this is the type of coffee machine for you. You can adjust every aspect of your coffee, such as the fineness of your grind or amount of water used.
Capsule Coffee Machines These automatic coffee pod machines are very easy to use; place a capsule or pod of ground coffee in a machine and it produces a shot of coffee.
Fully Automatic These are coffee machines that do everything for you, from freshly grinding coffee beans and frothing your milk. Simply put your cup under the spout of the machine and press a button.
Moka Pots & Percolator These are the classic stovetop coffee makers (available in electric versions as well now) that were common in households before automatic, drip and espresso coffee machines came along. Small, cheap and easy to use, the coffee percolator or moka pot is also great for camping trips or travelling.
Built-in If you're undergoing a kitchen renovation and are serious about your coffee, these are the machines for you. They may be an expensive addition, but built in coffee machines fit seamlessly into the design of your kitchen without taking up valuable counter space.
If you choose a coffee machine that doesn't come with a grinder or milk frothing ability, here are some coffee grinders and milk frothers to choose from. Also, when you take your coffee to go, help reduce waste and keep our environment clean by investing in a reusable coffee cup or travel mug.
Choosing the best coffee machine for you isn't always easy when there are plenty to choose from, but we have many reviews to help you. Once you've made your decision, come back and write a review - it'll help others too!
