The Best Coffee Machines For Home
There's no universally-fit-all coffee maker. This is why we've compiled our favorite picks for your home, from a super-automatic that grinds and packs your beans, to a semiautomatic that gives you the most control over your espresso.
The Breville Oracle Touch is the perfect blend between automation and needing to be able to master the art of espresso-making. It's our top choice for a bean-to-cup machine.
1. Rocket Appartamento
Rocket Appartamento is a top choice for those who want to make espresso at home without having to make big sacrifices in terms of quality. This espresso machine for prosumers is designed with the smallest counter space in mind. It offers top-quality build and a very small footprint. It is equipped with a 1.8-liter copper heat exchange boiler and commercial E61 group head, so you can steam milk and make espresso simultaneously.
The machine looks stunning as well, and has a round side panel insert with engraved hot water and steam spouts. This is an update to Rocket's classic design, which is already impressive for a compact appliance. It also has a black boiler pressure gauge to show when the boiler is ready for use.
The water reservoir and drip tray are smaller on this machine than other models. It is important be cautious when emptying and re-filling the machine. This is particularly true if you use it frequently. This is a cost that is a result of having less footprint. This is not an issue that is specific to this model.
This machine can easily handle the demands of your coffee. We recommend buying a good grinder, like the Baratza Sette Giante, to improve consistency and flavor. You can also use this machine in conjunction with the Rocket portafilter to improve the tamping process.
Rocket Appartamento, as a prosumer machine, can make excellent drinks and is easy to create Latte arts. It's important to know that this machine was not designed for novices. There is a slight learning curve for those who upgrade from appliance-grade espresso machines. The heat exchanger is difficult to work with and you'll need to learn how to perform cooling flushes.
Both the Lelit Bianca and the Rocket Appartamento allow connecting to a water source, which means you'll always have cold, fresh filtered water on hand for your drinks. The latter has a 2.25-liter water tank, which is more difficult to refill than some of its competitors.
2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie
As you would expect from the Lavazza machine this one was made with quality in mind. It is quick to reach brewing temperature, allowing you to make your first cup of coffee in less than 35 seconds. The water tank is also fast and easy to refill by removing the lid completely to create a large opening. You can fill it with tap water should you wish.
The Lavazza A Modo Mio is the smallest model in the models, but it packs a punch. It's priced less than PS100 at full price - that's less than the Nespresso Essenza or similar machines coffee from SMEG or Desea. This makes the Jolie an ideal choice for those with a limited budget or space to buy coffee machine a traditional espresso maker, but who would like to experience the pleasure of real Italian espresso.
The Jolie is extremely simple to use and takes up just a little counter space. You only need to press a single button to activate the machine, and then press it again to begin dispensing your chosen pod. There's a backlight that's on the button to ensure that you are able to see clearly the amount of dispensed and you can choose to stop the process at any time in case you prefer drinking your pod in smaller doses.
There's no steam wand included on this model, however you can make use of an optional milk frother (available separately) to add some creamy froth, if you'd like. It's also quiet and can be used to make coffee in a small coffee machine kitchen or work space.
They aren't expensive, but there's a variety of blends to choose from to satisfy everyone from mildest to the most demanding espresso drinkers. You can find them in most supermarkets, along with regular grounds coffee and coffee machines small beans. You can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio Compatible pods online.
The Jolie and milk is a sleek capsule machine that comes with an integrated milk warmer. It includes a 75cm plug and power cable, a warranty document along with a quick guide and a tester pack comprising nine Lavazza pods. Six are roasted (two Qualita Rossa and two Lungo Dolce) and two are decaffeinated. The machine is small enough to fit under a cupboard or flat surfaces.
3. Breville BES870XL
At first glance, the Breville Barista Express looks like an espresso maker that's beyond the budget of a majority of consumers. If you're willing to learn how to use it, then this is a great at-home espresso maker. It's more efficient than most of the more expensive models. It's an excellent price for the class and is particularly useful for those who are new to the field and don't have an espresso machine that costs up to $100.
This model sits right in the middle of the line for Breville (their Oracle is the most expensive model at $2,199) However, it's a solid choice for baristas at home on a budget. It has a lot of customizable features, and even an integrated burr mill to make it more affordable. It's also a single boiler machine, meaning it can only handle one thing at the same time.
Despite being a relatively newcomer to the market for espresso machines, Breville has quickly made an impact by offering top-quality equipment. This machine is no different and it comes with enough control to let new baristas improve their abilities without spending a lot more than necessary.
The unit does not come without its quirks. The hopper is on the side, not on the top of the model. It's not a big problem, but it could be a problem if you wish to dispense several shots at once. The rear position of the tank makes it difficult to know how much liquid remains.
If you're willing to put in some time to learn how to make use of the Breville Barista Express then it's an excellent choice for anyone who loves espresso at home. The only drawback to the Breville Barista Express is the price which could be a stumbling block for certain buyers. If you're looking for an affordable option, we recommend the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both are equally powerful and provide a bit more control than the Barista Express, but they'll cost you a fraction of what this Breville model does.
4. OXO Brew 9-Cup
A high-tech, smart coffee maker that makes excellent coffee with a simple user interface. Its sleek stainless steel design and backlit LED display add an elegant appearance to your kitchen. It comes with one dial that allows you to set the amount of cups. There are two settings available: 2-4 cups and 5-9 cups. Its brewing process is similar to pour-over, which most coffee machine enthusiasts believe is the best tasting coffee. The water is heated up to the perfect temperature and then evenly poured over the coffee grounds with shower heads. The coffee that is brewed is collected in the double-walled thermal carafe that can be kept for up to 60 min. The pause-and-pour function lets you to take the carafe out while making your coffee and filling it with the right amount. The machine stops the brewing process and displays an red light on its LED interface, until you return the carafe. The machine then begins brewing.
The OXO Brew 9-Cup coffee maker is an SCAA-certified coffee maker that means it is in compliance with the strict standards of SCAA's technical standards. The brew cycles it uses are the same as those of the Bodum Bistro and the Technivorm Moccamaster 741 but it gives you more control over temperature and brewing times.
In our tests, the OXO Brew 9 Cup produced an excellent pot of drip coffee that filled a carafe full in just 7 minutes and 41 seconds. That's a little longer than the 6 minutes or less that the Bonavita Connoisseur and the Moccamaster require, but it falls within the range that experts in the field recommend for a good cup of drip.
You should also grind your own beans prior to brewing. You can make use of a manual coffee grinder, or go for a more automated model such as the Baratza Encore, which has multiple grind settings and an hopper that can hold whole beans.
The only downside to this product is that it's not dishwasher safe. This could be a problem for some customers. The stainless steel is easily cleaned by hand, however. The OXO Brew 9-Cup's sleek style and user-friendly interface make it an undisputed contender among the top drip coffee makers.
