The Best coffee machines for home (check out this site)

There is no one-size-fits-all coffee machine. We've rounded up our top picks for the home, from a super-automatic that grinds and packs your beans, to semi-automatics that give you the best control over your espresso.

The Breville Oracle Touch strikes the perfect balance between automatizing the process and making you proficient in the art of making espresso. This is our top choice for a bean-to-cup machine.

1. Rocket Appartamento

Rocket Appartamento is a top choice for those who wish to make espresso at home without having to make huge sacrifices in terms quality. This prosumer espresso machine is designed with a limited counter space in mind and combines outstanding build quality with 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 your milk and brew coffee machine makes at same time.

The machine is also beautiful and has a circular design on the side panel with engraved steam and hot water spouts. This is an update to Rocket's traditional design that is already impressive for a compact appliance. It also has the black gauge of pressure in the boiler to let you know when the boiler is ready to use.

The drip tray and the water reservoir tray are smaller on this machine than most other models. It is important to be careful when emptying and refilling the machine. This is especially the case if you use it frequently. This is a sacrifice that results in smaller footprint. This is not an issue that is specific to this model.

This machine is able to handle the demands of your coffee making machine. We recommend purchasing a high-quality grinder, such as the Baratza Sette Gante, to improve consistency and taste. You can also pair this machine with the Rocket portafilter to help improve the process of tamping.

As a prosumer espresso machine, the Rocket Appartamento is capable of making some great drinks, and is easy to create latte art. It's important to know that this machine isn't intended for novices. There is a slight learning curve for those who upgrade from appliance-grade espresso machines. The heat exchanger is tricky to handle and you'll need to learn how to do cooling flushes.

Both the Lelit Bianca as well as the Rocket Appartamento have the option to connect to an water source, which allows you to always be able to drink cold, filtered water. The latter, however, comes with a 2.25-liter water tank, which could be more difficult to refill than its competitors.

2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie

This machine is built to Lavazza's high standards. The machine can reach the temperature for brewing quickly, which means you can make your first cup in just 35 second. The water tank is able to be filled, as the lid can be removed to make the large hole. You can even fill it up with tap water if you want.

The Lavazza A Modo Mio is the smallest of the models, but it packs a punch. It's priced less than PS100 at retail which is less than the Nespresso Essenza or similar machines from SMEG or Desea. The Jolie is a great alternative for those who do not have the space or funds for a traditional espresso machine however, they still want to enjoy an authentic Italian espresso.

The Jolie is simple to use and occupies very small counter space. You only need to press one button to start the machine and again to begin dispensing your chosen brew. The button is illuminated to let you know the amount you've consumed. You can also stop the process if you want to drink the pod in smaller quantities.

There's no steam wand included on this model, however you can use an optional milk frother (available separately) to add some creamy froth if you want. It's also quiet and can be used to make coffee in a small kitchen or work space.

They aren't expensive, but there's a wide variety of blends to choose from that will satisfy everyone from the mildest to the most demanding espresso drinkers. They are readily available in many supermarkets, along with regular ground coffee and coffee beans and you can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods online.

The Jolie and Milk is a smart-looking capsule machine with an integrated milk warmer and a frother. It comes in a box with a 75cm power cord and plug, a quick-guide and warranty sheet, and a test box of nine Lavazza pods which include six roasted (two Qualita Rossa, two Lungo Dolce and two Delizioso) and two decaffeinated (Dek Cremoso). The machine is small enough to be stored on a flat surface or slipped under your cupboard.

3. Breville BES870XL

The Breville Barista Express appears to be a costly espresso machine. If you're willing and able learn to use it this is a fantastic home espresso maker. It's far superior to most of the more expensive models. It's the best value in its class, and is particularly suitable for beginners who don't have an espresso grinder yet. This could easily set them back another $100 or more.

This model sits right below the top of the line for Breville (their Oracle is the most expensive at $2,199) However, it's an excellent option for baristas at home who are on a tight budget. It delivers plenty of tweakable features, and has a built-in burr grinder, making the entire experience more affordable. It's also a single boiler machine that means it can only be used for steaming or brewing at the same time.

Breville, a relative newcomer on the market for espresso machines, has swiftly earned a reputation for its high-quality appliances. This machine is no exception and it comes with enough control to let aspiring baristas improve their skills without spending hundreds more than necessary.

The unit has its flaws. For instance, the hopper on this model is placed on the side of the unit, instead of being on top. This isn't really significant, but it can be a little annoying if you're trying disperse multiple shots at a time. The rear position of the tank makes it difficult to know how much liquid is left.

If you're willing to learn how to master the Breville Barista Express, it's an ideal, all-purpose machine for anyone who loves espresso at home. The only drawback is the price, which could be a deterrent for some buyers. If you're looking for an affordable alternative, we suggest the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both machines are similar in capability and offer a bit more control than the Barista Express. However, they are a fraction of the cost.

4. OXO Brew 9-Cup

A high-tech smart coffee maker with a user-friendly interface that produces great coffee. Its sleek stainless steel design and backlit LED screen give a sophisticated design to your kitchen. It has a single dial that allows you to set the amount of cups. There are two settings available: 2-4 cups and 5-9 cups. The brewing process is similar to pour-over, which most coffee enthusiasts believe makes the best-tasting cheap coffee machine. The water is heated to a perfect temperature and then poured over grounds with a shower-head for uniform saturation. The coffee that is brewed is stored in the double-walled thermal carafe and can be stored for up to 60 min. The pause and pour function allows you to remove the carafe in brewing and fill your cup to the brim. The machine stops the brewing process and displays a red light on its LED interface, until you return the carafe. The machine then begins the brewing process.

The OXO Brew 9-Cup is certified by SCAA, that means it is in compliance with the strict standards of SCAA's technical standards. The brew cycles are the same as those of the Bodum Bistro and Technivorm Moccamaster 741 but it lets you control the temperature and brewing times.

In our tests, the OXO Brew 9-Cup produced excellent drip coffee and a full-carafe in 7 minutes and 41 seconds. This is a little more than the time that the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster calls for, but it is within the time range that coffee experts suggest for making a quality cup.

It also requires that you grind your own beans prior to brewing. You can use a manual coffee grinder or go for a more automated model, such as the Baratza Encore, which has different grind settings and an hopper that can hold whole beans.

The only downside is that the carafe as well as the water reservoir aren't dishwasher-safe, which could be a issue for certain users. The stainless steel can be cleaned by hand. The OXO Brew 9-Cup's sleek design and user-friendly interface make it one of the top contenders among best drip coffee makers.
