The Best Coffee Machines For Home

There's no one-size-fits-all coffee machine. We've rounded-up our top picks, from a superautomatic machine that grinds your beans and packs them to a semiautomatic which gives you the best control over your espresso.

The Breville Oracle Touch achieves the perfect balance between automation and the need to be able to master the art of espresso-making. It's the best bean-to-cup machine we've seen.

1. Rocket Appartamento

Rocket Appartamento is a top choice for those who want to make espresso at home, without making big sacrifices in terms of quality. This small coffee machine-footprint espresso machine was created for those with little counter space. It has a great build quality with a compact footprint.

This is a normal trade-off for having smaller footprint, however it is not a problem specific to this model.

You can still brew a lot of coffee with this machine, and it can easily keep up with the demands. We recommend investing in a quality grinder, like the Baratza Sette Giante to improve consistency and taste. You can also use this machine in conjunction with a Rocket portafilter to improve the grinding process.

They are available in most supermarkets, along with regular coffee beans and ground Coffee machines coffee and you can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods online.

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

The Breville Barista Express appears to be a high-priced espresso machine. If you're willing to learn to use it and make it work, then this is a great home espresso maker. It's more efficient than most of the more expensive models. It's a great value for the money and is especially useful for beginners who don't yet own an espresso machine that can cost up to $100.

This model is priced less than the top-of-the-line Breville Oracle (the most expensive at $2199) however it is a good choice for baristas who are on a budget. It delivers plenty of tweakable features, and has a built-in burr grinder to make the entire experience less expensive. It's also a single boiler machine that means it can only do brewing or steaming at one time.

Despite being a relatively newcomer to the market of espresso machines, Breville has quickly made an impact by offering top-quality equipment. This machine is no different, and it has just enough control to let budding baristas hone their abilities without spending a lot 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 on top. This isn't a huge deal however it can be annoying if you're trying give multiple shots at once. It's also not very easy to determine how much water remains in the tank, due to its rear placement.

If you're willing some time in learning how to use the Breville Barista Express then it's an excellent appliance for any espresso lover at home. The only downside to the Breville Barista Express is the price which could be a deterrent for some buyers. If you're looking for a budget option, we recommend the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both machines are comparable in their capabilities and provide a bit more control than the Barista Express. However, they cost a fraction of the cost.

4. OXO Brew 9-Cup

A high-tech smart coffee machine with a simple user interface that produces great coffee makers machines. Its sleek stainless steel design and backlit LED screen give a stylish appearance to your kitchen. It has only one dial to program the amount of cups you want it to make and includes the 2-4 cup setting and a 5-9 cup setting. The brewing process is similar to pour-over brewing, which coffee aficionados believe produces the best-tasting coffee. The water is heated up to the perfect temperature and then evenly distributed over the coffee grounds using a shower head. The coffee is stored in the double-walled thermal carafe, which can be stored for up to 60 minutes. The pause-and-pour function lets you remove the carafe while brewing and then fill your cup. The machine pauses the brewing process, and displays a red light on its LED interface until you return the carafe. The machine then begins brewing.

The OXO Brew 9-Cup is certified by SCAA, which means it complies with the rigorous standards of SCAA's technology. Its brew cycle is about as long as those of the Bodum BISTRO and the Technivorm Moccamaster KBT 741, however, it has more control over temperature, brewing time and also quality.

In our tests in our tests, the OXO Brew 9 Cup produced an excellent pot of drip coffee, with a carafe full in just 7 minutes 41 seconds. This is a bit more than the 6 minutes that the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster requires, but still within the time range that coffee experts recommend to make a good cup.

It also requires you to grind your own beans prior to making coffee. You can select an manual grinder or an automated model like the Baratza Encore. It has multiple grind settings, and a hopper for whole beans.
