The Best Coffee Machines For Home

There's no one-size-fits-all coffee maker. That's why we've rounded up our favorite picks for your home, ranging 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 a perfect balance between automatizing the process while making you familiar with 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 wish to make espresso at home without making big sacrifices in terms of quality. This espresso machine for the prosumer is designed with a limited counter space in mind and is built to last with a high-end build quality and a very small footprint. It comes equipped with a 1.8-liter copper heat exchange boiler and commercial E61 group heads so that you can steam milk and make espresso simultaneously.

The machine looks great as well, and has an insert for the side of the machine with engravings of steam and hot water spouts. This is a new take on the classic look of Rocket and is already impressive for a machine that is so small. It also comes with the black pressure gauge, which indicates when the boiler is ready for use.

The drip tray and the water reservoir tray are smaller on this model than other models. You will need be extra cautious when emptying and refilling the machine. This is especially true in the event that you frequently use it. This is a sacrifice that results in less footprint. This isn't something that is unique to this model.

You can still brew a lot of coffee with this machine, and it will easily keep up with your demands. We recommend purchasing a high-quality grinder, such as the Baratza Sette Giante, to improve consistency and taste. You can also pair this machine with an Rocket portafilter to enhance the grinding process.

As a professional espresso machine The Rocket Appartamento is capable of making great drinks, and it's simple to make latte art. However, it's worth noting that the machine was not designed for beginners and there's an enlightening curve for those upgrading from appliance-grade machines. The heat exchange boiler could be a bit difficult to manage and you'll need to master the basics of 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 be capable of drinking cold brew coffee makers and purified water. The latter model has smaller 2.25-liter tank that is harder to refill.

2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie

As you would expect from the Lavazza machine, this one is designed with quality in mind. It is quick to reach brewing temperature, which allows you to make your first cup of coffee in just 35 seconds. The water tank is quick and simple to refill and the lid can be removed completely to make a wide opening. You can fill it with tap water, depending on what you prefer.

The Lavazza A Modo Mio is the smallest of the range, but it is a powerful machine. When you buy it at full price, it costs under PS100 which is less than the Nespresso Essenza and similar machines from SMEG and Desea. This makes the Jolie an excellent choice for those without the budget or space for an espresso maker, but who want to get their fix of authentic Italian espresso.

The Jolie is easy to use and requires little counter space. Pressing a single button will activate the machine. After pressing it again, it will start dispensing the specific pod you've chosen. The button has a backlight so you can see how much you have consumed. You can also manually stop the process, should you prefer to consume the pod in smaller portions.

There's no steam wand on this model, however you can add a 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 kitchen workspace.

The pods aren't inexpensive, but they come in a range of blends that will suit everyone - from the mildest espresso drinker to the most demanding. They are available in most supermarkets along with regular coffee beans and ground coffee and you can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods online.

The Jolie and milk is a sleek capsule machine with an integrated milk warmer. It includes a 75cm plug and power cable, a warranty document, a quick guide, and a test pack of nine Lavazza pods. Six are roasted (two Qualita Rossa and two Lungo Dolce) and two are decaffeinated. The machine itself is small enough to be stored on a flat surface or slipped under your cabinet.

3. Breville BES870XL

At first glance, the Breville Barista Express looks like an espresso maker that's out of the budget of many average consumers. If you're willing and able to learn how to use it, then this is a fantastic home espresso maker. It performs better than many of the more expensive models. It's an excellent value for the money and is especially useful for those who are new to the field and don't have an espresso machine that costs up to $100.

This model is priced below the top-of-the-line Breville Oracle (the most expensive at $2199) however it is an excellent choice for baristas 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 that means it can only be used for brewing or steaming at one time.

Despite being a relatively newcomer to the market of espresso machines, Breville has quickly made a name for themselves by offering top-quality equipment. This machine is no exception, and it has just enough control to let aspiring baristas develop their abilities without spending more than necessary.

The unit has its flaws. For instance, the hopper in this model is located on the side of the unit instead of on top. This isn't a huge deal, but it can be a little frustrating if you're trying to disperse multiple shots at a time. It's also difficult to know how much water is left in the tank, because of its position at the rear.

But if you're prepared to learn how to master the Breville Barista Express, it's a great, do-it-all appliance for anyone who loves espresso at home. The only downside is the price, which can be a nagging issue for some buyers. If you're looking for a lower-cost alternative, read our review of the Gaggia Classic or the La Pavoni Impresso. Both are similarly capable and offer a bit more control than the Barista Express, but they'll cost a fraction of what this Breville model does.

4. OXO Brew 9 Cup

A high-tech, smart coffee machine that makes great coffee with a simple interface. The sleek stainless steel design with backlit LED screens creates a chic kitchen design. It comes with a single dial that allows you to set the amount of cups. There are two settings available: 2-4 cups and 5-9 cups. Its brewing technique is similar to pour-over brewing, which coffee enthusiasts believe makes the most flavorful coffee. The water is heated up to the right temperature, then evenly distributed over the coffee grounds using shower heads. The brewed coffee is then collected in the double-walled thermal carafe that can be kept for up to 60 min. The pause-and pour feature lets you to remove the carafe during brewing and then fill your cup. The machine pauses the brewing process and displays the red light on its LED interface, until you return the carafe. Then, it resumes the brewing process.

The OXO 9-Cup coffee maker is SCAA certified, Best Coffee Machines which means that it meets the organization’s strict standards in terms of technology. Its brew cycles are about the same as those of the Bodum Bistro and the Technivorm Moccamaster 741 but it gives you more control over temperature and brewing time.

In our tests we found that the OXO Brew 9 Cup produced an excellent cup of drip coffee, with the carafe filled in 7 minutes and 41 seconds. This is slightly more than the 6 minutes that the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster calls for, but it is within the range of time that coffee experts suggest for making a quality cup.

It also requires that you grind your own beans before making. You can choose an manual grinder or a more automated model like the Baratza Encore. It has various grind settings, as well as it has a hopper that can be used for whole beans.

The only downside is that the carafe and water reservoirs aren't dishwasher safe this could be a issue for certain users. The stainless steel is still easy to clean by hand, however. The OXO 9-Cup is an excellent contender for the best drip coffee maker because of its sleek coffee makers design and simple to use interface.
