The Best Coffee Machines For Home Baristas

The purchase of a coffee maker lets you enjoy a range of caffeinated drinks in the at-home convenience of your own. There's a machine to suit every budget and taste, whether you prefer pods or filters.

The bean-to-cup machine is a reliable machine. It offers a level of control that is uncommon for a premium model. It's a great choice to enjoy the convenience of one-touch brewing and milky options with no fuss.

1. Breville Barista Max

A mid-priced bean-to-cup that has a built-in grinder, the Breville Barista Max+ VCF152 is a good choice for those who want to learn how to make coffee in the correct method (rather than using pods or an espresso machine) and for those who want to upgrade from a lesser-than-capable manual machine. It can make both high-quality espresso and milk that has a good texture.

The Barista max+ comes with a huge drip pan and a separate trough to collect grounds that have been spilled, and a storage space for extra accessories. It's also a solid-looking and well-built machine that has the removable parts slid into place with ease. It's available in a stylish silver, and a more traditional stainless steel.

It's designed with a professional look and is influenced by commercial machines. Its features include Temp IQ Shot Control, that provides precise water temperature for every cup and a Tap & Go burr grinder on-demand that has 30 settings. It also employs a pre-infusion technique that softly infuses ground beans to give the most balanced, full-bodied flavor.

There's a helpful guide in the instruction manual that explains how to calibrate the machine, which is essential to ensure that it is calibrated correctly to ensure a consistent, excellent cup of espresso. It also explains the decalcification process that is required to ensure that your machine is in good condition.

The controls are easy to use. A dial allows you to set the machine for hot water by turning the knob to the left or to begin dispensing steam by turning the knob. The coffee spout is of sufficient space to fit into a standard espresso glass or latte-style cup but not a jug, so you'll need to prepare and dispense your milk before pouring it into the larger cups for cappuccinos or lattes.

Breville only offers an one-year warranty on this machine. If something goes wrong after that period, you will be responsible for the repair cost. This could be a deterrent for certain people, especially considering the price of the machine when purchased new.

2. Smeg Bean-to-Cup

Smeg is synonymous with retro kitchen appliances and 1950's fashion. But what's notable is that until recently, the brand's collection didn't include a bean-to-cup machine. This was until the sleek BCC02 model launched in September.

The bean-to-cup machine lets you prepare your favorite drinks with the one button. This includes ristretto, espresso, as well as hot water for tea and other hot beverages. You simply need to place the desired amount of beans in the hopper and select your beverage with the buttons on the bottom. Then press to brew. It's simple and quick with only a few inputs and comes with an alert that informs you when it's time to descale the machine or empty the grounds drawer.

Our barista from the past tried the Smeg Bean-to-Cup. She was impressed by the ease of use and the fact that it can make milky coffees such as cappuccino and the latte. She was surprised at how quickly it heated up and how it was silent. She also liked that the brewing process only took 45 seconds and that you can select the strength you prefer for each drink, meaning there's no need to keep watching the process. The only issue was that the BCC02 does not include a metal milk jug which you'll need to purchase separately.

This coffee maker does not require packets or pods made of plastic. You'll save money and do your part to protect the environment. The Smeg Bean-toCup coffee machine is available in a variety of covetable matt colours including taupe and clear white, smouldering red and recently, a new addition to the range the full black. You can match your coffee machine to your kitchen's decor and effortlessly transform your cooking space at the same time. If you're a fan of Smeg, this is a machine that you must definitely look into.
