The Best Coffee Machines For Home

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

The Breville Oracle Touch achieves the perfect balance between automation and having to know the ropes 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 looking to make espresso at home without having to make significant sacrifices in terms of quality. This prosumer espresso machine is designed with the smallest counter space in mind and is built to last with a high-end build quality and the smallest footprint. It comes with an 1.8-liter copper heat exchange boiler and commercial E61 group head, so you can steam milk and make espresso at the same time.

The machine looks fantastic too, and comes with a round side panel insert with engravings of steam and hot water spouts. This is a new take on the classic design of Rocket that is already impressive for a machine that is so small. It also includes 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 machine than other models. You will need be extra cautious when emptying and re-filling the machine. This is especially the case in the event that you frequently use it. This is a natural tradeoff for having smaller footprint, however, and not an issue that is unique to this model.

This machine is capable of handling your coffee demands. That being said, we would recommend purchasing a high-quality grinder, like the Baratza Sette Giante, for greater consistency and flavor. You can also use the machine in conjunction with a Rocket Portafilter to improve the tamping.

Rocket Appartamento, as a prosumer machine, can make some great drinks and it is easy to create latte arts. However, it's important to remember that the machine isn't designed for novices, and there is an enlightening curve for those upgrading from appliance-grade machines. The heat exchanger can be tricky to handle and you'll need to master the art of cooling flushes.

Both the Lelit Bianca and the Rocket Appartamento allow connecting to a water source, which allows you to always have fresh, cold filtered water on hand for your drinks. The latter comes with a 2.25-liter water tank, which is more difficult to fill than its competitors.

2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie

This machine is built to Lavazza's highest standards. It is quick to reach brewing temperature, allowing you to prepare your first cup of coffee in less than 35 minutes. The water tank is quick and simple to refill by removing the lid completely to create a large opening. You can also fill it with tap water if you prefer.

The Lavazza A Modo Mio is the smallest model in the series, yet it is a powerful machine. It costs less than PS100 at retail which is less than the Nespresso Essenza or similar machines from SMEG or Desea. This makes the Jolie an ideal choice for those without the budget or space for an espresso maker, but who would like to experience the pleasure of real Italian espresso.

The Jolie is incredibly simple to operate and takes up only a tiny amount of counter space. You just need to press a single button to activate the machine and again to start dispensing the chosen pod. The button is illuminated so that you can see how much you have consumed. You can also stop the process, should you prefer to consume the pod in smaller amounts.

This model does not come with a steam wand, but you can add some creamy frosting to your milk by using an optional milk frother. The machine is quite quiet, too, and can be used in a small workspace or in a kitchen with flatshare without disturbing others.

Pods aren't inexpensive, but there's a wide variety of blends to choose from to suit everyone from the mildest to the most demanding espresso drinkers. They are readily available in many supermarkets alongside regular coffee machines makes beans and ground coffee machine coffee and you can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods online.

The Jolie and milk is a sleek capsule with an integrated milk warmer. It comes with a 75cm plug and power cable, a warranty card and a quick reference, and a tester pack of nine Lavazza pods. Six are roasted (two Qualita Rossa and two Lungo Dolce) and two are decaffeinated. The machine is small enough to be placed under a cupboard or the floor.

3. Breville BES870XL

The Breville Barista Express appears to be a high-priced espresso machine. If you're willing and able to master it, then this is a great at-home espresso maker. It's far superior to most of the more expensive models. It's a great price for the class and is especially useful for beginners who don't yet have an espresso maker that costs up to $100.

This model sits right in the middle of the range for Breville (their Oracle is the most expensive model at $2,199), but it's still a solid choice for home baristas on a budget. It comes with plenty of adjustable features, and includes an integrated burr grinder, household coffee machines making the whole experience much 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 of espresso machines, Breville has quickly made a name for themselves by offering top-quality equipment. This machine isn't an exception, and it offers just enough adjustable control to let baristas who are aspiring burnish their skills without spending hundreds of dollars more than they should.

The unit is not without its quirks. For instance, the hopper in this model is located on the side of the unit instead of on top--which isn't significant, but it can be a little frustrating if you're trying to give multiple shots at once. The rear position of the tank makes it difficult to know the amount of liquid left.

But if you're prepared to spend some time learning 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 to the Breville Barista Express is its cost, which may be a deterrent for some buyers. If you're looking for a low-cost option, we recommend the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both machines are similar in capability and offer a little more control than the Barista Express. However, they cost a fraction of the price.

4. OXO Brew 9 Cup

A high-tech smart household coffee Machines machine with a user-friendly interface that produces excellent coffee. The sleek stainless steel design and backlit LED display creates a chic kitchen design. It has a single dial to program the amount of cups you want it to make and includes the 2-4 cup setting as well as a 5-9 cup setting. Its brewing technique is similar to pour-over, which many coffee drip machine lovers believe makes the best-tasting coffee. The water is heated to the ideal temperature, and then poured evenly over the coffee grounds using a shower head. 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 remove the carafe while making your coffee and filling it with the right amount. The machine pauses the brewing process and shows an red light on its LED interface, until you return the carafe. Then, it resumes brewing.

The OXO 9-Cup coffee maker has been SCAA certified, meaning it complies with the strict standards for technical quality. The brew cycles are the same as those of the Bodum Bistro and Technivorm Moccamaster 741 but it allows for 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 a carafe full in just 7 minutes 41 seconds. This is a bit more than the 6 minutes the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster requires, but within the range of time that coffee experts suggest for making a quality cup.

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

The only issue is that the carafe and water reservoir aren't dishwasher safe, which could be a hassle for some users. The stainless steel is easily cleaned by hand, though. The OXO 9-Cup is an excellent contender for the top drip coffee maker because of its sleek design and easy-to use interface.
