The Best Coffee Machines For Home

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

The Breville Oracle Touch strikes the perfect balance between automation and the need to understand the basics of espresso-making. This is our top choice for a bean-to-cup machine.

1. Rocket Appartamento

Rocket Appartamento is a fantastic choice for those who are looking to make espresso at their home without sacrificing quality. This espresso machine with a small footprint was designed for those who have little counter space. It combines excellent build quality and a 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 at same simultaneously.

The machine looks stunning as well, and has an insert for the side of the machine with the engraved steam and hot water spouts. This is a modernization of Rocket's traditional design which is already impressive for a compact appliance. It also comes with an black gauge for boiler pressure to indicate when the boiler is ready for use.

One downside to this small machine is that the drip tray and reservoir for water are smaller than most other machines. You will need be extra cautious when emptying and re-filling the machine. This is especially the case when you are using it often. This is a sacrifice that is a result of having a smaller footprint. This is not something that is unique to this model.

You can still brew plenty of automatic coffee machines with this machine, and it is able to easily meet the demands. However, we would suggest purchasing a high-quality grinder, such as the Baratza Sette Gigante, for increased consistency and flavor. You can also use the machine in conjunction with an Rocket Portafilter to enhance tamping.

Rocket Appartamento, as a prosumer machine, can make delicious drinks and it is simple to make Latte arts. It is important to remember that this machine is not designed for novices. There is a slight learning curve for those upgrading from appliance-grade espresso machines. The heat exchanger can be difficult to operate and you'll have to learn how to do cooling flushes.

Both the Lelit Bianca and the Rocket Appartamento offer the option of connecting to a water supply, that means you will always have fresh, cold filtering water available for your drinks. The latter has a 2.25-liter water tank that is more difficult to refill than some of its competitors.

2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie

This machine is built to Lavazza's high standards. The machine reaches the brewing temperature quickly, so you can prepare your first cup in just 35 seconds. The water tank is also fast and easy to refill and the lid can be removed completely to reveal a large opening. You can fill it with tap water, if you like.

The Lavazza A Modo Mio is the smallest of the series, yet it is a powerful machine. At full cost, it's less than PS100 - which is less than the Nespresso Essenza and similar machines from SMEG and Desea. The Jolie is a great choice for those who don't have the space or budget for a traditional espresso machine, but nevertheless want to drink the authentic Italian espresso.

The Jolie is extremely easy to use and takes up only a tiny amount of counter space. Pressing one button will begin the process. After pressing it again, it will begin dispensing the pod you have selected. There's a backlight that's on the button so that you are able to see clearly how much has been dispensed and you can choose to manually stop the process in case you prefer drinking the pod in smaller amounts.

There's no steam wand on this model, but you can add a milk frother (available separately) to add some creamy froth, if you'd like. The machine is quiet also and can be used in a small space or in a flatshare kitchen without disturbing anyone else.

The pods are not cheap, but they come in a wide range of blends that can be used by all - from the lightest espresso drinker to the most demanding. They are available in most supermarkets, along with regular coffee beans and ground coffee and you can also purchase Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods on the internet.

The Jolie and Milk is a sleek capsule machine with an integrated milk warmer and frother. It includes a 75cm plug and power cable, a warranty sheet, a quick guide, and a test pack of nine Lavazza pods. Six are roasts (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 learn to use it, then this is a great at-home espresso maker. It performs better than many of the more expensive models. It's an excellent value for its class and is particularly helpful for those who aren't experienced enough to have an espresso maker that can cost 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 option for baristas working on a tight 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, which means it can only be used for brewing or steaming at one time.

Despite being a relative newcomer to the espresso machine market, Breville has quickly made their mark with their high-quality appliances. This machine is no different and has enough control to let budding baristas improve their skills without spending hundreds more than necessary.

The unit is not without its quirks. For instance, the hopper on this model is positioned on the side of the unit, instead of on top--which isn't significant, but it can be annoying if you're trying give multiple shots at once. The rear-facing position of the tank makes it difficult to know how much liquid remains.

If you're willing to put in some time in learning how to make use of the Breville Barista Express then it's an excellent option for any espresso lover at home. The only downside is the cost, which can be a deterrent for certain buyers. If you're looking for an affordable option, we recommend the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both are similarly capable and provide 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 coffee machine professional machine that makes great coffee with a simple user interface. The sleek stainless steel design with backlit LED display creates a chic kitchen appearance. It features a single dial to program how many cups you want it to make and includes the 2-4 cup setting as well as a 5-9 cup setting. The brewing process is similar to pour-over brewing, which coffee lovers believe makes the best-tasting popular coffee machines. The water is heated up to the perfect temperature and then poured evenly over the coffee machines cheap grounds using a shower head. The coffee is stored in the double-walled thermal carafe that can be kept for up to 60 minutes. The pause-and-pour function lets you to take the carafe out while brewing and then fill your cup. The machine pauses the brewing process and shows the 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, which means that it meets the organization’s strict technical standards. The brew cycle is longer than the Bodum BISTRO and Technivorm Moccamaster KBT 741, however, it has more control over temperature, brewing time and also quality.

In our tests we found that the OXO Brew 9-Cup made a pot of excellent drip coffee and a full cup in 7 minutes and 41 seconds. This is a bit more than the 6 minutes the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster requires, but still within the range that coffee experts recommend to make a great cup.

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

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