Best Coffee Making Machine

[Earthworm Jim]

Hi All

just want some advice really on what coffee machine to get as I am a coffee drinker I am more into the whole Latte and Capaccino side of coffee instead of the filter coffee, so what good house hold machines are out there for making a good latte?

I can thoroughly recommend a Nespresso machine, definitely buy the Aeroccino (from Nespresso) if you're into your latte's/cappuccino's.

All down to your budget. If you are feeling pretty flush, then go for a fancy bean to cup machine with a milk frothing jug.
Pricey!

We've got a Tassimo and it makes great Coffee, Tea, Hot Chocolate etc!
But if you've got the budget get a proper italian coffee machine.

Some of the best coffee you can get is via a proper espresso machine such as a Gaggia classic, or Rancillo Silvia (Budget end of scale). It takes patience to learn how to pull a decent cuppa though, but once you do , its the best you can get. its also worth looking at a grinder, so your coffee is a fresh as can be.

I use a Gaggia classic, and an Iberital MC2 grinder (HD0866*Iberital*MC2*Auto*::*Iberital*MC2*Grinders* ::*Coffee*Grinders*::*UK*Coffee*Suppliers*-*Happy*Donkey) and get great coffee. Have a gander at Freshly roasted coffee from Hasbean for you freshly roasted beans :-)

This little set of emails is also very good to teach more about coffee.. Coffee 101 by Has Bean Coffee Ltd Home Coffee Course

This one is certainly looking good, what does the aerochino do? Is that a milk frother?

One word: Jura

I'm going with drunkeh on this one.

The rancilio silva has lots of good things said about it on the web.

I would go with that one....my local O'Briens uses them and they

make the nicest latte

Yeah, the Aeroccino froths &/or heats milk & works very well

There's a lot of 'snobism' when it comes to coffee & coffee makers but if all you want is a good cup of coffee with the minimum of fuss (no faffing about with grinders etc ) then Nespresso is for you.

Nespresso has a serious reputation & after reading articles like The cult of Nespresso: Could it really be the best cup of coffee money can buy? - The Independent I bought the 'Le cube' & have happily used it everyday since!
