What to Look For When Choosing a Coffee Machine

My passion for coffee has reached a stage that I almost need it every single moment. In view of this, I have bought myself a coffee espresso machine.

Basically, there are three types of coffee machines.

The first type is the 100% automatic machine. Automatic machine saves you time of making coffee and therefore it is quite popular among office workers. I am sure many of us won't want to spend more than ten minutes just to get a cup of coffee ready in the early morning. Therefore, the demand for automatic machine is great.

The second type is the semi-automatic coffee machine. Unlike the automatic one, this kind of machine requires you to monitor it when making coffee. Obviously, the cost of it is much cheaper than the 100% automatic machine. However, this machine can still do a good job irregardless of some of its pitfalls.

The last one is those that needs you to operate it manually. This is not so popular as compared to the previous two types because it does not have the similar functions and it is much simpler in terms of design.

If you have done your research on the internet, you will find that there are many manufacturers of coffee machine. The more famous one are Krups, Bosch and Capersso. The coffee machines that are produced by these manufacturers can cost us more than thousand of dollars.

So, what should we look for when choosing a good coffee machine? If you are searching for an automatic machine, then it should have an integrated burr grinder, integrated frothier for lattes, high-wattage heater, high-pressure pump, high-capacity bean hopper, and finally automatic cleaning cycles.

Please keep in mind that you should not choose a coffee machine that comes with plastic parts as you need to use it with hot water when making your favorite coffee and it can be quite dangerous to our health.
