See What Best Capsule Coffee Machine Tricks The Celebs Are Using

The Best Capsule Coffee Machines of 2017

If you're a fan of Nespresso but would like to move away from their tiny capsules, look no further than this machine. It is compatible with larger Vertuo capsules, reading the barcode to automatically adjust settings to suit your desired drink size.

It comes with espresso and ristretto options and the option of saving drinks you've created. It also comes with a adjustable drip tray that can be adjusted in height and a energy-saving sleep mode.

1. Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Nespresso Vertuo Plus was one of two new machines that joined the Nespresso line in the year 2017. It is smaller than other models and can fit into smaller spaces. And it comes with a broader selection of colors, too.

The machine uses the latest incarnation of Nespresso's pod-based coffee system. Instead of piercing the capsule in order to pump hot water through it, the Vertuo Plus uses Centrifusion to spin the Capsule Coffee Machine at speeds up to 7000rpm. This mixes ground coffee with water to make an alcoholic drink. The capsule then drips out of an opening in the middle and through 18 smaller holes, resulting in an extremely thick crema to your drink. The machine can brew both espresso drinks and lungo-style drinks that are longer in length.

It reads the barcode located at the bottom of every capsule to adjust the method of blending for each. It isn't possible to use capsules from other brands that use Vertuo plus, as only Nespresso capsules are barcode-encoded.

There's just one button to press across the top of the machine and it's a breeze to operate. Press the silver lever at the front to raise it up and reveal the space for your selected pod. Drop the pod into place, then press the single button for the brewing.

The machine comes with a 40-ounce reservoir of water that it automatically releases capsules used up from the inside. It also has a warm up time of only 15-20 seconds and an energy-saving automatic shut-off after nine minutes of inactivity. This is a neat device that is reliable and simple to use with minimal maintenance. If you want to minimize the production of waste from this kind of machine, be sure to create a good recycling scheme for the pods you have used.

2. Lavazza Vertuo Pop

This compact machine made by Lavazza can bring a touch of class to your coffee capsule machine table. Its clever Centrifusion technology scans the barcode on your chosen capsule and dispenses exactly the right amount water to make the perfect cup. It's available in a variety of colors and makes up to five different sizes hot or iced drink, including double espresso.

This machine is slightly more sophisticated than Nespresso machines, since it has the ability to heat and serve milk. However, it's much more foolproof than a traditional home espresso maker and is an excellent choice for those who aren't comfortable using a manual coffee maker. The Jolie comes with a large chrome lever that can be opened and closed by the capsule slot. A 0.9-litre tank can be inserted behind it. The large capsule bin can hold up to ten empty capsules.

Similar to the Vertuo Plus, it's also easy to use and heats up in just a few minutes. It's also quiet in operation and uses very little energy, making it an ideal choice for your electricity costs.

The only drawback to this model is that it only works with Lavazza's capsules, rather than the range of Nespresso capsules. This may not be an issue for most people but it could be an issue for those who are interested in switching brands. If you do decide to go with this machine, ensure you purchase a set of 100 reusable capsules with your purchase. These capsules aren't cheap, but they will save you money in the long run as they are cheaper than Nespresso pods.

3. Tassimo My Way

A fully automatic machine that is easy to use. It uses a wide cup platform that can be placed at different heights, to fit tall glasses and small espresso cups. It's easy to pick the settings you prefer using the numbered buttons. The machine can keep four different options. It's a great option for families and couples with different preferences. The machine is energy-efficient and there's an indicator that lets you know when the tank is empty or the need for descaling is present (which requires the use of a service disc, which is hidden in a slot with the instructions).

Like all machines from the Tassimo system is designed to be compatible with the company's brand, barcoded T-Discs that include everything from coffee, tea and hot chocolate to cold drinks and frothy milk. Intellibrew technology detects the type of drink and adjusts the brewing time as well as temperature and strength to suit. This helps you avoid altering settings that aren't sensible like the strength of coffee when you add milk. It also ensures your beverage tastes consistently good.

The My Way 2 offers many different flavors including Costa favorite Kenco, L'OR, and Cadbury's. You can even make frothy lattes and cappuccinos, as well as refreshing Americanos and indulgent flat whites.

It is easy to clean and comes with a standby mode which saves energy. The water tank is easy to remove and is filled with fresh tap water. In contrast to other pod machines it doesn't have a built-in method for disposing of the used T discs, however it has partnered with Podback to let you recycle them in a local scheme.

4. Jolie

Jolie is a tiny pod coffee maker that has been on market since only a few years. It holds its own against more modern models. Its slimline design occupies less counter space than larger machines and its controls are easy to operate. You can choose between espresso or lungo at the push of the button and a cup holder lets you use regular cups or mugs, too.

The Jolie isn't cheap, however it's a good option for anyone seeking a simple capsule espresso maker that makes excellent espresso with the least amount of effort. A handy steam wand comes included too, making it possible to add milk to an espresso or cappuccino. It's also one of the quietest we've tested which means it won't interfere with sleep-ins for the family in the early morning.

SMEG is renowned for its chic kitchen appliances and this retro-style coffee pod maker is no different (choose between cream, black or red). Compact enough to fit on your counter, but still functional. One press makes the long or short lungo. The energy saving mode is activated after two minutes and seven consecutive days of use.

If you're a fan of the SMEG's 1950s-inspired design style or you want to customize your coffee more than the major brands, the Jolie is worth a look. It has a Bloom & Brew feature that pre-wets the capsule and adds flavor to it to make a better cup. Other settings allow you to control the amount water used and also adjust the temperature of the coffee and also adjust the pressure.

5. Infinissima
