Find the best coffee machine for you

Everyone enjoys their coffee differently and our sellers are happy to oblige! In this category you'll find several types of automated coffee machine so you can make your perfect cup, every time. Thanks to their proliferation in offices and family-run restaurants, the first type of coffee machine to come to your mind is likely the filter coffee machine.

Also known as drip machines, filter coffee machines are super simple. You fill a paper filter with the coffee grounds and place it in the machine, and when you turn it on, piping hot water is strained through the filter, depositing tasty coffee in the large jug at the bottom. And when we say large, we mean it: some filter machines can make up to 12 cups of coffee at once - they're ideal for large families and parties! They're also great for early mornings, since many have internal clocks. Load it up the night before and you can set it to start brewing with your morning alarm.

Filter machines will only make a standard black American style coffee, though. If you like your cup served with European flair, you'll need an espresso machine. These Italian icons drive water at a high pressure through a thick disk of finely ground coffee to form a thick, strong brew that's adored the world over. Many of the biggest brands in coffee make espresso machines, including Tassimo, Lavazza and De Longhi.

As well as offering bolder, darker brews, the advantage of espresso machines is that you can introduce different textures to your coffee. This is thanks to every barista's secret weapon, frothed milk, the key element (apart from the coffee) to lattes, cappuccinos and more. If you love yourself a latte, make sure to get one with a built in milk frother, or buy a standalone frother from our dedicated category.

That said, for the freshest possible cup of coffee, you'll want a bean to cup coffee machine. These machines do all of the grinding and brewing at once, guaranteeing that none of the verve and flavour of your beans is lost, providing the most authentic cup of coffee possible. These machines are a must for true coffee fans.

Making sure your coffee machine lasts

Considering making an investment in your favourite morning beverage? On average, coffee machines can last up to an impressive five years, so it's certainly worth paying for a premium model if a cup of coffee is part of your daily routine. However, if you take care of your coffee machine with regular cleaning and descaling, you could increase the lifespan of your countertop appliance by up to another five years - lasting a mammoth ten years in total! So, if you want to get the most out of your money, the key is to take good care of your coffee machine.
