Your Family Will Be Thankful For Getting This Best Capsule Coffee Machine

The Best Capsule Coffee Machines of 2017

This machine is perfect for Nespresso lovers who want to get rid of the tiny capsules. It utilizes larger Vertuo capsules and reads the barcodes of each capsule to automatically adjust the settings to the size of your drink you want.

It is able to save custom drinks to a button for super-speedy brewing, and offers espresso, ristretto and americano options. It also has a height-adjustable drip tray and sleep mode that is energy-efficient.

1. Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Nespresso Vertuo Plus was one of two new machines that came into the Nespresso line in 2017. It is narrower than the other models and is able to fit into smaller spaces. It comes in more colours.

The machine utilizes the latest incarnation of Nespresso's pod-based coffee system. Vertuo Plus spins the capsule at up to 7000rpm, instead of cutting it to release hot water into it. This mixes ground coffee with water to create an alcoholic drink. The capsule drips out of the 18 smaller holes and into the central hole which gives your drink a richer crema. The machine is able to make espresso and longer lungo-style drinks.

It reads the barcode located at the bottom of every capsule to customize its blending process for each. It isn't possible to use capsules from other brands with Vertuo plus, as only Nespresso capsules come with a barcode.

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

The machine comes with a 40-ounce reservoir of water and it is able to automatically release capsules that are used internally. It also has a heating 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 avoid an abundance of waste, be sure to have a good recycling system for the used pods.

2. Lavazza Vertuo Pop

This compact machine made by Lavazza can add a touch of elegance to your coffee area. The clever Centrifusion Technology scans the barcode on your chosen capsule to provide the right amount of water you need for your perfect cup. It comes in a variety colors and can make up five different sizes, including double espresso.

The machine is a bit more sophisticated than Nespresso machines, since it offers the option to heat and dispense milk. It's still more secure than a traditional home espresso machine and is a great choice for those who aren't at ease using a manual espresso maker. The Jolie is equipped with a large lever which opens and closes the capsule slot. A 0.9-litre tank can be inserted behind it. The large capsule bin can hold up to ten empty capsules.

Like the Vertuo Plus, it's also easy to use and warms up in just a few minutes. It's also quiet and consumes very little energy, so you'll save money on your electric bill.

The only drawback to this model is that it can only use Lavazza's own capsules rather than the range of Nespresso pods. This may not be an issue for the majority of people, but could be for those who prefer switching brands. If you opt for this machine, make sure that you get a package of 100 reusable capsules with the purchase. These capsules are not cheap, but they will save you money over time since they are cheaper than Nespresso pods.

3. Tassimo My Way

Fully automatic machine with an extremely simple operation. It has a large cup platform that can be set at different heights, to fit tall glasses and little espresso cups, and it's easy to pick the settings you prefer using numerals on the buttons. You can also save four different variations of your own making it a great option for couples and families with differing preferences. The machine is energy efficient and comes with a handy indicator to let you know when the water tank is full or descaling is needed (which requires a service disc that's placed in a slot with instructions).

It's designed to work as all Tassimo systems do, with the company's branded barcoded T Discs which include everything from cold drinks, coffee machines for pods, tea, hot chocolate, and even frothy, cold milk. Intellibrew technology automatically detects the type of drink and adjusts the time as well as temperature and strength to match. This prevents you from accidentally adjusting in a way that isn't sensible, for example, altering the strength of a cup of coffee made using milk, and helps keep your drink tasting consistently perfect.

The My Way 2 has a wide selection of flavours to choose from, including more than 50 brands that are famous, including Costa favorites, Kenco, L'OR and Cadbury's. You can even make frothy lattes and cappuccinos and refreshing Americanos and delicious flat whites.

It is easy to clean and comes with a standby mode which saves energy. The water tank can be easily removed and filled with fresh water. It does not have a built-in mechanism to dispose of used T Discs. Instead, it has partnered with Podback, a recycling company that allows you to recycle the discs with an on-site program.

4. Jolie

A small pod coffee maker that's been available for a few years, Jolie stands up well against newer models. Its slim design takes up less counter space than larger machines, and its controls are easy to use. With a single button, you can select between espresso and lungo. A cup holder that can be removed allows you to use standard cups, or even mugs.

It's not cheap, but the Jolie is a great choice for anyone after a basic capsule coffee maker that makes high-quality espresso with little effort. A handy steam wand comes included too that allows you to add milk to an espresso or cappuccino. It's also among the quietest machines we've seen, so it won't disturb early morning family sleep-ins.

SMEG is known for its beautiful kitchen equipment and this retro-styled coffee pod coffee machines machine is no different (choose between black, cream or red). It's small enough to fit between other appliances on your counter top but doesn't skimp on functionality. One press of a button can make either a shorter espresso or a longer lungo, while its energy saving mode is put into standby after two minutes of inactivity or seven days of inactivity.

If you're a lover of SMEG's 1950s design aesthetic or you want to tailor your coffee machines with pods more than the major brands, the Jolie is a good option to consider. It comes with an app that offers more barista recipes as well as a Bloom & Brew setting that prepares the capsule to be wet and infuses it for a better cup, while other settings let you control the amount of water you use and adjust the coffee temperature and pressure.

5. Infinissima

The Infinissima is the ideal machine for those who want a quick morning espresso or a cup of coffee that can fuel their day. It's a sleek automatic capsule machine that is easy to use and provides an array of beverages to choose from. It has a unique design inspired by the infinity symbol and includes the globular pod holder as well as a triangular water tank, which looks like modern art.

The Infinissima's quirky design is cool however, it doesn't compromise on quality. It makes use of an advanced system of high-pressure to extract the most flavor from each capsule of coffee and produces professional-quality cafe style crema. It also has a fast heat-up time so that your drinks are ready in just a few minutes. It also has a large, removable 1.2L water tank, so you can make multiple cups before having to refill.

Another excellent feature is Infinissima's capacity to brew hot and cold drinks. Its adjustable temperature settings can provide you with a variety of options, from iced coffee to a latte macchiato. It also has the cup warming plate that can keep your drink warm and keep it from cooling too fast. The Infinissima has a timer that will shut off the machine after a specified amount of time. This helps to improve energy efficiency.

The Infinissima has simple controls and an LCD screen that lets you select your beverage. It also includes a self-rising bottle holder that makes it easy to insert capsules and refill the water tank. In addition it comes with a convenient cleaning kit and a handy reusable filter that allows you to reuse capsules that you've used. If you're looking for a top capsule coffee maker in Qatar, the Infinissima is the best choice.
