Best coffee machine 2022: reviews of our top 15 Looking for the best coffee machines? We’ve reviewed each and every one of the top 15 in our guide, from bean-to-cup to simple filter machines, and here are our top picks. Whether you want a pod machine for one-touch brews each and every day, or a completely customizable morning cappuccino with an automatic machine, there’s something for everyone in our guide. Below you’ll find beautiful machines from Smeg, Nespresso, Melitta, Breville, Sage, De’Longhi, and illy. If you’re willing to invest, we recommend buying the best bean-to-cup coffee machines. They’ll grind your coffee beans and brew them in one go, and many come with automatic milk steaming or a steam wand for honing those barista skills. They save you the effort of buying a coffee grinder for using fresh beans each and every day, and have less waste than the best pod coffee machines. If you want an affordable coffee machine, you can choose a pod or ground coffee machine. These save you the effort of buying a machine with a mechanism, which cuts down on cost up-front. However, if you want a coffee machine for a super fresh brew, a bean-to-cup offers some distinct advantages. How we selected the best coffee machines Image credit: David Giles The coffee machines featured in this guide have all been tested as you would use them at home. We’ve considered the type of coffee machine – pod coffee machine, bean-to-cup coffee machine, filter coffee machines and espresso coffee machines – to cater for the varying household demands. With this comes the job of deciphering usability, maintenance, the amount of space the machine takes up, upfront costs and running costs. It’s (not) been a hard job! We like coffee as much as you probably do, maybe even a shot more. Keep scrolling to see which of the best coffee machines in the UK made our shortlist. The handy pricing widget underneath the products will ALWAYS display the best price, too, so you don’t need to go elsewhere to track down a good deal either. Best coffee machine 2022 1. Breville Bijou Espresso Machine The best coffee machine for homemade espresso Best for: espresso or long coffeeType of coffee: groundPressure: 15 barNo. of cups: up to 2What we like: • Continuous extraction • High quality steam wand • Stylish brushed finish What we don’t like: • Low filter can get in the way Make any type of coffee with the Breville Bijou Espresso Machine. It has a high-quality steam wand which is perfect for texturising milk, and there are two filters to choose from, which is great for having single or double shots of espresso. You need to wait for your coffee machine to heat up before twisting the dial to the left, which will continuously extract hot coffee until you switch it back. This will be good for some, and not so good for others. Some will prefer an exact espresso measurement, whereas others will just want a long coffee to fill up their favourite mug. Using grounds, you can easily tamp and twist to secure your filter with the included scoop and tamper. There is no jug included, but it will be easy to buy one for cheap online. Just press the steam milk button and wait for it to stop flashing before twisting the dial to the right and clearing out the wand. Then, it’s easy to create that high-pressure whirlpool to achieve that perfectly hot milk with a creamy latte finish. If we have a complaint, it’s that the filter hangs quite low and can get in the way of some taller mugs. We did have to fill up a smaller mug and then pour into a longer latte mug to make some drinks. For the money, this is a brilliant coffee machine.

De’Longhi Dinamica Plus ECAM370 Best high-end bean to cup coffee machine Best for: making a coffee from scratchType of coffee: beansPressure: 19 barNo. of cups: 2What we like: • Super quick to heat up • Easy to use • Impressive milk frothing What we don’t like: • Needs regular self-cleaning As you can probably tell, we are BIG fans of coffee so we’re easily impressed when we find a machine which can grind, brew and make a delicious drink in one go. This is a pretty expensive coffee machine – we give you that – but if you are a regular punter down at the local coffee house then you’ll soon earn your money back with one of these. You’ll also have coffee on tap which is a welcomed relief with all that working from home and homeschooling the majority of us have been doing for the past year or so. The burr grinder will work its magic on coffee beans of your choice which can be adjusted, if needed. It’ll heat up in about three seconds so you won’t be waiting long for your next caffeine-fix. And no need to worry about hand-steaming your coffee, because the automatic milk steaming is perfectly adjusted for eacn and every drink. You can also choose between different drink sizes and strengths, or save a custom preset of your favourite blend to make sure you have your perfect brew each and every morning.
