We've compiled our top picks, from an automatic that grinds your beans and packs them into semiautomatics that give you the most control over your espresso. + +The Breville Oracle Touch strikes the perfect balance between automating the process and making you familiar with the art of espresso-making. It's the best bean-to-cup machine we've seen. + +1. Rocket Appartamento + +Rocket Appartamento makes a great choice for those looking to make espresso at home without having to compromise on quality. This espresso machine with a small footprint was designed for those with little counter space. It combines excellent build quality and a small footprint. It comes equipped with an 1.8-liter copper heat exchange boiler and commercial E61 group head so you can steam milk while making espresso simultaneously. + +The machine looks fantastic as well and features a round side panel insert with the engraved steam and hot water spouts. This is an update to Rocket's traditional design, which is already impressive for a compact appliance. It also has a black pressure gauge that indicates when the boiler is ready to use. + +The drip tray and the water reservoir tray are smaller on this machine than others. This means you'll have to be vigilant about emptying and refilling the machine, especially when you are using it regularly. This is a natural trade-off for having smaller footprint, however this is not a problem specific to this model. + +This machine is capable of handling your coffee needs. However, we would suggest investing in a good grinder, such as the Baratza Sette Giante, for increased consistency and flavor. You can also use the machine in conjunction with a Rocket Portafilter to improve the tamping. + +As a prosumer espresso machine, the Rocket Appartamento is capable of making some great drinks, and it's simple to make Latte art. However, it's worth noting that the machine was not designed for beginners, and there is a bit of a learning curve for those upgrading from appliance-grade machines. The heat exchanger can be difficult to work with, and you'll need to learn how to do cooling flushes. + +Both the Lelit Bianca as well as the Rocket Appartamento have the option to connect to an water source, which allows you to always be able to drink cold pure, purified water. The latter, however, has a 2.25-liter water tank, which is more difficult to refill than some of its competitors. + +2. Lavazza A Modo Mio Jolie + +This machine is built to Lavazza's high standards. The machine can reach the temperature of brewing quickly, so you can make your first cup in less than 35 seconds. The water tank can be easily refilled, as the lid can be removed to create the large hole. You can also fill it with tap water if you want. + +This is the smallest machine within the Lavazza A Modo Mio range however, it still packs a punch. It's priced less than PS100 at retail and is much less expensive than the Nespresso Essenza or similar machines from SMEG or Desea. This makes the Jolie a great option for those with a limited budget or space for an espresso maker, but are looking to enjoy the benefits of authentic Italian espresso. + +The Jolie is extremely easy to use and occupies just a little counter space. You just need to press one button to turn on the machine, then again to start dispensing your chosen brew. There's a backlight on the button so that you are able to see clearly how much has been dispensed and you can choose to stop the process at any time if you prefer to drink your pod in smaller doses. + +There's no steam wand available on this model, but you can use an optional milk frother (available separately) to add some creamy froth if you like. The machine is quiet, too, and can be used in a small workspace or in a flatshare kitchen without disturbing anyone else. + +They aren't expensive, but there's an array of blends available to suit everyone from the mildest to the most demanding espresso drinkers. They are readily available in many supermarkets along with regular ground coffee and coffee beans and you can also buy Lavazza A Modo Mio compatible pods on the internet. + +The Jolie and Milk is a smart-looking capsule machine that includes a milk warmer and a frother. It comes with a 75cm power cord and plug, a quick-guide and warranty sheet and a tester box that contains nine Lavazza pods: six roasts (two Qualita Rossa, two Lungo Dolce and two Delizioso) and two decaffeinated (Dek Cremoso). The machine itself is small enough to be stored on an even surface or placed under your cabinet. + +3. Breville BES870XL + +The Breville Barista Express appears to be an expensive espresso machine. If you're willing to master it and make it work, then this is a fantastic home espresso maker. It's more efficient than many of the more expensive models. It's a good value for the money and is particularly helpful for beginners who don't yet have an espresso machine, which can cost up to $100. + +The model is priced lower than the most expensive Breville Oracle (the most expensive at $2199), but is still an excellent option for baristas on a budget. It comes with a variety of customizable features and even an integrated burr mill to make it more affordable. It is also a single-boiler machine, meaning it can only handle one thing at a time. + +Breville is a relative newcomer on the market for espresso machines, has rapidly gained a reputation as a top-quality appliances. This machine is no exception and offers enough adjustable control to let aspiring baristas improve their skills without spending more than they need to. + +The unit has its quirks. The hopper is located on the side, not the top, of this model. It's not a big deal, but can be frustrating if you want to dispense several shots at once. The rear position of the tank makes it difficult to see how much liquid remains. + +If you're willing some time to learn how to make use of the Breville Barista Express then it's an excellent option for anyone who loves espresso at home. The only downside to the Breville Barista Express is the price, which may be a hindrance for some buyers. If you're looking for an affordable alternative, we recommend the Gaggia Classic and the La Pavoni Impresso. Both are equally powerful and offer a little more control than the Barista Express, but they'll cost only a fraction of the price. Breville model can do. + +4. OXO Brew 9 Cup + +A high-tech, smart coffee maker that produces great coffee with a simple user interface. Its sleek stainless steel design and backlit LED screen add a stylish design to your kitchen. It comes with a single dial to program the number of cups you would like to make. It comes with the 2-4 cup setting as well as a 5-9 cup setting. Its brewing technique is similar to pour over the grounds, which many coffee lovers believe produces the most delicious coffee. The water is heated up to the right temperature, then evenly distributed over the coffee grounds using a shower head. The coffee that is brewed is stored in a double-walled carafe, which can be stored for up to 60 minutes. The pause-and-pour feature allows you to remove the carafe during making your coffee and filling it with the right amount. The machine pauses the brewing process and displays a red carafe light on its LED interface until you return it. then resumes and finishes brewing. + +The OXO 9-Cup coffee maker comes SCAA certified, which means that it complies with the strict standards in terms of technology. The brew cycles are the same as the Bodum Bistro and Technivorm Moccamaster 741 but it gives you more control over temperature and brewing time. + +In our tests we found that the OXO Brew 9-Cup made an excellent drip coffee and a full-carafe of coffee in 7 minutes and 41 seconds. That's a little longer than the 6 minutes or less that the Bonavita Connoisseur and the Moccamaster require, but still within the range of time that coffee experts suggest for a decent cup of drip. + +You should also grind your own beans prior to brewing. You can use an old-fashioned coffee grinder or opt for a more automatic model such as the Baratza Encore, which has various grind settings as well as an hopper that can hold whole beans. + +The only drawback to this product is that it's not dishwasher safe. This could be a problem for some users. The stainless steel can be cleaned by hand. The OXO 9-Cup is a leading contender for the best drip coffee maker due to its sleek design and easy-to use interface. \ No newline at end of file
