Buying an espresso machine guide

If you regularly grab a coffee on the way to work, a home espresso machine can be a good investment. But how much time and effort do you want to devote to your everyday cup? There are a few different considerations when choosing a home espresso machine.

All espresso machines require some maintenance: removing the coffee grounds or empty pods, cleaning the drip tray, filling the water compartment, etc. You should also consider whether or not you want to maintain a detachable brew group. This is the part of the machine that you snap the portafilter into.

Some espresso machines have removable brew groups that can be easily opened for cleaning or inspection. Other machines have a built-in brew group designed to automatically clean itself. These can be difficult to look at if something goes wrong.

  • What kind of drinks do you prefer? Small cappuccinos? big latte? Pure espresso or Americanos?
  • How many coffees do you make at once? This will help you understand the size of the brew and/or steam kettle you need.
  • How big is the room where you will place your machines? Are you planning to connect this machine directly to a water source now or in the future?

In summary, the 5 key elements to consider when choosing an espresso machine are:

  • budget
  • Type of espresso drink
  • frequency and amount of drinks
  • kitchen area
  • mill selection
